Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.31.1

RV 5.31.1

इन्द्रो रथाय प्रवतं कृणोति यम् अध्यस्थान् मघवा वाजयन्तम् । यूथेव पश्वो व्य् उनोति गोपा अरिष्टो याति प्रथमः सिषासन् ॥

indro rathāya pravataṃ kṛṇoti yam adhyasthān maghavā vājayantam | yūtheva paśvo vy unoti gopā ariṣṭo yāti prathamaḥ siṣāsan ||

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

Maghavan Indra turns his chariot downward, the strength-displaying car which he hath mounted. Even as a herdsman driveth forth his cattle, he goeth, first, uninjured, fain for treasure.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
