Bind together the young and graciously send forth generous sons with oblations; let not the hostile wind grant strength to the wicked, nor let the false give the prize.
Bountiful givers, when you yoke your horses you replenish the earth with viands; may this your worshipper be (swift) as the wind to propitiate and plural ase you, that, through your great (favour), he may, like a pious man, obtain food.
When, Bounteous Ones, ye drive your yoked team downward, ye send, by your own natures, understanding. Swift as the wind let the prince please and feast you: he, like a pious man, gains strength for increase.
