20.114.1
abhrātr̥vyó'anā́ tvám ánāpir indra janúṣā sanā́d asi |
yudhéd āpitvám ichase ||1||
O Indra, from all ancient time rivalless ever and companionless art thou:
In war thou seekest comradeship.
20.114.2
nákī revántaṃ sakhyā́ya vindase pī́yanti te surāśvàḥ |
yadā́ kr̥ṇóṣi nadanúṃ sám ūhasy ā́d ít pitéva hūyase ||2||
Thou findest not the wealthy man to be thy friend: those scorn thee who are flown with wine.
What time thou thunderest and gatherest, then thou, even as a father, art invoked.
