1.143.5

na yo varā̍ya ma̱rutā̍m iva sva̱naḥ sene̍va sṛ̱ṣṭā di̱vyā yathā̱śani̍ḥ |
a̱gnir jambhai̍s tigi̱tair a̍tti̱ bharva̍ti yo̱dho na śatrū̱n sa vanā̱ ny ṛ̍ñjate ||

He whom no force can stay, even as the Maruts' roar, like to a dart sent forth, even as the bolt from heaven, Agni with sharpened jaws chews up and cats the trees, and conquers them as when the warrior smites his foes.

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