1 What worthy praise will bring before us the Mighty One, the Son of Strength, that He may grant us riches; for He the Hero gives the singer treasures: He is the Lord who sends us gifts, ye people.

2 To be invoked and hymned in fight with the obstructor, that well-praised Mighty One gives us real bounties. That Bountiful One brings comfort in the foray to the religious man who gives for His sake.

3 Him, verily, the men invoke in combat; risking their lives they make Him their protector, when heroes, foe to foe, give up their bodies, fighting, each side, for children and their offspring.

4 Strong God! the folk at need put forth their vigour, striving together in the whirl of battle. When warrior bands encounter one another, some in the grapple quit themselves like heroes.

5 Hence many a one acknowledges the might of the Mighty One: hence let the brew succeed the meal-offering. Hence let the gift banish those who give not: even hence I joy to pay the Strong One worship.

6 The Mighty One gives comfort to the man who truly gives, for him who longs for it, not disaffected, with devoted spirit: this man He takes to be His friend in battles.

7 He who this day for the Mighty One prepares the brew and fries the grains of barley, loving the hymns of that devoted servant, to him may the Mighty One give heroic vigour.

11 Now, O Mighty One! lauded, glorified with praises, let wealth swell high like rivers for the singer. For Thee a new hymn, Lord of Bays, is fashioned. May we, car-borne, through song be victors ever.
