RV 10.89.7

जघान वृत्रं स्वधितिर् वनेव रुरोज पुरो अरदन् न सिन्धून् । बिभेद गिरिं नवम् इन् न कुम्भम् आ गा इन्द्रो अकृणुत स्वयुग्भिः ॥

jaghāna vṛtraṃ svadhitir vaneva ruroja puro aradan na sindhūn | bibheda giriṃ navam in na kumbham ā gā indro akṛṇuta svayugbhiḥ ||

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

As an axe fells the tree so be slew Vrtra, brake down the strongholds and dug out the rivers. He cleft the mountain like a new-made pitcher. Indra brought forth the kine with his Companions.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
