English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Whoso hateth us, and whom we in turn do hate—do thou, by vital breath, make him to swell. But may we wax full hitherward with kine, with steeds, with offspring, with cattle, with houses, with treasure.

Translation

Кто ненавидит нас, и кого мы, в ответ, ненавидим — того ты, жизненным дыханием (праной), раздуй, заставь распухнуть. А мы да наполнимся здесь коровами и конями, потомством, скотом, домами и богатством.
