ko nu vām mitrāvaruṇāv ṛtāyan divo vā mahaḥ pārthivasya vā de | ṛtasya vā sadasi trāsīthāṁ no yajñāyate vā paśuṣo na vājān

Who now of you two, Mitra and Varuṇa, striving after ṛta, ... of great heaven or of the earthly (realm)? Protect us in the seat of ṛta, or (grant) prizes, like herds of cattle, to the one who sacrifices.

ते नो मित्रो वरुणो अर्यमायुर् इन्द्र ऋभुक्षा मरुतो जुषन्त । नमोभिर् वा ये दधते सुवृक्तिꣳ स्तोमꣳ रुद्राय मीऴ्हुषे सजोषाः

te no mitro varuṇo aryamāyur indra ṛbhukṣā maruto juṣanta | namobhir vā ye dadhate suvṛktiṁ stomaṁ rudrāya mīḻhuṣe sajoṣāḥ

May they take pleasure in (this) of ours — Mitra, Varuṇa, Aryaman, Āyu, Indra, Ṛbhukṣan, the Maruts — or those who with acts of homage, of one accord, set up a well-turned hymn, a praise-song for Rudra the bestower.

Your (chariot?) is to be summoned hither, O Aśvins, at the flight of the wind, at the thriving of the chariot-team; or else bring forth a thought to the Asura of heaven, as one brings soma-juices to him who is worthy of sacrifice.

Send forth for yourselves Vāyu, the yoker of the chariot, forth with chants the god, the inspired one, the one who gives praise. As suppliants, as tenders of ṛta, (we ask that) the good wives, rich in insight, set (these things) here for us in our thought.

I have praised the germ of the bull of the earth; Trita (praised) the child of the waters with a good hymn. Agni is sung, like a runner (spurred) by songs of strength; flame-haired, he wears down the woods.
