10.147.1

śrat te̍ dadhāmi pratha̱māya̍ ma̱nyave 'ha̱n yad vṛ̱traṁ narya̍ṁ vi̱ver a̱paḥ |
u̱bhe yat tvā̱ bhava̍to̱ roda̍sī̱ anu̱ reja̍te̱ śuṣmā̍t pṛthi̱vī ci̍d adrivaḥ ||

I TRUST in thy first wrathful deed, O Indra, when thou slewest Vṛitra and didst work to profit man; What time the two world-halves fell short of thee in might, and the earth trembled at thy force, O Thunder-anned.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

10.147.2

tvam mā̱yābhi̍r anavadya mā̱yina̍ṁ śravasya̱tā mana̍sā vṛ̱tram a̍rdayaḥ |
tvām in naro̍ vṛṇate̱ gavi̍ṣṭiṣu̱ tvāṁ viśvā̍su̱ havyā̱sv iṣṭi̍ṣu ||

Thou with thy magic powers didst rend the conjurer Vṛitra, O Blameless One, with heart that longed for fame. Heroes elect thee when they battle for the prey, thee in all sacrifices worthy of renown.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

10.147.3

aiṣu̍ cākandhi puruhūta sū̱riṣu̍ vṛ̱dhāso̱ ye ma̍ghavann āna̱śur ma̱gham |
arca̍nti to̱ke tana̍ye̱ pari̍ṣṭiṣu me̱dhasā̍tā vā̱jina̱m ahra̍ye̱ dhane̍ ||

God Much-invoked, take pleasure in these princes here, who, thine exalters, Maghavan, have come to wealth. In synods, when the rite succeeds, they hymn the Strong for sons and progeny and riches undisturbed.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

10.147.4

sa in nu rā̱yaḥ subhṛ̍tasya cākana̱n mada̱ṁ yo a̍sya̱ raṁhya̱ṁ cike̍tati |
tvāvṛ̍dho maghavan dā̱śva̍dhvaro ma̱kṣū sa vāja̍m bharate̱ dhanā̱ nṛbhi̍ḥ ||

That man shall find delight in well-protected wealth whose care provides for him the quick-sought joyous draught. Bringing oblations, strengthened Maghavan, by thee, he swiftly wins the spoil with heroes in the fight.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

10.147.5

tvaṁ śardhā̍ya mahi̱nā gṛ̍ṇā̱na u̱ru kṛ̍dhi maghavañ cha̱gdhi rā̱yaḥ |
tvaṁ no̍ mi̱tro varu̍ṇo̱ na mā̱yī pi̱tvo na da̍sma dayase vibha̱ktā ||

Now for our band, O Maghavan, when lauded, make ample room with might, and grant us riches. Magician thou, our Varuṇa and Mitra, deal food to us, O Wondrous, as Dispenser.
