The Adhvaryu who caused a hundred thousand to fall from the earth, who brought down hosts — for what disgrace to the two guests? The warrior-assembled Soma bears the burden for us.
Priests, present the Soma to him, who, slaying hundreds and thousands (of asuras), cast them down upon the lap of the earth; who destroyed the assailants of Kutsa, Āyu and Atithigva.
Ye ministers, to him who slew a hundred thousand, and cast them down upon earth's bosom; Who quelled the valiant men of Atithigva, Kutsa, and Ayu,-bring to him the Soma.
