Therefore we, yoked to these ends, with our own territories stretched, exulting in armies. With great ones we harness them to you—Indra, grant our oblation and be for us a protector.

(The Maruts): Therefore we also, decorating our person ns, are ready, with our docile and night-standing steeds, (to attend) you, with all our splendour, to those rites; verily, Indra, you appropriate our (sacrificial) food.

Therefore together with our strong companions, having adorned our bodies, now we harness, Our spotted deer with might, for thou, O Indra, hast learnt and understood our Godlike nature.
