Which threefold gifts of the gods they offered by day and night — Varuna, Mitra, Agni — take that honeyed, powerful sacrifice; they arranged it not for the weak, the fettered, the rootless.
Tanūnapāt, whom the deities, Mitra, Varuṇa and Agni, worship daily thrice a day, render this our sacred rain-engendering sacrifice productive of water.
Agni whom daily Varuna and Mitra the Gods bring thrice a day to this our worship, Tanunapat, enrich with meath our service that dwells with holy oil, that offers honour.
