Translation: You, the subduer (of adversaries), pierce every rain (confining) skin; you overtake, hero, every flying mortal (cloud), and abandon (it) when exhausted (of its water) for such glorious deed, Indra, I offer praise to you; to heaven; to the self-glorifying Rudra; to Mitra; (to each) the benefactor (of mankind) for such glorious (deed).
Mandala 1, Sukta 129, Verse 4
Sanskrit: अस्माकं व इन्द्रमुश्मसीष्टये सखायं विश्वायुं प्रासहं युजं वाजेषु प्रासहं युजम् । अस्माकं ब्रह्मोतयेऽवा पृत्सुषु कासु चित् । नहि त्वा शत्रुः स्तरतेः स्तृणोषि यं विश्वं शत्रुं: स्तृणोषि यम् ॥
Transliteration: asmākaṃ va indramuśmasīṣṭaye sakhāyaṃ viśvāyuṃ prāsahaṃ yujaṃ vājeṣu prāsahaṃ yujam | asmākaṃ brahmotaye'vā pṛtsuṣu kāsu cit | nahi tvā śatruḥ starateḥ stṛṇoṣi yaṃ viśvaṃ śatruṃ: stṛṇoṣi yam ||
Translation: We desire, (priests), Indra to be present at your sacrifice, (he who is) our friend, the frequenter of all (ceremonies), the endurer (of enemies), the ally (of his worshippers), the patient expecter of (sacrificial) viands, associated (with the Maruts); do you, Indra, guard our holy rite for our preservation, for in whatsoever contests (you may engage), no enemy whom you oppose, prevails against you; you prevail over every enemy whom (you oppose).
Mandala 1, Sukta 129, Verse 5
Sanskrit: नि षू नमातिमतिं कयस्य चित्तेजिष्ठाभिररणिभिर्नोतिभिरुग्राभिरुग्रोतिभिः । नेषि णो यथा पुरानेनाः शूर मन्यसे । विश्वानि पूरोरप पर्षि वह्निरासा वह्निर्नो अच्छ ॥
Transliteration: ni ṣū namātimatiṃ kayasya cittejiṣṭhābhiraraṇibhirnotibhirugrābhirugrotibhiḥ | neṣi ṇo yathā purānenāḥ śūra manyase | viśvāni pūrorapa parṣi vahnirāsā vahnirno accha ||
Translation: Humble the adversary of every one (your worshippers) fierce (Indra), by your aids, like radiant paths, (to glory); by your powerful aids, gude us, hero, as you have guided our forefathers, for you are honoured (by all). You (Indra), who are the sustainer (of the world), remove all (the sins) of man; present at our sacrifice, you are the bearer (of good things).
