8.42.1
अस्त॑भ्ना॒द्द्यामसु॑रो वि॒श्ववे॑दा॒ अमि॑मीत वरि॒माणं॑ पृथि॒व्याः ।
आसी॑द॒द्विश्वा॒ भुव॑नानि स॒म्राड्विश्वेत्तानि॒ वरु॑णस्य व्र॒तानि॑ ॥
The Asura Varuṇa upheld the heaven; the all-knowing one measured out the breadth of the earth. The sovereign king took his seat over all worlds, and those are indeed Varuṇa's laws everywhere.
8.42.2
ए॒वा व॑न्दस्व॒ वरु॑णं बृ॒हन्तं॑ नम॒स्या धीर॑म॒मृत॑स्य गो॒पाम् ।
स नः॒ शर्म॑ त्रि॒वरू॑थं॒ वि यं॑सत्पा॒तं नो॑ द्यावापृथिवी उ॒पस्थे॑ ॥
Thus praise Varuṇa, the mighty one; bow to the steadfast guardian of immortality. May he extend to us the threefold shelter; O Heaven and Earth, protect us both in his lap.
8.42.3
इ॒मां धियं॒ शिक्ष॑माणस्य देव॒ क्रतुं॒ दक्षं॑ वरुण॒ सं शि॑शाधि ।
ययाति॒ विश्वा॑ दुरि॒ता तरे॑म सु॒तर्मा॑ण॒मधि॒ नावं॑ रुहेम ॥
O god Varuṇa, guide this prayer, and the resolve and strength of the seeker, fully aright. So that we may cross over all troubles and climb onto the boat that carries us easily across.
8.42.4
आ वां॒ ग्रावा॑णो अश्विना धी॒भिर्विप्रा॑ अचुच्यवुः ।
नास॑त्या॒ सोम॑पीतये॒ नभ॑न्तामन्य॒के स॑मे ॥
O Aśvins, these pressing-stones and the wise seers have roared forth with prayers for you two. O Nāsatyas, for drinking soma, let the others, the equal ones, bow down.
8.42.5
यथा॑ वा॒मत्रि॑रश्विना गी॒र्भिर्विप्रो॒ अजो॑हवीत् ।
नास॑त्या॒ सोम॑पीतये॒ नभ॑न्तामन्य॒के स॑मे ॥
As Atri, the inspired priest, has called upon you two, O Aśvins, with songs, so too, O Nāsatyas, for drinking soma, let the others, the equal ones, bow down.
8.42.6
ए॒वा वा॑मह्व ऊ॒तये॒ यथाहु॑वन्त॒ मेधि॑राः ।
नास॑त्या॒ सोम॑पीतये॒ नभ॑न्तामन्य॒के स॑मे ॥
Thus I call upon you two for help, just as the wise singers called. O Nāsatyas, for drinking soma, let the others, the equal ones, bow down.
