2Subduing those who rival us, subduing all malignities, Withstand the man who menaces, withstand the man who angers us.

3Soma and Savitar the God have made thee a victorious King All elements have aided thee, to make thee general conqueror.

4Oblation, that which Indra. gave and thus grew glorious and most high,− This have I offered, Gods! and hence now, verily, am rivalless.

5Slayer of rivals, rivalless, victorious, with royal sway, Over these beings may I rule, may I be Sovran of the folk.
