Thus they all made Indra a great and mighty steed; may he, valiant, take up the shining weapon and the new‑born sacred vigor, and circle around for victory.

May our new prayer bring to our protection you, Indra, who are the maker of all these (things that exist); who are mighty, fierce, undecaying, the giver of strength, having excellent descendants, the Maruts, well-armed, the bearer of the thunderbolt.

So may our new prayer bring thee to protect us, thee well-armed Hero with thy bolt of thunder, Indra, who made these worlds, the Strong, the ty, who never groweth old, the victory-giver.
