9.99.1

आ ह॑र्य॒ताय॑ धृ॒ष्णवे॒ धनु॑स्तन्वन्ति॒ पौंस्य॑म् | शु॒क्रां व॑य॒न्त्यसु॑राय नि॒र्णिजं॑ वि॒पामग्रे॑ मही॒युव॑: ||

THEY for the Bold and Lovely One ply manly vigour like a bow: joyous, in front of songs they weave bright raiment for the Lord Divine.

9.99.2

अध॑ क्ष॒पा परि॑ष्कृतो॒ वाजाँ॑ अ॒भि प्र गा॑हते | यदी॑ वि॒वस्व॑तो॒ धियो॒ हरिं॑ हि॒न्वन्ति॒ यात॑वे ||

And he, made beautiful by night, dips forward into strengthening food', What time the sacrificer's thoughts speed on his way the Golden-hued.

9.99.3

तम॑स्य मर्जयामसि॒ मदो॒ य इ॑न्द्र॒पात॑मः | यं गाव॑ आ॒सभि॑र्द॒धुः पु॒रा नू॒नं च॑ सू॒रय॑: ||

We cleanse this gladdening drink of his the juice which Indra chiefly drinks—- That which kine took into their mouths, of old, and princes take it now.

9.99.4

तं गाथ॑या पुरा॒ण्या पु॑ना॒नम॒भ्य॑नूषत | उ॒तो कृ॑पन्त धी॒तयो॑ दे॒वानां॒ नाम॒ बिभ्र॑तीः ||

To him, while purifying, they have raised the ancient psalm of praise: And sacred songs which bear the names of Gods have supplicated him.

9.99.5

तमु॒क्षमा॑णम॒व्यये॒ वारे॑ पुनन्ति धर्ण॒सिम् | दू॒तं न पू॒र्वचि॑त्तय॒ आ शा॑सते मनी॒षिण॑: ||

They purify him as he drops, courageous, in the fleecy sieve. Him they instruct as messenger to bear the sage's morning prayer.

9.99.6

स पु॑ना॒नो म॒दिन्त॑म॒: सोम॑श्च॒मूषु॑ सीदति | प॒शौ न रेत॑ आ॒दध॒त्पति॑र्वचस्यते धि॒यः ||

Soma, best Cheerer, takes his seat, the while they cleanse him in the bowls. He as it were impregns the cow, and babbles on, the Lord of Song.

9.99.7

स मृ॑ज्यते सु॒कर्म॑भिर्दे॒वो दे॒वेभ्य॑: सु॒तः | वि॒दे यदा॑सु संद॒दिर्म॒हीर॒पो वि गा॑हते ||

He is effused and beautified, a God for Gods, by skilful men. He penetrates the mighty floods collecting all he knows therein.

9.99.8

सु॒त इ॑न्दो प॒वित्र॒ आ नृभि॑र्य॒तो वि नी॑यसे | इन्द्रा॑य मत्स॒रिन्त॑मश्च॒मूष्वा नि षी॑दसि ||

Pressed, Indu, guided by the men, thou art led to the cleaning sieve. Thou, yielding Indra highest joy, takest thy seat within the bowls.
