Served with oblations, first-born, mountain-render, Angiras' Son,
Brihaspati the holy.
With twice-firm path, dwelling in light, our Father, roars loudly, as a bull, to earth and heaven.
20.90.2
jánāya cid yá ī́vate u lokáṃ bŕ̥haspátir deváhūtau cakā́ra |

Brihaspati who made for such a people wide room and verge when Gods were invocated—
Slaying his foe he breaketh down their cattles, quelling his enemies and those who hate him.
20.90.3
bŕ̥haspátiḥ sám ajayad vásūni mahó vrajā́n gómate devá eṣáḥ |
apáḥ síṣāsant svàr ápratīto bŕ̥haspátir hánty amítram arkáiḥ ||3||
Brihaspati in war hath won rich treasures, hath won, this God, the great stalls filled with cattle.
Striving to win waters and light, resistless, Brihaspati with light- ning smites the foeman.
