Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.38

उरोष् ट इन्द्र राधसो विभ्वी रातिः शतक्रतो । अधा नो विश्वचर्षणे द्युम्ना सुक्षत्र मंहय ॥

uroṣ ṭa indra rādhaso vibhvī rātiḥ śatakrato | adhā no viśvacarṣaṇe dyumnā sukṣatra maṃhaya ||

Wide, Indra Satakratu, spreads the bounty of thine ample grace: So, Lord of fair dominion, Friend of all men, give us splendid wealth.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यद् ईम् इन्द्र श्रवाय्यम् इषं शविष्ठ दधिषे । पप्रथे दीर्घश्रुत्तमं हिरण्यवर्ण दुष्टरम् ॥

yad īm indra śravāyyam iṣaṃ śaviṣṭha dadhiṣe | paprathe dīrghaśruttamaṃ hiraṇyavarṇa duṣṭaram ||

The food which, Mightiest Indra, thou possessest worthy of renown Is bruited as most widely famed, invincible, O Golden-hued!

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

शुष्मासो ये ते अद्रिवो मेहना केतसापः । उभा देवाव् अभिष्टये दिवश् च ग्मश् च राजथः ॥

śuṣmāso ye te adrivo mehanā ketasāpaḥ | ubhā devāv abhiṣṭaye divaś ca gmaś ca rājathaḥ ||

O Darter of the Stone, the powers which readily obey thy will,- Divinities, both thou and they, ye rule, to guard them, earth and heaven.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

उतो नो अस्य कस्य चिद् दक्षस्य तव वृत्रहन् । अस्मभ्यं नृम्णम् आ भरास्मभ्यं नृमणस्यसे ॥

uto no asya kasya cid dakṣasya tava vṛtrahan | asmabhyaṃ nṛmṇam ā bharāsmabhyaṃ nṛmaṇasyase ||

And from whatever power of thine, O Vrtra-slayer, it may be, Bring thou to us heroic strength: thou hast a man's regard for us.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

नू त आभिर् अभिष्टिभिस् तव शर्मञ् छतक्रतो । इन्द्र स्याम सुगोपाः शूर स्याम सुगोपाः ॥

nū ta ābhir abhiṣṭibhis tava śarmañ chatakrato | indra syāma sugopāḥ śūra syāma sugopāḥ ||

In thy protection, with these aids of thine, O Lord of Hundred Powers, Indra, may we be guarded well, Hero, may we be guarded well.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
