Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 2.12.4

RV 2.12.4

येनेमा विश्वा च्यवना कृतानि यो दासं वर्णम् अधरं गुहाकः । श्वघ्नीव यो जिगीवांल् लक्षम् आदद् अर्यः पुष्टानि स जनास इन्द्रः ॥

yenemā viśvā cyavanā kṛtāni yo dāsaṃ varṇam adharaṃ guhākaḥ | śvaghnīva yo jigīvāṃl lakṣam ādad aryaḥ puṣṭāni sa janāsa indraḥ ||

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

By whom this universe was made to tremble, who chased away the humbled brood of demons, Who, like a gambler gathering his winnings seized the foe's riches, He, O men, is Indra.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
