Brihaspati, victor, endowed with wealth, leader of mighty hosts and cows, this god dwells among the people. Waters and dwelling-places are his followers; Brihaspati destroys the foe with beams (rays).

This Bṛhaspati has conquered the treasures (of the enemy), and the spacious pastures with the cattle; purposing to appropriate he waters (of the firmament), he destroys with sacred prayers the adversary of heaven.

Brhaspati in war hath won rich treasures, hath won, this God, the great stalls filled with cattle. Striving to win waters and light, resistless, Brhaspati with lightning smites the foeman.
