Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 8.12.22

RV 8.12.22

इन्द्रं वृत्राय हन्तवे देवासो दधिरे पुरः । इन्द्रं वाणीर् अनूषता सम् ओजसे ॥

indraṃ vṛtrāya hantave devāso dadhire puraḥ | indraṃ vāṇīr anūṣatā sam ojase ||

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

For slaying Vrtra have the Gods set Indra in the foremost place. Indra the choral bands have sung, for vigorous strength.
