8.049.01 I would praise to you the bounteous Indra as is fit, the wealth-abounding Maghavan, who loves to help with thousandfold treasure those who praise him.
8.049.02 He rushes on boldly like a weapon with a hundred edges, he smites the enemies of his worshipper; the gifts of him who feeds many, swell like the streams of a mountain.
8.049.03 The expressed exhilarate Soma, O Indra, lover of hymns, fills you for bounty, O hero, O thunderer, as the waters flow to their accustomed lake.
8.049.04 Drink the incomparable, helpful, swelling Soma, the sweet of the Soma, that in your exultation you may pour out treasure for us, just as the mill-stone pours out meal. [dhr.s.ad = dr.s.ad].
8.049.05 Come quickly to our praise--urged on by the Soma-pressers like a horse-- which the kine make sweet, for you, O Indra, of independent mighty; there are gifts (for you) among the Kan.va's. [stomam = somam].
8.049.06 We have approached you with homage like a mighty hero, the pre-eminent one, of imperishable wealth; O Indra, thunderer, our prayers flow forth as an abundant fountain pours  out its streams.
8.049.07 Whether you are now present at a sacrifice, or whether you are abroad on the earth, come from thence with your swift steeds to our sacrifice, O you of lofty counsel, come, strong one, with the strong (steeds).
8.049.08 Agile and swift are your steeds, overpowering like the winds; with which you encircle the race of Manus, with which he whole heaven becomes visible. [Or, with which you encircle all...]
8.049.09 O Indra, we long for such a bounty of yours, rich in kine; (help us), Maghavan, as you did help Medhya_tithi with wealth, as you did help Ni_pa_tithi.
8.049.10 As you, Mahavan, did give abundant kine and gold to Kan.va and Trasadasyu, to Paktha and Das'avraja; as you did give them to Gos'arya and R.jis'van.

8.050.01 I would praise the far-famed, the bounteous S'akra, for the sake of his protection, who gives desirable wealth by thousands to the presser of the Soma and the offerer of hymns.
8.050.02 Invincible are his hundred-edged weapons, he mighty arrows of Indra; he pours forth blessings on his liberal worshippers like a mountain rich in springs, when the effused Soma has exhilarated him.
8.050.03 When the effused Soma-drops have exhilarated the beloved one, my oblation is offered abundantly like the waters, O gracious Indra-- it is like the kine to the worshipper.
8.050.04 The prayers which consecrate the Soma flow forth to the incomparable one who calls you for his favour, the Soma-drops which invoke you, O gracious one, have set you in the midst of the hymns.
8.050.05 He rushes hurrying like a horse to the Soma offered in our festival, which the hymns make sweet to you, O you that love sweet viands, you approve the summons to the satisfying Soma. [Paura may be a proper name; you approve the summons to (the house of) Paura].
8.050.06 Praise the mighty hero, wide-grasping, spoil-harrying, who has control over vast treasure; you, O thunderer ever pour forth wealth to the worshipper like an abundan fountain.
8.050.07 Whether you are in the far distance or in the earth or in heaven, O Indra, god of lofty counsel, yoke your steeds, come here, lofty one, with the lofty.
8.050.08 Your harmless steeds which draw your chariot, which surpass the strength of the wind, with which you silence the enemy of man and with which you go round the sky. [Or, of Manus, dasyum manus.ah].
8.050.09 May we once more know you as such, O gracious hero, as when you did aid Etas'a in the decisive battle, or Vas'a against Das'avraja.
8.050.10 As you were willing to give, O Maghavan, to Kan.va in the sacrificial feast, or to Di_rghani_tha the friend of the house, as you were willing to give, O slinger, to Gos'arya, so give to me a herd of kine shining like gold.

8.051.01 As you did drink, O Indra, the effused Soma beside Manu, the descendant of Sam.varan.a, by Ni_pa_tithi and Medhya_tithi, by Pus.t.igu and S'rus.t.igu, O Maghavan (so do you drink it here).
8.051.02 The descendant of Pr.s.advana entertained the aged Praskan.va who lay rejected (by his kindred); aided by you the seer Dasyave-vr.ka desired to obtain thousands of cows.
8.051.03 Sing that Indra with the new hymn who has no lack of praises, who is wise and the inspirer of seers, who is as it were eager to enjoy.
8.051.04 He to whom they sang the seven-headed hymn with its three parts in the highest region, he has made all these worlds tremble, and has thus brought forth his power. [i.e. sun by seven divine singers in heaven].
8.051.05 We invoke that Indra who gives us wealth; for we know his new favour; may we obtain a stall rich in cows.
8.051.06 He whom you help, O gracious one, to give, obtains abundance of wealth; bringing the Soma we invoke you, Indra, Maghavan, you that love hymns.
8.051.07 Never are you niggardly, Indra, and give not to the worshipper; but your godlike gifts, O Maghavan, are poured forth more and more.
8.051.08 He who overpowered Krivi by his might and silences Sus.n.a with his weapons, when he spread abroad yonder sky and propped it up, then first the dweller on earth was born.
8.051.09 That wealth, which every A_rya here covets and every miserly Da_sa, is sent direct to yo, the pious Rus'ama Paviru.
8.051.10 The zealous seers have sung a hymn, sweet with Soma and dropping ghi_; wealth and manly strength hav espread themselves among us, and so too the expressed Soma drops.

