Rig Veda 10.48.6
Sanskrit (Devanagari)
अहमेताञ्छाश्वसतो दवा-दवेन्द्रं ये वज्रं युधयेऽकर्ण्वत | आह्वयमानानव हन्मनाहनं दर्ळा वदन्ननमस्युर्नमस्विनः
IAST Romanisation
ahametāñchāśvasato dvā-dvendraṃ ye vajraṃ yudhaye'kṛṇvata | āhvayamānānava hanmanāhanaṃ dṛḷā vadannanamasyurnamasvinaḥ
English Translation (Griffith)
These, breathing loud in fury, two and two, who caused Indra to bring his bolt of thunder to the fray, The challengers, I struck with deadly weapon down: firm stand what words the God speaks to his worshippers. This One by stronger might I conquered singly; yea, also two: shall three prevail against me? Like many sheaves upon the floor I thrash them. How can my foes, the Indraless, revile me?
