With countless warriors, well-invoked, may the gods be worshipped for us—hail! The abundant herds rise for us in mutual aid; Agni, strike the sky and send the roaring flame.
Do you with this (your) host (of attendants), be of good promise to us; do you, the especial worshipper of the gods, their unassailable protector, as well as our preserver, light up (all) with shining and affluent well-being.
May he, benevolent with this fair aspect, best sacrificer, bring the Gods to bless us. Sure guardian, our protector from the foemen, shine, Agni, with thine affluence and splendour.
