Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.17.4

RV 4.17.4

सुवीरस् ते जनिता मन्यत द्यौर् इन्द्रस्य कर्ता स्वपस्तमो भूत् । य ईं जजान स्वर्यं सुवज्रम् अनपच्युतं सदसो न भूम ॥

suvīras te janitā manyata dyaur indrasya kartā svapastamo bhūt | ya īṃ jajāna svaryaṃ suvajram anapacyutaṃ sadaso na bhūma ||

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

Thy Father Dyaus esteemed himself a hero: most noble was the work of Indra's Maker, His who begat the strong bolt's Lord who roareth, immovable like earth from her foundation.
