Rig Veda 1.63.4: Mandala 1, Sukta 63, Mantra 4
Sukta 1.63
त्वं ह त्यदिन्द्र चोदीः सखा वृत्रं यद्वज्रिन्वृषकर्मन्नुभ्नाः । यद्ध शूर वृषमणः पराचैर्वि दस्यूँर्योनावकृतो वृथाषाट् ॥
tváṃ ha tyád indra codī́ḥ sákhā vṛtráṃ yád vajrin vṛṣa-karman ubhnā́ḥ | yád dha śūra vṛṣa-maṇaḥ parācáir ví dasyū́ṃr yónāv ákṛto vṛthāṣā́ṭ ||
You indeed, O Indra, impelled your comrade-force when, O wielder of the bolt, doer of the mighty work, you struck down Vṛtra. When, O hero, strong in delight of power, you drove apart the Dasyus and cast them down into the womb of obscurity—victorious over falsehood.
