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

Sing strength to Indra that shall set his chariot in the foremost place. Giver of room in closest fight, slayer of foes in shock of war, be thou our great encourager. Let the weak bowstrings break upon the bows of feeble enemies.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.133.1; the wording of this text may differ in places.
