Rig Veda 1.18: O BRAHMANAPSATI, make him who presses Soma glorious

O BRAHMANAPSATI, make him who presses Soma glorious,
Even Kaksivan Ausija.

The rich, the healer of disease, who giveth wealth, increaseth store,
The prompt,--may he be with us still.

Let not the foeman's curse, let not a mortal's onslaught fall on us
Preserve us, Brahmanaspati.

Ne'er is the mortal hero harmed whom Indra, Brahmanaspati,
And Soma graciously inspire.

Do, thou, O Brahmanaspati, and Indra, Soma, Daksina,
Preserve that mortal from distress.

To the Assembly's wondrous Lord, to Indra's lovely Friend who gives
Wisdom, have I drawn near in prayer.

He without whom no sacrifice, e'en of the wise man, prospers; he
Stirs up the series of thoughts.

He makes the oblation prosper, he promotes the course of sacrifice:
Our voice of praise goes to the Gods.

I have seen Narasamsa, him most resolute, most widely famed,
As 'twere the Household Priest of heaven.
