यत्रा नरः समयन्ते कृतध्वजो यस्मिन्न् आजा भवति किꣳ चन प्रियम् । यत्रा भयन्ते भुवना स्वर्दृशस् तत्रा न इन्द्रावरुणाधि वोचतम्

yatrā naraḥ samayante kṛtadhvajo yasminn ājā bhavati kiṁ cana priyam | yatrā bhayante bhuvanā svardṛśas tatrā na indrāvaruṇādhi vocatam

Where men clash together, their banners raised, where in the contest nothing at all is dear, where the beings that behold the sun are afraid — there speak on our behalf, Indra and Varuṇa.

इन्द्रावरुणा वधनाभिर् अप्रति भेदꣳ वन्वन्ता प्र सुदासम् आवतम् । ब्रह्माण्य् एषाꣳ शृणुतꣳ हवीमनि सत्या तृत्सूनाम् अभवत् पुरोहितिः

Indra and Varuṇa, with deadly weapons, irresistibly overcoming Bheda, you helped Sudās forward. You heard their prayers at the invocation: the priestly office of the Tṛtsus proved true.

इन्द्रावरुणाव् अभ्य् आ तपन्ति माघान्य् अर्यो वनुषाम् अरातयः । युवꣳ हि वस्व उभयस्य राजथो ऽध स्मा नो ऽवतम् पार्ये दिवि

RV 7 83.7

दश राजानः समिता अयज्यवः सुदासम् इन्द्रावरुणा न युयुधुः । सत्या नृणाम् अद्मसदाम् उपस्तुतिर् देवा एषाम् अभवन् देवहूतिषु

The ten kings, banded together and not sacrificing, did not defeat Sudās, Indra and Varuṇa. True was the praise of the men who sat at the meal; the gods were present to them at their god-invocations.

To Sudās, hemmed in on all sides in the battle of the ten kings, you gave instruction, Indra and Varuṇa — there where the white-robed Tṛtsus with braided hair, with reverence, thinking with their thought, did service.

अस्मे इन्द्रो वरुणो मित्रो अर्यमा द्युम्नꣳ यच्छन्तु महि शर्म सप्रथः । अवध्रꣳ ज्योतिर् अदितेर् ऋतावृधो देवस्य श्लोकꣳ सवितुर् मनामहे
