अस्ताव्यग्निर्नरां सुशेवो वैश्वानर ऋषिभिः सोमगोपाः । अद्वेषे द्यावापृथिवी हुवेम देवा धत्त रयिमस्मे सुवीरम्
May Agni, the gracious one among men, the universal, with the seers, the guardians of Soma, stand firm; without enmity, let us call upon Heaven and Earth—may the gods grant us wealth and strong offspring.
प्र होता जातो महान्नभोविन्नृषद्वा सीददपामुपस्थे । दधिर्यो धायि स ते वयांसि यन्ता वसूनि विधते तनूपाः
The great Hotar, born, knowing the heavens, sits among men at the lap of the waters; he who is established, who is set, to him your powers go, who apportions wealth, the protector of the body.
इमं विधन्तो अपां सधस्थे पशुं न नष्टं पदैरनु ग्मन् । गुहा चतन्तमुशिजो नमोभिरिच्छन्तो धीरा भृगवोऽविन्दन्
Seeking him in the seat of the waters, they followed his tracks like lost cattle; the wise Bhṛgus, desiring him, found him hidden, wandering, with reverence.
इमं त्रितो भूर्यविन्ददिच्छन्वैभूवसो मूर्धन्यघ्न्यायाः । स शेवृधो जात आ हर्म्येषु नाभिर्युवा भवति रोचनस्य
Trita, seeking, found this abundant one, the radiant one on the head of the cow; he, born, brings prosperity in the houses, the navel, the youth, of the shining realm.
मन्द्रं होतारमुशिजो नमोभिः प्राञ्चं यज्ञं नेतारमध्वराणाम् । विशामकृण्वन्नरतिं पावकं हव्यवाहं दधतो मानुषेषु
With reverence, the Usij-s made the delightful Hotar, the leader of the sacrifice, the guide of the rites, forward; making him the joy of the people, the pure one, the bearer of offerings among men.
प्र भूर्जयन्तं महां विपोधां मूरा अमूरं पुरां दर्माणम् । नयन्तो गर्भं वनां धियं धुर्हिरिश्मश्रुं नार्वाणं धनर्चम्
The mighty, shining one, the wise, the unconfused, the ancient upholder of the cities, they led forth; carrying the embryo of the forests, the thought, the wise, tawny-bearded, the singer of praise.
नि पस्त्यासु त्रित स्तभूयन्परिवीतो योनौ सीददन्तः । अतः संगृभ्या विशां दमूना विधर्मणायन्त्रैरीयते नॄन्
Trita, being established in the dwellings, surrounded, sat in the womb, in the seat; from there, the house-lord, by his ordinances, with his restraints, leads men.
अस्याजरासो दमामरित्रा अर्चद्धूमासो अग्नयः पावकाः । श्वितीचयः श्वात्रासो भुरण्यवो वनर्षदो वायवो न सोमाः
His unfailing, house-mastering, shining flames of Agni blaze forth; white-tusked, roaring, resounding, forest-consuming, like winds, like Somas.
प्र जिह्वया भरते वेपो अग्निः प्र वयुनानि चेतसा पृथिव्याः । तमायवः शुचयन्तं पावकं मन्द्रं होतारं दधिरे यजिष्ठम्
With his tongue, Agni stirs up trembling, with his mind he perceives the paths of earth; the Ayus have placed him, the pure, shining, delightful Hotar, most fit for worship.
द्यावा यमग्निं पृथिवी जनिष्टामापस्त्वष्टा भृगवो यं सहोभिः । ईळेन्यं प्रथमं मातरिश्वा देवास्ततक्षुर्मनवे यजत्रम्
He whom Heaven and Earth, Agni, brought forth, whom the Waters, Tvaṣṭṛ, and the Bhṛgus with their might, whom Mātariśvan, worthy of praise, first, whom the gods fashioned for Manu as the worshipful one.
यं त्वा देवा दधिरे हव्यवाहं पुरुस्पृहो मानुषासो यजत्रम् । स यामन्नग्ने स्तुवते वयो धाः प्र देवयन्यशसः सं हि पूर्वीः
You, whom the gods have made the bearer of offerings, much desired, worshipful among men; O Agni, going to the one who praises you, grant the divine, glorious, and ancient gifts.
जगृभ्मा ते दक्षिणमिन्द्र हस्तं वसूयवो वसुपते वसूनाम् । विद्मा हि त्वा गोपतिं शूर गोनामस्मभ्यं चित्रं वृषणं रयिं दाः
We have taken your right hand, O Indra, desiring wealth, O lord of treasures, lord of riches; for we know you as the guardian of cattle, O hero, grant us splendid, mighty wealth.

