Whom did you give the prize to, O slayer of Vṛtra, whom, heroic one? Who has praised you for the noble gift?

In what character, O slayer of Vṛtra, do the sacrificial offerings honour you, or the brave praises in thehymn? Who is nearest (in time of battle)?

Let not the sinful tyranny of any fiercely hating foe Smite us, as billows smite a ship.
