बळ् इत्था देव निष्कृतम् आदित्या यजतम् बृहत् । वरुण मित्रार्यमन् वर्षिष्ठं क्षत्रम् आशाथे ॥
baḷ itthā deva niṣkṛtam ādityā yajatam bṛhat | varuṇa mitrāryaman varṣiṣṭhaṃ kṣatram āśāthe ||
Ye Gods, Adityas, Varuna, Aryaman, Mitra, verily Have here obtained supremest sway, high, holy, set apart for you.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ यद् योनिं हिरण्ययं वरुण मित्र सदथः । धर्तारा चर्षणीनां यन्तं सुम्नं रिशादसा ॥
ā yad yoniṃ hiraṇyayaṃ varuṇa mitra sadathaḥ | dhartārā carṣaṇīnāṃ yantaṃ sumnaṃ riśādasā ||
When, Varuna and Mitra, ye sit in your golden dwelling-place, Ye Twain, supporters of mankind, foe slayers, give felicity.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
विश्वे हि विश्ववेदसो वरुणो मित्रो अर्यमा । व्रता पदेव सश्चिरे पान्ति मर्त्यं रिषः ॥
viśve hi viśvavedaso varuṇo mitro aryamā | vratā padeva saścire pānti martyaṃ riṣaḥ ||
All these, possessors of all wealth, Varuna, Mitra, Aryaman, Follow their ways, as if with feet, and guard from injury mortal man.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ते हि सत्या ऋतस्पृश ऋतावानो जने-जने । सुनीथासः सुदानवो ऽंहोश् चिद् उरुचक्रयः ॥
te hi satyā ṛtaspṛśa ṛtāvāno jane-jane | sunīthāsaḥ sudānavo 'ṃhoś cid urucakrayaḥ ||
For they are true, they cleave to Law, held holy among every race, Good leaders, bounteous in their gifts, deliverers even from distress.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
को नु वाम् मित्रास्तुतो वरुणो वा तनूनाम् । तत् सु वाम् एषते मतिर् अत्रिभ्य एषते मतिः ॥
ko nu vām mitrāstuto varuṇo vā tanūnām | tat su vām eṣate matir atribhya eṣate matiḥ ||
Which of your persons, Varuna or Mitra, merits not our praise? Therefore our thought is turned to you, the Atris' thought is turned to you.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
