dyāvā cidasmai pṛthivī namete śuṣmāccidasya parvatā bhayante yaḥ somapā nicito vajrabāhuryo vajrahastaḥ sa janāsa indraḥ
He by whom heaven and earth tremble, by whom mountains fear, who subdued Soma’s waters, the bolt-armed, the vajra-handed: that Indra I know.
He, to whom heaven and earth bow down; he, at whose might the mountains are appalled; he, who is the drinker of the Soma, the firm (of frame), the adamant-armed, the wielder of the thunderbolt; he, men, is Indra.
Even the Heaven and Earth bow down before him, before his very breath the mountains tremble. Known as the Soma-drinker, armed with thunder, who wields the bolt, He, O ye men, is Indra.
