सु॒गुर॑सत्सुहिर॒ण्यः स्वश्वो॑ बृ॒हद॑स्मै॒ वय॒ इन्द्रो॑ दधाति । यस्त्वा॒यन्तं॒ वसु॑ना प्रातरित्वो मु॒क्षीज॑येव॒ पदि॑मुत्सि॒नाति॑
sugurasatsuhiraṇyaḥ svaśvo bṛhadasmai vaya indro dadhāti yastvāyantaṃ vasunā prātaritvo mukṣījayeva padimutsināti
The excellent, mighty golden one gives a great steed to that broad one; Indra grants this. He who offered that treasure in the morning, freed, gains victory and uplifts his foot.
May he (the Rājā) be rich in kine, in gold, in horses; may Indra grant abundant food to him who delays you, returning home in the early morning, by costly gifts, as (a hunter arrests the) wandering (animals) by his snares.
Rich shall he be in gold and kine and horses. Indra bestows on him great vital power, Who stays thee, as thou comest, with his treasure, like game caught in the net, O early comer.
