Unknowing of skill, Mitra the renewed, guilty to the gods, held no mastery; the living brought increase with generous hosts, yielding waters to friends.

Indra, appreciates him who is skilled (in holy rites); a recent friend, quaffing (the libation), he heaps excellent (wealth) upon the devout; partaking of (the sacrificial) food, (and brought) by his robust agitators (of the earth, his steeds), he, through his benevolence, is a protector to his friends.

A recent Friend, he found the skilful priest: he drank, and showed forth treasure from the Gods. He conquered, borne by strong all-shaking mares, and was with far-spread power his friends' Protector.
