1Let the sacrifice come forward From yonder over to me, The sacrifice which the Rsis have brought forward.

2May the fault in the sacrifice settle on him who hateth us, Making his body godless, strengthless, Distorted and inert; May it rest with him who hateth us.

3O sacrifice, come to me With the brilliance of the sacrifice. I summon the Brahmans, the priests, the gods, With the brilliance of thee, the sacrifice, O offering.

4With the sacrifice I summon the cooked food [1] to thee, O offering.

5I gather for thee good deeds, offspring, and cattle.

6The Praisas, the kindling-(verses), the butter sprinklings, the shares of the ghee, The call, the reply, I prepare for thee, The fore- and after-sacrifices, the Svisakrt, the Ida. The prayers, I win, the light.

7By Agni, by Indra, by Soma, By Sarasvati, by Visnu, by the gods, By the Yajya and the Anuvakya, I summon for thee, O offering. I take for thee the sacrifice with the Vasat cry.

8The chant, the Çastra, the response, The libation, the Ida, the prayers, I win, the light. I summon for thee the sacrifices of the wives, O offering, I take thy I offering and sacrificial utterance.

9Cattle, the pressed (Soma), the sacrificial cakes, The pressings, the sacrifice, The gods with Indra, I summon for thee, O offering, Lead by Agni, with Soma, and them all.
