ए॒वा वस्व॒ इन्द्रः॑ स॒त्यः स॒म्राड्ढन्ता॑ वृ॒त्रं वरि॑वः पू॒रवे॑ कः । पुरु॑ष्टुत॒ क्रत्वा॑ नः शग्धि रा॒यो भ॑क्षी॒य तेऽव॑सो॒ दैव्य॑स्य
evā vasva indraḥ satyaḥ samrāḍḍhantā vṛtraṃ varivaḥ pūrave kaḥ puruṣṭuta kratvā naḥ śagdhi rāyo bhakṣīya te'vaso daivyasya
Thus Indra, the mighty, the truthful, smote Vritra, the obstructer, and filled with treasures of ancient days. Having celebrated with praise and carved a hymn for us, may you eat the spoil, divine one.
Thus (glorified), Indra, who is faithful (to his word), the lord of wealth, the slayer of Vṛtra, bestows rihes on man; so you, the praised of many, give us riches for our pious acts, that I may eat of your divine food.
So Indra is the truthful Lord of treasure. Freedom he gave to man by slaying Vrtra. Much-lauded! help us with thy power to riches: may I be sharer of thy Godlike favour.
