You are indeed a warrior, commander, famed in many deeds. You increase the splendor of the sacrificer; O fruitful one, grant us abundant wealth.
For you, here, Indra, are a host; you are the giver of much booty; you are the exalter of the humble; you bestow (riches) on the worshipper who offers you oblations, for abundant is your wealth.
Thou, Hero, art a warrior, thou art giver of abundant spoil. Strengthening e'en the feeble, thou aidest the sacrificer, thou givest the offerer ample wealth.
