Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.31

अभूर् एको रयिपते रयीणाम् आ हस्तयोर् अधिथा इन्द्र कृष्टीः । वि तोके अप्सु तनये च सूरे ऽवोचन्त चर्षणयो विवाचः ॥

abhūr eko rayipate rayīṇām ā hastayor adhithā indra kṛṣṭīḥ | vi toke apsu tanaye ca sūre 'vocanta carṣaṇayo vivācaḥ ||

Sole Lord of wealth art thou, O Lord of riches: thou in thine hands hast held the people, Indra! Men have invoked thee with contending voices for seed and waters, progeny and sunlight.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

त्वद् भियेन्द्र पार्थिवानि विश्वाच्युता चिच् च्यावयन्ते रजांसि । द्यावाक्षामा पर्वतासो वनानि विश्वं दृळ्हम् भयते अज्मन्न् आ ते ॥

tvad bhiyendra pārthivāni viśvācyutā cic cyāvayante rajāṃsi | dyāvākṣāmā parvatāso vanāni viśvaṃ dṛḷham bhayate ajmann ā te ||

Through fear of thee, O Indra, all the regions of earth, though naught may move them, shake and tremble. All that is firm is frightened at thy coming, -the earth, the heaven, the mountain, and the forest.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

त्वं कुत्सेनाभि शुष्णम् इन्द्राशुषं युध्य कुयवं गविष्टौ । दश प्रपित्वे अध सूर्यस्य मुषायश् चक्रम् अविवे रपांसि ॥

tvaṃ kutsenābhi śuṣṇam indrāśuṣaṃ yudhya kuyavaṃ gaviṣṭau | daśa prapitve adha sūryasya muṣāyaś cakram avive rapāṃsi ||

With Kutsa, Indra! thou didst conquer Susna, voracious, bane of crops, in fight for cattle. In the close fray thou rentest him: thou stolest the Sun's wheel and didst drive away misfortunes.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

त्वं शतान्य् अव शम्बरस्य पुरो जघन्थाप्रतीनि दस्योः । अशिक्षो यत्र शच्या शचीवो दिवोदासाय सुन्वते सुतक्रे भरद्वाजाय गृणते वसूनि ॥

tvaṃ śatāny ava śambarasya puro jaghanthāpratīni dasyoḥ | aśikṣo yatra śacyā śacīvo divodāsāya sunvate sutakre bharadvājāya gṛṇate vasūni ||

Thou smotest to the ground the hundred castles, impregnable, of Sambara the Dasyu, When, Strong, with might thou holpest Divodasa who poured libations out, O Soma-buyer, and madest Bharadvaja rich who praised thee.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

स सत्यसत्वन् महते रणाय रथम् आ तिष्ठ तुविनृम्ण भीमम् । याहि प्रपथिन्न् अवसोप मद्रिक् प्र च श्रुत श्रावय चर्षणिभ्यः ॥

sa satyasatvan mahate raṇāya ratham ā tiṣṭha tuvinṛmṇa bhīmam | yāhi prapathinn avasopa madrik pra ca śruta śrāvaya carṣaṇibhyaḥ ||

As such, true Hero, for great joy of battle mount thy terrific car, O Brave and Manly. Come with thine help to me, thou distant Roamer, and, glorious God, spread among men my glory.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
