For our sacrifice the two skilful makers worked, fit for the strong-oblation—agile, prosperous, fruitful. As when all warriors decline, may that vigorous devotion run towards us and work upon our senses.
Prepare fully for our sacrifice resplendent sacrificial food, and for our rite and for our strength, such nutriments as may be the cause of excellent progeny, so that we may live (surrounded) by vigorous descendants, such wealth do you confer upon us for our benefit.
For sacrifice make for us active vital power for skill and wisdom food with noble progeny. Grant to our company this power most excellent, that with a family all-heroic we may dwell.
