Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·7·7.93
शुचिं नु स्तोमं नवजातम् अद्येन्द्राग्नी वृत्रहणा जुषेथाम् । उभा हि वां सुहवा जोहवीमि ता वाजं सद्य उशते धेष्ठा ॥
śuciṃ nu stomaṃ navajātam adyendrāgnī vṛtrahaṇā juṣethām | ubhā hi vāṃ suhavā johavīmi tā vājaṃ sadya uśate dheṣṭhā ||
Slayers of enemies, Indra and Agni, accept this day our new-born pure laudation. Again, again I call you prompt to listen, best to give quickly strength to him who craves it.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ता सानसी शवसाना हि भूतं साकंवृधा शवसा शूशुवांसा । क्षयन्तौ रायो यवसस्य भूरेः पृङ्क्तं वाजस्य स्थविरस्य घृष्वेः ॥
tā sānasī śavasānā hi bhūtaṃ sākaṃvṛdhā śavasā śūśuvāṃsā | kṣayantau rāyo yavasasya bhūreḥ pṛṅktaṃ vājasya sthavirasya ghṛṣveḥ ||
For ye were strong to gain, exceeding mighty, growing together, waxing in your vigour. Lords of the pasture filled with ample riches, bestow upon us strength both fresh and lasting.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
उपो ह यद् विदथं वाजिनो गुर् धीभिर् विप्राः प्रमतिम् इच्छमानाः । अर्वन्तो न काष्ठां नक्षमाणा इन्द्राग्नी जोहुवतो नरस् ते ॥
upo ha yad vidathaṃ vājino gur dhībhir viprāḥ pramatim icchamānāḥ | arvanto na kāṣṭhāṃ nakṣamāṇā indrāgnī johuvato naras te ||
Yea when the strong have entered our assembly, and singers seeking with their hymns your favour, They are like steeds who come into the race-course, those men who call aloud on Indra-Agni.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
गीर्भिर् विप्रः प्रमतिम् इच्छमान ईट्टे रयिं यशसम् पूर्वभाजम् । इन्द्राग्नी वृत्रहणा सुवज्रा प्र नो नव्येभिस् तिरतं देष्णैः ॥
gīrbhir vipraḥ pramatim icchamāna īṭṭe rayiṃ yaśasam pūrvabhājam | indrāgnī vṛtrahaṇā suvajrā pra no navyebhis tirataṃ deṣṇaiḥ ||
The singer, seeking with his hymns your favour, begs splendid riches of their first possessor. Further us with new bounties, Indra-Agni, armed with strong thunder, slayers of the foeman.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
सं यन् मही मिथती स्पर्धमाने तनूरुचा शूरसाता यतैते । अदेवयुं विदथे देवयुभिः सत्रा हतं सोमसुता जनेन ॥
saṃ yan mahī mithatī spardhamāne tanūrucā śūrasātā yataite | adevayuṃ vidathe devayubhiḥ satrā hataṃ somasutā janena ||
When two great hosts, arrayed against each other, meet clothed with brightness, in the fierce encounter Stand ye beside the godly, smite the godless; and still assist the men who press the Soma.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
इमाम् उ षु सोमसुतिम् उप न एन्द्राग्नी सौमनसाय यातम् । नू चिद् धि परिमम्नाथे अस्मान् आ वां शश्वद्भिर् ववृतीय वाजैः ॥
imām u ṣu somasutim upa na endrāgnī saumanasāya yātam | nū cid dhi parimamnāthe asmān ā vāṃ śaśvadbhir vavṛtīya vājaiḥ ||
To this our Soma-pressing, Indra-Agni, come ye prepared to show your loving-kindness, For not at any time have ye despised us. So may I draw you with all strengthenings hither.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
सो अग्न एना नमसा समिद्धो ऽच्छा मित्रं वरुणम् इन्द्रं वोचेः । यत् सीम् आगश् चकृमा तत् सु मृळ तद् अर्यमादितिः शिश्रथन्तु ॥
so agna enā namasā samiddho 'cchā mitraṃ varuṇam indraṃ voceḥ | yat sīm āgaś cakṛmā tat su mṛḷa tad aryamāditiḥ śiśrathantu ||
So Agni, kindled mid this adoration, invite thou Mitra, Varuna, and Indra. Forgive whatever sin we have committed may Aryaman and Aditi remove it.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
एता अग्न आशुषाणास इष्टीर् युवोः सचाभ्य् अश्याम वाजान् । मेन्द्रो नो विष्णुर् मरुतः परि ख्यन् यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
etā agna āśuṣāṇāsa iṣṭīr yuvoḥ sacābhy aśyāma vājān | mendro no viṣṇur marutaḥ pari khyan yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||
While we accelerate these our sacrifices, may we win strength from both of you, O Agni: Ne'er may the Maruts, Indra, Visnu slight us. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
