RV 1.52.8

जघन्वां उ हरिभिः सम्भृतक्रतव् इन्द्र वृत्रम् मनुषे गातुयन्न् अपः । अयच्छथा बाह्वोर् वज्रम् आयसम् अधारयो दिव्य् आ सूर्यं दृशे ॥

jaghanvāṃ u haribhiḥ sambhṛtakratav indra vṛtram manuṣe gātuyann apaḥ | ayacchathā bāhvor vajram āyasam adhārayo divy ā sūryaṃ dṛśe ||

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

When, Indra, thou whose power is linked with thy Bay Steeds hadst smitten Vrtra, causing floods to flow for man, Thou heldst in thine arms the metal thunderbolt, and settest in the heaven the Sun for all to see.
