2.31.1
अ॒स्माकं॑ मित्रावरुणावतं॒ रथ॑मादि॒त्यै रु॒द्रैर्वसु॑भिः सचा॒भुवा॑ ।
प्र यद्वयो॒ न पप्त॒न्वस्म॑न॒स्परि॑ श्रव॒स्यवो॒ हृषी॑वन्तो वन॒र्षदः॑ ॥
O Mitra and Varuna, protect our chariot, you two who dwell together with the Adityas, Rudras and Vasus. As birds fly forth from the nest, the eager, fame-seeking Maruts, winners of the forest, fly all around.
2.31.2
अध॑ स्मा न॒ उद॑वता सजोषसो॒ रथं॑ देवासो अ॒भि वि॒क्षु वा॑ज॒युम् ।
यदा॒शवः॒ पद्या॑भि॒स्तित्र॑तो॒ रजः॑ पृथि॒व्याः सानौ॒ जङ्घ॑नन्त पा॒णिभिः॑ ॥
Then, O united gods, lift us up and protect us, toward the chariot seeking strength among the peoples, when the swift ones pierce the atmosphere with their feet and strike with their hands on the ridge of the earth.
2.31.3
उ॒त स्य न॒ इन्द्रो॑ वि॒श्वच॑र्षणिर्दि॒वः शर्धे॑न॒ मारु॑तेन सु॒क्रतुः॑ ।
अनु॒ नु स्था॑त्यवृ॒काभि॑रू॒तिभिः॒ रथं॑ म॒हे स॒नये॒ वाज॑सातये ॥
May that Indra, all-seeing, wise in deed of heaven, be with us with the might of the Maruts. Indeed, may he stand by the chariot with unharmed protections, for great wealth and the winning of food.
2.31.4
उ॒त स्य दे॒वो भुव॑नस्य स॒क्षणि॒स्त्वष्टा॒ ग्नाभिः॑ स॒जोषा॑ जूजुव॒द्रथ॑म् ।
इळा॒ भगो॑ बृहद्दि॒वोत रोद॑सी पू॒षा पुरं॑धिर॒श्विना॒वधा॒ पती॑ ॥
And may that god, Tvaṣṭar, helper of the world, together with the wives, speed the chariot onward. Iḷā, Bhaga, the wide heaven, both worlds, Pūṣan the foe-dispeller, and the two Aśvins — these are the lords.
2.31.5
उ॒त त्ये दे॒वी सु॒भगे॑ मिथू॒दृशो॒षासा॒नक्ता॒ जग॑तामपी॒जुवा॑ ।
स्तु॒षे यद्वां॑ पृथिवि॒ नव्य॑सा॒ वचः॑ स्था॒तुश्च॒ वय॒स्त्रिव॑या उप॒स्तिरे॑ ॥
And those two goddesses, auspicious and of equal sight, Dawn and Night, who impel the moving world. O earth, when I praise you both with new speech, then the threefold life of the stationary and the moving appears at the resting-place.
2.31.6
उ॒त वः॒ शंस॑मु॒शिजा॑मिव श्मसि॒ अहि॑र्बु॒ध्न्यो॑ऽज एक॑पादु॒त ।
त्रि॒त ऋ॑भु॒क्षाः स॑वि॒ता चनो॑ दधे अ॒पां नपा॑दाशु॒हेमा॑ धि॒या शमि॑ ॥
And I sing your praise like a singer of Uśij. Ahi Budhnya, Aja Ekapad, Trita, Ṛbhukṣan, Savitar established the sacrificial act; Āśuhemā, son of the waters, by thought in the peaceful place.
2.31.7
ए॒ता वो॑ व॒श्म्युद्य॑ता यजत्रा॒ अत॑क्षन्ना॒यवो॒ नव्य॑से॒ सम् ।
श्र॒व॒स्यवो॒ वाजं॑ चका॒नाः सप्ति॒र्न रथ्यो॒ अह॑ धी॒तिम॑श्याः ॥
O worthy gods, I raise these hymns up for you. Mortals seeking renown have fashioned them together for the newer one; desiring strength and reward, may they reach insight like a chariot-horse.
