Rigveda Samhita — Mandala 6 — Chapter 24

RV 6 24.1

वृषा मद इन्द्रे श्लोक उक्था सचा सोमेषु सुतपा ऋजीषी । अर्चत्र्यो मघवा नृभ्य उक्थैर् द्युक्षो राजा गिराम् अक्षितोतिः

vṛṣā mada indre śloka ukthā sacā someṣu sutapā ṛjīṣī | arcatryo maghavā nṛbhya ukthair dyukṣo rājā girām akṣitotiḥ

The bull-like exhilaration is in Indra, the song, the recitations; together with the somas, he is a drinker of the pressed, the drinker of the residue; the bounteous one, to be hymned by men with recitations, the heaven-dwelling king of songs, whose help does not fail.

Like the great axle in the two wheels, O hero — you extend beyond the two world-halves in your greatness. Indeed, your (branches are) like the branches of a tree, O much-invoked one: your many helps have grown out, Indra.

The powers of you who are full of power, O man of many powers, are like the converging paths of cattle. Like the tethers of calves are your (bonds), Indra — having bonds yet without bonds, O giver of good bonds.

RV 6 24.5

अन्यद् अद्य कर्वरम् अन्यद् उ श्वो ऽसच् च सन् मुहुर् आचक्रिर् इन्द्रः । मित्रो नो अत्र वरुणश् च पूषार्यो वशस्य पर्येतास्ति

anyad adya karvaram anyad u śvo 'sac ca san muhur ācakrir indraḥ | mitro no atra varuṇaś ca pūṣāryo vaśasya paryetāsti

One deed today, another tomorrow: Indra makes what is not to be, and what is, in a moment. Mitra here is ours, and Varuṇa, and Pūṣan: he is the one who circumvents the will of the stranger.

वि त्वद् आपो न पर्वतस्य पृष्ठाद् उक्थेभिर् इन्द्रानयन्त यज्ञैः । तꣳ त्वाभिः सुष्टुतिभिर् वाजयन्त आजिꣳ न जग्मुर् गिर्वाहो अश्वाः

vi tvad āpo na parvatasya pṛṣṭhād ukthebhir indrānayanta yajñaiḥ | taṁ tvābhiḥ suṣṭutibhir vājayanta ājiṁ na jagmur girvāho aśvāḥ

From thee, as waters from a mountain's back, they led (them) forth with hymns, O Indra, with sacrifices; urging thee on with these fair praises, the horses have gone, as to a race, O thou whom songs convey.

Indra, whom the autumns do not age, nor the months, nor do the days wear down — though he is already grown, let this body of his grow, being extolled with laudations and with hymns.

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

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

He bends not to the strong, nor to the firm, nor to the defiant one incited by the Dasyus, when he is praised; even lofty mountains are level plains for Indra; even in the deep there is a ford for him.

With the deep, wide (vessel), O holder of the bowl, hold out to us refreshments, O drinker of the pressed (soma), prizes. Stand up well erect with (thy) help, unfailing, at the shining-forth of the night, in the decisive hour.

Attend upon the man for help in the close encounter, or from here, Indra, guard him from harm; both at home and in the wild guard him from harm — may we rejoice a hundred winters, rich in heroes.
