RV 10 32.1

प्र सु ग्मन्ता धियसानस्य सक्षणि वरेभिर् वराꣳ अभि षु प्रसीदतः । अस्माकम् इन्द्र उभयꣳ जुजोषति यत् सोम्यस्यान्धसो बुबोधति

pra su gmantā dhiyasānasya sakṣaṇi varebhir varām̐ abhi ṣu prasīdataḥ | asmākam indra ubhayaṁ jujoṣati yat somyasyāndhaso bubodhati

Come forward well, you two, in the company of the thoughtful one; with choice things sit down well before the choice things. Indra will take pleasure in both that is ours, when he becomes aware of the somic juice.

FORTH speed the Pair to bring the meditating God, benevolent with boons sent in return for boons. May Indra graciously accept both gifts from us, when he hath knowledge of the flowing Soma juice.

RV 10 32.2

वीन्द्र यासि दिव्यानि रोचना वि पार्थिवानि रजसा पुरुष्टुत । ये त्वा वहन्ति मुहुर् अध्वराꣳ उप ते सु वन्वन्तु वग्वनाꣳ अराधसः

You range apart, Indra, over the heavenly bright spaces, and apart over the earthly ones with the airy realm, O much-praised. Those who carry you again and again to the rites — let them indeed overcome the chattering, ungenerous ones.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

Thou wanderest far, O Indra, through the spheres of light and realms of earth, the region, thou whom many praise! Let those who often bring their solemn rites conquer the noisy babblers who present no gifts.

RV 10 32.3

तद् इन् मे छन्त्सद् वपुषो वपुष्टरम् पुत्रो यज् जानम् पित्रोर् अधीयति । जाया पतिꣳ वहति वग्नुना सुमत् पुꣳस इद् भद्रो वहतुः परिष्कृतः

This would please me as more wondrous than a wonder: that a son learns the lineage of his parents. The wife draws her husband to herself with her call; the man's is the auspicious, well-adorned bridal train.
