You early with sacrifices yoked abundant cows—truthful, possessing mind not misapplied; they bear you with united thought, the voice unshattered, the mind as giver.
Accepter of sacrifices, you are the first whom (worshippers) propitiate with offerings, the produce of the cow; like (the application) of the mind (in the first instrumental nce) to the results (of the senses); hymns (prompted) by thoughts wholly intent upon you, celebrate (your praise); do you, with humble minds, bestow upon us wealth.
With sacrifices and with milk they deck you first, ye Righteous Ones, as if through stirrings of the mind. To you they bring their hymns with their collected thought, while ye with earnest soul come to us gloriously.
