Do not let the fire, resounding with smoke and odor, scorch you; the firebrands shine forth with gaping flame. The desired and laid‑on offering, newly made, the gods receive and take, O horses.

Let not smoke-smelling Agni cause you, (horse), to utter sound; let not the glowing cauldron, odoriferous (with its contents), be overturned; the gods accept a horse that has been selected (for sacrifice); that has been led (round the fire); that has been devoutly offered, and has been consecrated by (the exclamation), vaṣat.

Let not the fire, smoke-scented, make thee crackle, nor glowing caldron smell and break to pieces. Offered, beloved, approved, and consecrated,-such Charger do the Gods accept with favour.
