He established the herd over the sky for us, the great realm, for the people, O Indra, for you. Protect us, lord of riches; defend our heroes, O Rāya, keep our progeny—grant the desire.
Bestow upon us, Indra, increasing reputation; (bestow upon us) great, augmenting, and foe subduing strength; preserve us in affluence; cherish those who are wise; and supply us with wealth from which proceed excellent progeny and food.
So give us, Indra, bliss-increasing glory give us great sway and strength that conquers people. Preserve our wealthy patrons, save our princes; vouchsafe us wealth and food with noble offspring.
