1.130.8

indra̍ḥ sa̱matsu̱ yaja̍māna̱m ārya̱m prāva̱d viśve̍ṣu śa̱tamū̍tir ā̱jiṣu̱ sva̍rmīḻheṣv ā̱jiṣu̍ |
mana̍ve̱ śāsa̍d avra̱tān tvaca̍ṁ kṛ̱ṣṇām a̍randhayat |
dakṣa̱n na viśva̍ṁ tatṛṣā̱ṇam o̍ṣati̱ ny a̍rśasā̱nam o̍ṣati ||

Indra in battles help his Aryan worshipper, he who hath hundred helps at hand in every fray, in frays that win the light of heaven. Plaguing the lawless he gave up to Manu's seed the dusky skin; Blazing, 'twere, he burns each covetous man away, he burns, the tyrannous away.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
