RV 6.18.9 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 6.18.9

उदावता त्वक्षसा पन्यसा च वृत्रहत्याय रथम् इन्द्र तिष्ठ । धिष्व वज्रं हस्त आ दक्षिणत्राभि प्र मन्द पुरुदत्र मायाः ॥

udāvatā tvakṣasā panyasā ca vṛtrahatyāya ratham indra tiṣṭha | dhiṣva vajraṃ hasta ā dakṣiṇatrābhi pra manda purudatra māyāḥ ||

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

With saving might that must be praised and lauded, Indra, ascend thy car to smite down Vrtra. In thy right hand hold fast thy bolt of thunder, and weaken, Bounteous Lord, his art and magic.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
