Young Rudras, ageless, unwearied, like slopes of mountains they inspected the herds; like mountains they, the lofty ones, pervaded the worlds and, with firm might, made the earthly things divine by their adamantine splendour.

Youthful Rudras, and undecaying destructive of those who do not worship (the gods), of unobstructed progress, and immoveable as mountains they are desirous of granting (the wishes of the worshipper), and by their strength agitate all substances, whether of heaven or of earth.

Young Rudras, demon-slayers, never growing old, they have waxed, even as mountains, irresistible. They make all beings tremble with their mighty strength, even the very strongest, both of earth and heaven.
