2.12.4

yene̱mā viśvā̱ cyava̍nā kṛ̱tāni̱ yo dāsa̱ṁ varṇa̱m adha̍ra̱ṁ guhāka̍ḥ |
śva̱ghnīva̱ yo ji̍gī̱vām̐l la̱kṣam āda̍d a̱ryaḥ pu̱ṣṭāni̱ sa ja̍nāsa̱ indra̍ḥ ||

By whom this universe was made to tremble, who chased away the humbled brood of demons, Who, like a gambler gathering his winnings seized the foe's riches, He, O men, is Indra.

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