adhvaryavo yo dṛbhīkaṃ jaghāna yo gā udājadapa hi valaṃ vaḥ tasmā etamantarikṣe na vātamindraṃ somairorṇuta jūrna vastraiḥ
The Adhvaryu who struck the stronghold, who yoked the kine and brought the herd — therefore set this within the firmament; may Indra, with Soma, clothe the aged in garments.
Priests, offer this libation, which, like the wind in the firmament, (is the cause of rain), to him who slew Dṛbhīka, destroyed Bala, andliberated the cows; heap Indra with Soma, as an old man (is covered) with garments.
Ye ministers, to him who smote Drhhikas who drove the kine forth, and discovered Vala, Offer this draught, like Vita in the region: clothe him with Soma even as steeds with trappings.
