English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Let those ungenerous foes be brought to naught; let the gifts, O hero, awake. Hither then, O Indra, make us of good report amid cows and horses, amid splendid possessions, amid thousands, O bounteous one.

Translation

لْتُمحَ أولئك الأعداءُ البخلاءُ ويصيروا إلى العدم؛ ولْتَصْحُ العطايا، أيها البطل، وتنهض. فهلمَّ إلينا يا إندرا، واجعل لنا ذِكرًا حسنًا بين الأبقارِ والخيول، وبين الممتلكاتِ البهيّة، وبين الألوف، يا واسعَ العطاء.