8.052.01 As you, S'akra, did drink the effused Soma from Manu Vivasvat, as you did accept the hymn from Trita, so do you gladden yourself with A_yu.
8.052.02 You did enjoy, Indra, the effused drink with Pr.s.adhra, Medhya and Ma_taris'van, just as you did drink the Soma with Das'as'ipra, Das'on.ya, Syumaras'mi, and R.junas.
8.052.03 (It is Indra) who has appropriated the hymns for himself, who has bravely drunk the Soma, for whom Vis.n.u strode the three steps according to the ordinances of Mitra.
8.052.04 O S'atakratu, you who are bountiful to him whose praises and oblations you delight in, we, desiring wealth, invoke you, as the milkers call a cow which bears abundant milk.
8.052.05 He who gives to us is our father, the mighty, the strong, he who acts as the sovereign, may he, the strong rich Maghavan, give us kine and horses, even without our asking for it.
8.052.06 He to whom you give a present that he may obtain abundance of wealth; we, desiring wealth, invoke with our praises Indra S'atakratu, the lord of wealth.
8.052.07 Never are you heedless, you guard both races, (gods and men); O fourth A_ditya, to you belongs the Indra invocation, the ambrosia has risen to heaven. [i.e. with Varun.a, Mitra and Aryaman].
8.052.08 (As you hear) the worshipper who you favour, O Indra, Maghavan, liberal one, you that love hymns, so, gracious one, hear our hymns and our invocation of praise, like Kan.va's.
8.052.09 The old hymn has been sun, you have uttered the prayer to Indra; they have shouted many br.hati_ verses of the rite, many hymns of the worshipper have they poured forth.
8.052.10 Indra has heaped together vast stores of wealth, the two worlds and the sun; the bright pure Soma-drink mixed with milk, has exhilarated Indra.

8.053.01 We come to you, O Maghavan Indra, the highest of Maghavans, the strong of bulls, the mightiest breakere of forts, the provider of kine, the lord of wealth.
8.053.02 You who, waxing in might day by day, did destroy A_yu, Kutsa, and Atithigva, we invoke you, S'atakratu, with your bay horses, rousing you by our offerings.
8.053.03 Let the stones our forth the Soma for us all, the Soma-drops which have been pressed by men afar or near.
8.053.04 Smite all our enemies and drive them away, may we all obtain their wealth; even amont the S'i_s.t.as are you exhilarating Soma-stalks, where you fill yourself with the Soma.
8.053.05 Indra, come very near with your firmly-wise protections; come, O most healthful, with your mos healthful aid, come, good kinsma, with your good kinsmen.
8.053.06 Make rich in children that chief of all me, who is victorious in battle and a strong protector; proper thoroughly with your powers your singers who cintinually purify their minds.
8.053.07 May we be in battle as one who is the sure to gain your protection; we worship you with invocations and prayers wen we obtain our desire.
8.053.08 With your help, O lord of bay steeds, I always go into prayer and into battle, seeking spoil; it is you whom I insist upon, when I go, longing for horses and kine, at the head of plunders. [mati_na_m = mathi_na_m, in the beginning of my prayers].

8.054.01 The singers with their hymns, O Indra, this might of yours; singing loudly, they have brought you sacred viands dropping with Soma; the offerers have drawn near with their prayers. [Or, the Pauras].
8.054.02 They have drawn near Indra with holy rites for his protection, they in whose libations you rejoice; as you did rejoice in Samvara and Kr.s'a, so now, Indra, do you rejoice in us.
8.054.03 You gods, come all with one accord to us; let the Vasus and Rudras come for our protection, let the Maruts hear our call.
8.054.04 May Pu_s.an, Vis.n.u, Sarsvati_, and the seven rivers, favour my call; may the waters, the wind, the mountains, the trees, the earth, hear my call.
8.054.05 With yours own special gift, O Indra, best of Maghavans, be you our boon-companion for good, our liberal benefactor, O slayer of Vr.tra.
8.054.06 O lord of battle, lord of men, mighty in action, do you guide us in the conflict; far-famed are those who obtain their desires by sacrificial feasts, by invocations, and by entertaining the gods.
8.054.07 Our prayers abide in the true one, in Indra is the life of men; draw near to us, Maghavan, for our protection; milk for the streaming drink.
8.054.08 O Indra, we would worship you with hymns; O S'atakratu, you are ours; pour down upon Pras'kan.va great, solid, inexhaustible, exuberant abundance.

