Sukta 33
नाधृ॑ष॒ आ द॑धृषते धृषा॒णो धृ॑षि॒तः शवः॑ । पु॒रा यथा॑ व्य॒थिः श्रव॒ इन्द्र॑स्य॒ नाधृ॑षे॒ शवः॑
nā́dhṛṣa ā́ dadhṛṣate dhṛṣāṇó dhṛṣitáḥ śávaḥ | purā́ yáthā vyathíḥ śráva índrásya nā́dhṛṣe śávaḥ ||
Men dare to press against the unassailable; yet bold and whetted is his might. As of old, rout and renown are his—Indra’s, the unassailable—his force.
Ludzie odważają się naciskać na nie do zdobycia; jednak śmiała i wyostrzona jest Jego moc. Jak dawniej, porażka i sława są Jego, Indry, nie do zdobycia, Jego siła.
