Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.80.5

RV 1.80.5

इन्द्रो वृत्रस्य दोधतः सानुं वज्रेण हीळितः । अभिक्रम्याव जिघ्नते ऽपः सर्माय चोदयन्न् अर्चन्न् अनु स्वराज्यम् ॥

indro vṛtrasya dodhataḥ sānuṃ vajreṇa hīḷitaḥ | abhikramyāva jighnate 'paḥ sarmāya codayann arcann anu svarājyam ||

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

The wrathful Indra with his bolt of thunder rushing on the foe, Smote fierce on trembling Vrtra's back, and loosed the waters free to run, lauding his own imperial sway.
