Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·7·7.48
ऋभुक्षणो वाजा मादयध्वम् अस्मे नरो मघवानः सुतस्य । आ वो ऽर्वाचः क्रतवो न यातां विभ्वो रथं नर्यं वर्तयन्तु ॥
ṛbhukṣaṇo vājā mādayadhvam asme naro maghavānaḥ sutasya | ā vo 'rvācaḥ kratavo na yātāṃ vibhvo rathaṃ naryaṃ vartayantu ||
Ye liberal Heroes, Vajas and Rbhuksans, come and delight you with our flowing Soma. May your strength, Vibhus, as ye come to meet us, turn hitherward your car that brings men profit.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ऋभुर् ऋभुभिर् अभि वः स्याम विभ्वो विभुभिः शवसा शवांसि । वाजो अस्मां अवतु वाजसाताव् इन्द्रेण युजा तरुषेम वृत्रम् ॥
ṛbhur ṛbhubhir abhi vaḥ syāma vibhvo vibhubhiḥ śavasā śavāṃsi | vājo asmāṃ avatu vājasātāv indreṇa yujā taruṣema vṛtram ||
May we as Rbhu with your Rbhus conquer strength with our strength, as Vibhus with the Vibhus. May Vaja aid us in the fight for booty, and helped by Indra may we quell the foeman.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ते चिद् धि पूर्वीर् अभि सन्ति शासा विश्वां अर्य उपरताति वन्वन् । इन्द्रो विभ्वां ऋभुक्षा वाजो अर्यः शत्रोर् मिथत्या कृणवन् वि नृम्णम् ॥
te cid dhi pūrvīr abhi santi śāsā viśvāṃ arya uparatāti vanvan | indro vibhvāṃ ṛbhukṣā vājo aryaḥ śatror mithatyā kṛṇavan vi nṛmṇam ||
For they rule many tribes with high dominion, and conquer all their foes in close encounter. May Indra, Vibhvan, Vaja, and Rbhuksan destroy by turns the wicked foeman's valour.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
नू देवासो वरिवः कर्तना नो भूत नो विश्वे ऽवसे सजोषाः । सम् अस्मे इषं वसवो ददीरन् यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
nū devāso varivaḥ kartanā no bhūta no viśve 'vase sajoṣāḥ | sam asme iṣaṃ vasavo dadīran yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||
Now, Deities, give us ample room and freedom: be all of you, one-minded, our protection. So let the Vasus grant us strength and vigour. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
