RV 1.129.2

स श्रुधि यः स्मा पृतनासु कासु चिद् दक्षाय्य इन्द्र भरहूतये नृभिर् असि प्रतूर्तये नृभिः । यः शूरैः स्वः सनिता यो विप्रैर् वाजं तरुता । तम् ईशानास इरधन्त वाजिनम् पृक्षम् अत्यं न वाजिनम् ॥

sa śrudhi yaḥ smā pṛtanāsu kāsu cid dakṣāyya indra bharahūtaye nṛbhir asi pratūrtaye nṛbhiḥ | yaḥ śūraiḥ svaḥ sanitā yo viprair vājaṃ tarutā | tam īśānāsa iradhanta vājinam pṛkṣam atyaṃ na vājinam ||

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

Hear, Indra, thou whom men in every fight must call to show thy strength, for cry of battle with the men, with men of war for victory. He who with heroes wins the light, who with the singers gains the prize, Him the rich seek to gain even as a swift strong steed, even as a courser fleet and strong.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
