Transliteration

té ciddhí pūrvī́r abhí sánti śāsā́ viśvā́ṃ aryá uparatā́ti vánvan | índro víbhvāṃ ṛbhukṣā́ vājò aryáḥ śátror mithatyā́ kṛṇaván ví nṛ́mṇam ||

Translation

แท้จริงแล้ว บรรดาบัญญัติโบราณเหล่านั้นยังดำรงอยู่ กดดันและบัญชาต่อสรรพสิ่ง; ผู้สูงศักดิ์ย่อมชนะถึงแดนอันสูงยิ่ง. อินทระ (Indra) ผู้แผ่การงานกว้างไกล ร̥bhukṣaṇa และ วาชะ (Vāja) ผู้สูงศักดิ์—ทำความเท็จของศัตรูให้สูญสิ้น—ยังพลังวีรบุรุษให้ปรากฏอย่างเต็มเปี่ยม.
