RV 6.24.8

न वीळवे नमते न स्थिराय न शर्धते दस्युजूताय स्तवान् । अज्रा इन्द्रस्य गिरयश् चिद् ऋष्वा गम्भीरे चिद् भवति गाधम् अस्मै ॥

na vīḷave namate na sthirāya na śardhate dasyujūtāya stavān | ajrā indrasya girayaś cid ṛṣvā gambhīre cid bhavati gādham asmai ||

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

Extolled, he bends not to the strong, the steadfast, nor to the bold incited by the Dasyu. High mountains are as level plains to Indra: even in the deep he finds firm ground to rest on.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
