RV 4.20.6

गिरिर् न यः स्वतवां ऋष्व इन्द्रः सनाद् एव सहसे जात उग्रः । आदर्ता वज्रं स्थविरं न भीम उद्नेव कोशं वसुना न्यृष्टम् ॥

girir na yaḥ svatavāṃ ṛṣva indraḥ sanād eva sahase jāta ugraḥ | ādartā vajraṃ sthaviraṃ na bhīma udneva kośaṃ vasunā nyṛṣṭam ||

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

Him who in native strength is like a mountain, the lofty Indra born or old for conquest, Terrific wielder of the ancient thunder. filled full with splendour as a jar with water.
