Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.47.2

RV 6.47.2

अयं स्वादुर् इह मदिष्ठ आस यस्येन्द्रो वृत्रहत्ये ममाद । पुरूणि यश् च्यौत्ना शम्बरस्य वि नवतिं नव च देह्यो हन् ॥

ayaṃ svādur iha madiṣṭha āsa yasyendro vṛtrahatye mamāda | purūṇi yaś cyautnā śambarasya vi navatiṃ nava ca dehyo han ||

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

This sweet juice here had mightiest power to gladden: it boldened Indra when he siaughtered Vrtra, When he defeated Sambara's many onslaughts, and battered down his nineand ninety ramparts.
