RV 7 28.1

ब्रह्मा ण इन्द्रोप याहि विद्वान् अर्वाञ्चस् ते हरयः सन्तु युक्ताः । विश्वे चिद् धि त्वा विहवन्त मर्ता अस्माकम् इच् छृणुहि विश्वमिन्व

brahmā ṇa indropa yāhi vidvān arvāñcas te harayaḥ santu yuktāḥ | viśve cid dhi tvā vihavanta martā asmākam ic chṛṇuhi viśvaminva

Come, Indra, knowing, to our sacred formulations; let your bays be yoked and turned this way. For all mortals call on you in rivalry; hear ours alone, O mover of all.

RV 7 28.2

हवꣳ त इन्द्र महिमा व्य् आनड् ब्रह्म यत् पासि शवसिन्न् ऋषीणाम् । आ यद् वज्रꣳ दधिषे हस्त उग्र घोरः सन् क्रत्वा जनिष्ठा अषाऴ्हः

havaṁ ta indra mahimā vy ānaḍ brahma yat pāsi śavasinn ṛṣīṇām | ā yad vajraṁ dadhiṣe hasta ugra ghoraḥ san kratvā janiṣṭhā aṣāḻhaḥ

Your greatness has reached the call, Indra — the formulation of the ṛṣis which you guard, O possessor of power. When you, fierce one, took the vajra in your hand, being terrible you were born unconquerable by your resolve.

RV 7 28.3

तव प्रणीतीन्द्र जोहुवानान् सꣳ यन् नॄन् न रोदसी निनेथ । महे क्षत्राय शवसे हि जज्ञे ऽतूतुजिꣳ चित् तूतुजिर् अशिश्नत्

tava praṇītīndra johuvānān saṁ yan nṝn na rodasī ninetha | mahe kṣatrāya śavase hi jajñe 'tūtujiṁ cit tūtujir aśiśnat

By your leading, Indra, when you led together the loudly calling men, as (you led) the two worlds — for you were born for great dominion and power; being an impeller, you spurred on even the unspurred.

RV 7 28.4

एभिर् न इन्द्राहभिर् दशस्य दुर्मित्रासो हि क्षितयः पवन्ते । प्रति यच् चष्टे अनृतम् अनेना अव द्विता वरुणो मायी नः सात्

ebhir na indrāhabhir daśasya durmitrāso hi kṣitayaḥ pavante | prati yac caṣṭe anṛtam anenā ava dvitā varuṇo māyī naḥ sāt

Favour us with these days, Indra, for the settlements, being ill-disposed, are blowing (against us). Since the guiltless one looks upon untruth, may Varuṇa, the possessor of magic, as of old release us from it.

RV 7 28.5

वोचेमेद् इन्द्रम् मघवानम् एनम् महो रायो राधसो यद् ददन् नः । यो अर्चतो ब्रह्मकृतिम् अविष्ठो यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः

vocemed indram maghavānam enam maho rāyo rādhaso yad dadan naḥ | yo arcato brahmakṛtim aviṣṭho yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ

Let us call upon this Indra, the bounteous, that he may give us great wealth of largesse — he who is most helpful to the singer's prayer-making. Do you protect us always with your blessings.
