अक्र॑विहस्ता सु॒कृते॑ पर॒स्पा यं त्रासा॑थे वरु॒णेळा॑स्व॒न्तः । राजा॑ना क्ष॒त्रमहृ॑णीयमाना स॒हस्र॑स्थूणं बिभृथः स॒ह द्वौ
akravihastā sukṛte paraspā yaṃ trāsāthe varuṇeḷāsvantaḥ rājānā kṣatramahṛṇīyamānā sahasrasthūṇaṃ bibhṛthaḥ saha dvau
Unintimidating, skillful-handed, righteous toward one another—those who fear with Mitra and Varuna; kings held their mighty sceptres, thousands bore the burden, two together.
Be open-handed and benignant to the performer of pious acts, whom you protect in the midst of the plural ce of sacrifice; for you two, who are soverigns, and free from wrath, uphold together a mansion of a thousand columns.
With hands that shed no blood, guarding the pious, whom, Varuni3, ye save amid oblations. Ye Twain, together, Kings of willing spirit, uphold dominion based on thousand pillars.
