4.24.1
का सु॑ष्टु॒तिः शव॑सः सू॒नुमिन्द्र॑मर्वाची॒नं राध॑स॒ आ व॑वर्तत् ।
द॒दिर्हि वी॒रो गृ॑ण॒ते वसू॑नि॒ स गोप॑तिर्नि॒ष्षिधां॑ नो जनासः ॥
What fine praise turned Indra, son of might, toward us, coming hither for wealth? The hero gives riches to the singer; he is the lord of cattle. O men, may he drive off our attackers.
4.24.2
स वृ॑त्र॒हत्ये॒ हव्यः॒ स ईड्यः॒ स सुष्टु॑त॒ इन्द्रः॑ स॒त्यरा॑धाः ।
स याम॒न्ना म॒घवा॒ मर्त्या॑य ब्रह्मण्य॒ते सुष्व॑ये॒ वरि॑वो धात् ॥
In the slaying of Vṛtra he alone is to be invoked, he alone is to be praised; Indra, well praised, is he whose gifts are true. On the journey he, the bountiful lord, grants wealth to the mortal who prays and presses soma.
4.24.3
तमिन्नरो॒ वि ह्व॑यन्ते समी॒के रि॑रि॒क्वांस॑स्त॒न्वः॑ कृण्वत॒ त्राम् ।
मि॒थो यत्त्या॒गमु॒भया॑सो॒ अग्म॒न्नर॑स्तो॒कस्य॒ तन॑यस्य सा॒तौ ॥
Heroes call upon him separately in the contest; having won, they make their bodies a shelter. When the two hosts come face to face, they call upon him for the victory of son and offspring.
4.24.4
क्र॒तू॒यन्ति॑ क्षि॒तयो॒ योग॑ उग्राशुषा॒णासो॑ मि॒थो अर्ण॑सातौ ।
सं यद्विशोऽव॑वृत्रन्त यु॒ध्मा आदिन्नेम॑ इन्द्रयन्ते अ॒भीके॑ ॥
When the peoples clash together in battle, at the meeting of the waters the leaders, serving Indra, come forward into the face-to-face encounter. O mighty one, they press onward eagerly.
4.24.5
आदिद्ध॒ नेम॑ इन्द्रि॒यं य॑जन्त॒ आदित्प॒क्तिः पु॑रो॒ळाशं॑ रिरिच्यात् ।
आदित्सोमो॒ वि प॑पृच्या॒दसु॑ष्वी॒नादिज्जु॑जोष वृष॒भं यज॑ध्यै ॥
Then indeed the leaders worship Indra's power; then let the row of offerers fill the barley cake. Then indeed let Soma scatter it from the one who has not pressed soma; then indeed that bull is pleased for the sacrifice.
4.24.6
कृ॒णोत्य॑स्मै॒ वरि॑वो॒ य इ॒त्थेन्द्रा॑य॒ सोम॑मुश॒ते सु॒नोति॑ ।
स॒ध्री॒चीने॑न॒ मन॒सावि॑वेन॒न्तमित्सखा॑यं कृणुते स॒मत्सु॑ ॥
For whoever presses soma for Indra in this way and praises him, he prepares riches; with a mind turned toward him he makes that man his friend, and in the contests he is his ally.
4.24.7
य इन्द्रा॑य सु॒नव॒त्सोम॑म॒द्य पचा॑त्प॒क्तीरु॒त भृ॒ज्जाति॑ धा॒नाः ।
प्रति॑ मना॒योरु॒चथा॑नि॒ हर्य॒न्तस्मि॑न्दध॒द्वृष॑णं॒ शुष्म॒मिन्द्रः॑ ॥
May he who today presses soma for Indra, cooks the cooked dishes and parches the grains, bringing the hymns of Manāyu, have Indra place in him virile vigor.
4.24.8
य॒दा स॑म॒र्यं व्यचे॒दृघा॑वा दी॒र्घं यदा॒जिम॒भ्यख्य॑द॒र्यः ।
अचि॑क्रद॒द्वृष॑णं॒ पत्न्यच्छा॑ दुरो॒ण आ निशि॑तं सोम॒सुद्भिः॑ ॥
When in the contest he saw apart, O destroyer of the foe — when he looked upon the enemy in the long battle, he roared a virile roar toward the wife, with (the weapon) sharpened at home by the soma-pressers.
4.24.9
भूय॑सा व॒स्नम॑चर॒त्कनी॒योऽवि॑क्रीतो अकानिषं॒ पुन॒र्यन् ।
स भूय॑सा॒ कनी॑यो॒ नारि॑रेचीद्दी॒ना दक्षा॒ वि दु॑हन्ति॒ प्र वा॒णम् ॥
With much possession one moved; the smaller remained unsold — I made it unsold, going again. He with much possession did not surpass the smaller; the poor and the wise milk the stream apart.
4.24.10
क इ॒मं द॒शभि॒र्ममेन्द्रं॑ क्रीणाति धे॒नुभिः॑ ।
य॒दा वृ॒त्राणि॒ जङ्घ॑न॒दथै॑नं मे॒ पुन॑र्ददत् ॥
Who buys this Indra with my ten cows? When he strikes down the obstructions, let him give him back to me again.
4.24.11
नू ष्टु॒त इ॑न्द्र॒ नू गृ॑णा॒न इषं॑ जरि॒त्रे न॒द्यो॑ न पी॑पेः ।
अका॑रि ते हरिवो॒ ब्रह्म॒ नव्यं॑ धि॒या स्या॑म र॒थ्यः॑ सदा॒साः ॥
Now praised, O Indra, now praising, give food to the singer — as rivers fill, you fill. For you, O possessor of bays, a new prayer has been made; with thought may we always be charioteers with you.
