Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.34

ऋभुर् विभ्वा वाज इन्द्रो नो अच्छेमं यज्ञं रत्नधेयोप यात । इदा हि वो धिषणा देव्य् अह्नाम् अधात् पीतिं सम् मदा अग्मता वः ॥

ṛbhur vibhvā vāja indro no acchemaṃ yajñaṃ ratnadheyopa yāta | idā hi vo dhiṣaṇā devy ahnām adhāt pītiṃ sam madā agmatā vaḥ ||

To this our sacrifice come Rbhu, Vibhvan, Vaja, and Indra with the gift of riches, Because this day hath Dhisana the Goddess set drink for you: the gladdening draughts have reached you.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

विदानासो जन्मनो वाजरत्ना उत ऋतुभिर् ऋभवो मादयध्वम् । सं वो मदा अग्मत सम् पुरन्धिः सुवीराम् अस्मे रयिम् एरयध्वम् ॥

vidānāso janmano vājaratnā uta ṛtubhir ṛbhavo mādayadhvam | saṃ vo madā agmata sam purandhiḥ suvīrām asme rayim erayadhvam ||

Knowing your birth and rich in gathered treasure, Rbhus, rejoice together with the Rtus. The gladdening draughts and wisdom have approached you: send ye us riches with good store of heroes.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अयं वो यज्ञ ऋभवो ऽकारि यम् आ मनुष्वत् प्रदिवो दधिध्वे । प्र वो ऽच्छा जुजुषाणासो अस्थुर् अभूत विश्वे अग्रियोत वाजाः ॥

ayaṃ vo yajña ṛbhavo 'kāri yam ā manuṣvat pradivo dadhidhve | pra vo 'cchā jujuṣāṇāso asthur abhūta viśve agriyota vājāḥ ||

For you was made this sacrifice, O Rbhus, which ye, like men, won for yourselves aforetime. To you come all who find in you their pleasure: ye all were-even the two elder-Vajas.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अभूद् उ वो विधते रत्नधेयम् इदा नरो दाशुषे मर्त्याय । पिबत वाजा ऋभवो ददे वो महि तृतीयं सवनम् मदाय ॥

abhūd u vo vidhate ratnadheyam idā naro dāśuṣe martyāya | pibata vājā ṛbhavo dade vo mahi tṛtīyaṃ savanam madāya ||

Now for the mortal worshipper, O Heroes, for him who served you, was the gift of riches. Drink, Vajas, Rbhus! unto you is offered, to gladden you, the third and great libation.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ वाजा यातोप न ऋभुक्षा महो नरो द्रविणसो गृणानाः । आ वः पीतयो ऽभिपित्वे अह्नाम् इमा अस्तं नवस्व इव ग्मन् ॥

ā vājā yātopa na ṛbhukṣā maho naro draviṇaso gṛṇānāḥ | ā vaḥ pītayo 'bhipitve ahnām imā astaṃ navasva iva gman ||

Come to us, Heroes, Vajas and Rbhuksans, glorified for the sake of mighty treasure. These draughts approach you as the day is closing, as cows, whose calves are newly-born, their stable.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ नपातः शवसो यातनोपेमं यज्ञं नमसा हूयमानाः । सजोषसः सूरयो यस्य च स्थ मध्वः पात रत्नधा इन्द्रवन्तः ॥

ā napātaḥ śavaso yātanopemaṃ yajñaṃ namasā hūyamānāḥ | sajoṣasaḥ sūrayo yasya ca stha madhvaḥ pāta ratnadhā indravantaḥ ||

Come to this sacrifice of ours, ye Children of Strength, invoked with humble adoration. Drink of this meath, Wealth-givers, joined with Indra with whom ye are in full accord, ye Princes.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

सजोषा इन्द्र वरुणेन सोमं सजोषाः पाहि गिर्वणो मरुद्भिः । अग्रेपाभिर् ऋतुपाभिः सजोषा ग्नास्पत्नीभी रत्नधाभिः सजोषाः ॥

sajoṣā indra varuṇena somaṃ sajoṣāḥ pāhi girvaṇo marudbhiḥ | agrepābhir ṛtupābhiḥ sajoṣā gnāspatnībhī ratnadhābhiḥ sajoṣāḥ ||

Close knit with Varuna drink the Soma, Indra; close-knit, hymn-lover! with the Maruts drink it: Close-knit with drinkers first, who drink in season; close-knit with heavenly Dames who give us treasures.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

सजोषस आदित्यैर् मादयध्वं सजोषस ऋभवः पर्वतेभिः । सजोषसो दैव्येना सवित्रा सजोषसः सिन्धुभी रत्नधेभिः ॥

Rejoice in full accord with the Adityas, in concord with the Parvatas, O Rbhus; In full accord with Savitar, Divine One; in full accord with floods that pour forth riches.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

ये अश्विना ये पितरा य ऊती धेनुं ततक्षुर् ऋभवो ये अश्वा । ये अंसत्रा य ऋधग् रोदसी ये विभ्वो नरः स्वपत्यानि चक्रुः ॥

ye aśvinā ye pitarā ya ūtī dhenuṃ tatakṣur ṛbhavo ye aśvā | ye aṃsatrā ya ṛdhag rodasī ye vibhvo naraḥ svapatyāni cakruḥ ||

Rbhus, who helped their Parents and the Asvins, who formed the Milch-cow and the pair of horses, Made armour, set the heaven and earth asunder,-far- reaching Heroes, they have made good offspring.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

ये गोमन्तं वाजवन्तं सुवीरं रयिं धत्थ वसुमन्तम् पुरुक्षुम् । ते अग्रेपा ऋभवो मन्दसाना अस्मे धत्त ये च रातिं गृणन्ति ॥

ye gomantaṃ vājavantaṃ suvīraṃ rayiṃ dhattha vasumantam purukṣum | te agrepā ṛbhavo mandasānā asme dhatta ye ca rātiṃ gṛṇanti ||

Ye who have wealth in cattle and in booty, in heroes, in rich sustenance and treasure, Such, O ye Rbhus, first to drink, rejoicing, give unto us and those who laud our present.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

नापाभूत न वो ऽतीतृषामानिःशस्ता ऋभवो यज्ञे अस्मिन् । सम् इन्द्रेण मदथ सम् मरुद्भिः सं राजभी रत्नधेयाय देवाः ॥

nāpābhūta na vo 'tītṛṣāmāniḥśastā ṛbhavo yajñe asmin | sam indreṇa madatha sam marudbhiḥ saṃ rājabhī ratnadheyāya devāḥ ||

Ye were not far: we have not left you thirsting, blameless in this our sacrifice, O Rbhus. Rejoice you with the Maruts and with Indra, with the Kings, Gods! that ye may give us riches.
