Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 2.20.8

RV 2.20.8

तस्मै तवस्यम् अनु दायि सत्रेन्द्राय देवेभिर् अर्णसातौ । प्रति यद् अस्य वज्रम् बाह्वोर् धुर् हत्वी दस्यून् पुर आयसीर् नि तारीत् ॥

tasmai tavasyam anu dāyi satrendrāya devebhir arṇasātau | prati yad asya vajram bāhvor dhur hatvī dasyūn pura āyasīr ni tārīt ||

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

To him in might the Gods have ever yielded, to Indra in the tumult of the battle. When in his arms they laid the bolt, he slaughtered the Dasyus and cast down their forts of iron.
