यो जात एव प्रथमो मनस्वान् देवो देवान् क्रतुना पर्यमूषत् । यस्य शुष्माद् रोदसी अभ्यसेतां नृम्णस्य मह्ना स जनास इन्द्रः ॥१॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

He who, just born, chief God of lofty spirit by power and might became the Gods' protector, Before whose breath through greatness of his valour the two worlds trembled, He, O men, is Indra.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 2.12.1; the wording of this text may differ in places.
