We invoke the generous Indra here, filling with song the two streams of praise; hear, mighty ones, the terrible roar that smites Vṛtra and seizes the wealth of men.
We invoke for our protection the opulent Indra, distinguished in this combat, the leader in the food-bestowing (strife), hearing (our praises), terrible in battles, the destroyer of foes, the conqueror of wealth.
Call we on Maghavan, auspicious Indra, best Hero in the fight where spoil is gathered; The Strong, who listens, who gives aid in battles, who slays the Vrtras, wins and gathers treasure.
