Indra, with loud acclaim, entered the well‑struck place and gave manly treasures to men; the skillful ones appointed these protective rites—he made these garments of fame and the order of months.
Indra entered the confiding hostile (hosts) like a man distributing many (gifts) to (his) leaders; he has animated these dawns for the worshipper, and heightened their bright radiance (by his own).
Forward to fiercely falling blows pressed Indra, herolike doing many hero exploits. These holy songs he taught the bard who gaised him, and widely spread these Dawns' resplendent colour.
