RV 5.30.9

स्त्रियो हि दास आयुधानि चक्रे किम् मा करन्न् अबला अस्य सेनाः । अन्तर् ह्य् अख्यद् उभे अस्य धेने अथोप प्रैद् युधये दस्युम् इन्द्रः ॥

striyo hi dāsa āyudhāni cakre kim mā karann abalā asya senāḥ | antar hy akhyad ubhe asya dhene athopa praid yudhaye dasyum indraḥ ||

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

Women for weapons hath the Dasa taken, What injury can his feeble armies To me? Well he distinguished his two different voices, and Indra then advanced to fight the Dasyu.
