pra ye yayuravṛkāso rathā iva nṛpātāro janānām uta svena śavasā śūśuvurnara uta kṣiyanti sukṣitim
Where the wolves went like chariots, kings’ slayers among peoples, there they hastened with their own carcass; men perish or their strength wanes, the well-struck fall away from the realm.
Those worshippers, the benefactors of men, doing injury to none who go to you, like chariots (to thefarm), either prosper by their own strength, or inhabit an excellent abode.
Those who have led the way, like cars, offending none, those who are guardians of the men- Also through their own might the heroes have grown strong, and dwell in safe and happy homes.