8.055.01 Great indeed is Indra's might; I have beheld it; your gift approaches, O Dasyaave vr.ka [O foe to the Dasyu].
8.055.02 A hundred white oxen shine like stars in the heaven, by their size they have almost held up the heavens.
8.055.03 A hundred bamboos, a hundred dogs, a hundred dressed hides, a hundred bunches of balbaja grass, and four hundred red mares are mine.
8.055.04 May youu have the gods propitious to you, O descendants of Kan.va, living through youth on youth; step out vigorously like steed.
8.055.05 Let them praise the seven-yoked team, great is the strength of that which is not yet full-grown; the dark-brown mares have rushed along the paths so that no eye can follow them.

8.056.01 Your inexhaustible gift has appeared, O Dasyave vr.ka, its fullness is in extent like the sky.
8.056.02 Dasyave-vr.ka, the son of Putakrata, has given to me ten thousand from his own store.
8.056.03 A hundred asses a hundred woolly sheep, a hundred slaves, beside garlands.
8.056.04 There too has been brought for Putakrata a well-adorned mare, which is not one of the common horses of the herd.
8.056.05 The shining Agni has appeared, the bearer of the oblation, with his chariot; Agni has gleamed forth brilliantly with his bright flame as Sura, he has gleamed forth in heaven as Su_rya.

8.057.01 You have come quickly, you two gods, with your car, endowed with ancient might, O sacred As'vins, truthful ones, with your powers, drink this third libation.
8.057.02 The three-and-thirty truthful gods saw you before the truthful one; O As'vins, gleaming with fire, drink the Soma, enjoying our offering, our libation. [i.e. before the Sun; the dawns are compared to truthful active women; cf. RV. 1.79.1].
8.057.03 That work of yours, O As'vins, is worthy of wonder, the bull of the heavens, the firmament and the earth; and your thousand blessings in battle, for all these come here to drink. [i.e. the Sun, which they may be said to reveal, as they come with the earliest dawn].
8.057.04 O sacred ones, this your portion has been placed for you, O truthful ones, come to these your praises; drink among us the sweet Soma, succour your worshipper with your powers.

8.058.01 He whom the wise priests bring, when they arrange the offering in many ways, who was employed as a learned bra_hman.a, what is the offerer's knowledge regarding him?
8.058.02 Agni is one, though kindled in various ways; one is the Sun, pre-eminent over all; one Dawn illumines this all; one is that which has become this all.
8.058.03 The brilliant chariot, diffusing splendour, rolling lightly on its three wheels, offering an easy seat, and full of many gifts, at whose yoking the Dawn was born, rich in marvellous treasures, I invoke that your chariot (O As'vins), come you here to drink.

8.059.01 These your offered portions stream forth, O Indra and Varun.a, to your honour in the oblations; at every sacrifice you hasten to the oblations, when you help the offerer who presses out the Soma.
8.059.02 The plants and the waters were efficacious, they have attained their power, O indra and Varun.a, you who have gone beyond the path of the firmament, no godless man is worth being called your enemy.
8.059.03 True, O Indra and Varun.a, is that saying of Kr.sa's, 'the seven sacred voices distil a stream of honey', for their sake help the worshipper, O you lords of splendour, who reverence you devoutly in his thoughts. [RV. 9.103.3, 'the Soma streams through the sheep's wool round the honey-dropping vessel, the seven voices of the sacred bards shout to it'].
8.059.04 The seven sister-streams of the Soma, in the hot the offering, pour forth ghi_-dripping streams of yours, O Indra Varun.a, provide for and help the offerer.
8.059.05 To our great happiness we hae declared to these two brilliant ones the true might of Indra; O indra and Varun.a, lords of splendour, help us, the offerers of ghi_, with the company of thrice seven. [cf. use of the same phrase in: RV. 1.133.6: O irresistible one, you destroy not men with the warriors, with the thrice seven warriors].
8.059.06 O Indra and Varun.a, I have seen what you formerly gave to the seers, wisdom, power of song, and fame, and the places which the wise have prepared for themselves, as they spread the web of the sacrifice with holy austerities.
8.059.07 O Indra and Varun.a, give to the offerers cheerfulness without levity, and abundance of wealth; give to us offspring, food, prosperity; prolong our lives to length of days.
