RV 1.81.1

इन्द्रो मदाय वावृधे शवसे वृत्रहा नृभिः । तम् इन् महत्स्व् आजिषूतेम् अर्भे हवामहे स वाजेषु प्र नो ऽविषत् ॥

indro madāya vāvṛdhe śavase vṛtrahā nṛbhiḥ | tam in mahatsv ājiṣūtem arbhe havāmahe sa vājeṣu pra no 'viṣat ||

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

The men have lifted Indra up, the Vrtra slayer, to joy and strength: Him, verily, we invocate in battles whether great or small: be he our aid in deeds of might.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