With horses, with chariots, with heroes, with thousands, with hundreds, O Indra, with victorious troops, heroic, winning light—grant us splendid, mighty wealth.

The seven-mouthed, inspired, wise Bṛhaspati, the prayer goes to; he, the Aṅgiras, to be approached with reverence—grant us splendid, mighty wealth.

Whatever I seek from you, grant that, O Indra—a great, unsurpassed dwelling among people; may heaven and earth together praise that—grant us, O mighty one, splendid, abundant wealth.
अहं भुवं वसुनः पूर्व्यस्पतिरहं धनानि सं जयामि शश्वतः । मां हवन्ते पितरं न जन्तवोऽहं दाशुषे वि भजामि भोजनम्
I am the ancient lord of riches; I ever win treasures for the lasting; people invoke me as a father; I distribute food to the worshiper.
अहमिन्द्रो रोधो वक्षो अथर्वणस्त्रिताय गा अजनयमहेरधि । अहं दस्युभ्यः परि नृम्णमा ददे गोत्रा शिक्षन्दधीचे मातरिश्वने
I am Indra, the barrier, the strength of Atharvan; I begot the cows for Trita, over the mighty; I have bestowed manliness upon the noble, not upon the foe; I gave the clans to Dadhichi and Mātariśvan.
मह्यं त्वष्टा वज्रमतक्षदायसं मयि देवासोऽवृजन्नपि क्रतुम् । ममानीकं सूर्यस्येव दुष्टरं मामार्यन्ति कृतेन कर्त्वेन च
For me, Tvaṣṭṛ fashioned the iron thunderbolt; the gods placed their power in me; my visage is as hard to overcome as the sun's; by my deeds and actions, they honor me.
अहमेतं गव्ययमश्व्यं पशुं पुरीषिणं सायकेना हिरण्ययम् । पुरू सहस्रा नि शिशामि दाशुषे यन्मा सोमास उक्थिनो अमन्दिषुः
I bestow this wealth of cows, horses, and gold, abundant, shining, to the worshiper; I heap up many thousands for the devotee, when the Soma-offering and hymns have gladdened me.
अहमिन्द्रो न परा जिग्य इद्धनं न मृत्यवेऽव तस्थे कदा चन । सोममिन्मा सुन्वन्तो याचता वसु न मे पूरवः सख्ये रिषाथन
I, Indra, have never been defeated or stood aside for death; those who press Soma, let them ask me for wealth; O Pūru, you do not fail in friendship with me.
अहमेताञ्छाश्वसतो द्वाद्वेन्द्रं ये वज्रं युधयेऽकृण्वत । आह्वयमानाँ अव हन्मनाहनं दृळ्हा वदन्ननमस्युर्नमस्विनः
I overcame those who, eager for horses, prepared the thunderbolt for battle; when challenged, I struck down the hostile, the strong, the arrogant, and those who would not bow.
अभीदमेकमेको अस्मि निष्षाळभी द्वा किमु त्रयः करन्ति । खले न पर्षान्प्रति हन्मि भूरि किं मा निन्दन्ति शत्रवोऽनिन्द्राः
I am one, yet I contend with many; what can two or three do? Like a thresher, I strike down many enemies; why do those who are not Indra revile me?
अहं गुङ्गुभ्यो अतिथिग्वमिष्करमिषं न वृत्रतुरं विक्षु धारयम् । यत्पर्णयघ्न उत वा करञ्जहे प्राहं महे वृत्रहत्ये अशुश्रवि
I brought food to the Guṅgus and Atithigvas; I sustained the people as a slayer of Vṛtra; whether against Parṇaya or Karañja, I was heard in the great Vṛtra-slaying.
प्र मे नमी साप्य इषे भुजे भूद्गवामेषे सख्या कृणुत द्विता । दिद्युं यदस्य समिथेषु मंहयमादिदेनं शंस्यमुक्थ्यं करम्
Let the one who bows to me obtain food and strength; let him make friendship with the cow-giver; when I am honored in assemblies, I bring forth what is praiseworthy and worthy of hymns.
प्र नेमस्मिन्ददृशे सोमो अन्तर्गोपा नेममाविरस्था कृणोति । स तिग्मशृङ्गं वृषभं युयुत्सन्द्रुहस्तस्थौ बहुले बद्धो अन्तः
Soma is not seen here, nor does he appear openly; he makes this one manifest; he, the bull with sharp horns, eager for battle, stands bound within, with his two hands.
आदित्यानां वसूनां रुद्रियाणां देवो देवानां न मिनामि धाम । ते मा भद्राय शवसे ततक्षुरपराजितमस्तृतमषाळ्हम्
I do not violate the ordinance of the Ādityas, Vasus, or Rudras—the god among gods; may they fashion me for prosperity, unconquered, undefeated, unassailable.
