RV 42 (5)

2 Draw thy Friend to thee like a cow at milking: O Singer, wake up Indra as a lover. 3 Why, Maghavan, do they call thee Bounteous; Giver? Quicken me: thou, I hear, art he who quickens. 4 Standing, in battle for their rights, together, the people, Indra, in the fray invoke thee. 5 Whoso with plenteous food for him expresses strong Somas as much quickly−coming treasure, 6 He unto whom we offer praises, Indra, Maghavan, who hath joined to ours his wishes,− 7 With thy fierce bolt, O God invoked of many, drive to a distance from afar the foeman. 8 Indra, the swallower of strong libations rich in the boons they bring, the potent Somas, 9 Yea, by superior play he wins advantage, when he, a gambler, piles his gains in season. 10 O Much−invoked, may we subdue all famine and evil want with store of grain and cattle. 11 Brhaspati protect us from the rearward, and from above, and from below, from sinners!
