RV 1.55.3 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 1.55.3

त्वं तम् इन्द्र पर्वतं न भोजसे महो नृम्णस्य धर्मणाम् इरज्यसि । प्र वीर्येण देवताति चेकिते विश्वस्मा उग्रः कर्मणे पुरोहितः ॥

tvaṃ tam indra parvataṃ na bhojase maho nṛmṇasya dharmaṇām irajyasi | pra vīryeṇa devatāti cekite viśvasmā ugraḥ karmaṇe purohitaḥ ||

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

Thou swayest, Indra, all kinds of great manly power, so as to bend, as't were, even that famed mountain down. Foremost among the Gods is he through hero might, set in the van, the Strong One, for each arduous deed.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
