You two, most eminent of all who are, Mitra and Varuṇa, are to be magnified by songs—you who, best at restraining, have held two unequal peoples together with your own arms, as with a rein.

You two who, like prize-winning steeds, of pure kinship, are (guardians of) the ṛta—when Aditi was to bear the embryo—you great ones, great as you were born, terrible, laid (it) low for the deceitful mortal.

avor itthā vāṁ chardiṣo abhiṣṭau yuvor mitrāvaruṇāv askṛdhoyu | anu yad gāvaḥ sphurān ṛjipyaṁ dhṛṣṇuṁ yad raṇe vṛṣaṇaṁ yunajan

Thus (we stand) in the supremacy of your two helps, of your shelter, O Mitra and Varuṇa—not scanty is it, yours—when the cows kick out after the onrushing one, when they yoke the bold bull in the fight.
