Equip the chariot horses, O craftsmen, the thunderbolt priest to the shining firmament. They magnified Indra with rays, making the day strong to slay at the dawn.
The Ṛbhus have fabricated your car, Indra, the invoked of many, adapted to its horses; Tvaṣṭā (had made) your radiant thunderbolt; the venerable (Aṅgirasas), praising Indra with hymns, have given him vigour for the destruction of Ahi.
Anus have wrought a chariot for thy Courser, and Tvastar, Much-invoked! thy bolt that glitters. The Brahmans with their songs exalting Indra increased his strength that he might slaughter Ahi.
