English translation:

“(Fleet as) a horse, the pure Soma, the illume of heaven, hastens, the destroyer of rākṣasas, past the woollen fleece.”

Commentary by Sāyaṇa: Ṛgveda-bhāṣya

The illume of heaven: rocanā = rocakaḥ; alternative rendering: (Fleet as) a horse, the pure Soma, the destroyer of rākṣasas, hastens towards the light of heaven through the woollen fleece

He, the prizewinner, self-purifying, runs through the luminous realms of heaven,
through the sheep’s fleece, as demon-smasher.

Note the slight reversed phonetic figure: a … diváḥ# b … vi dhāv(ati).

This vigorous Pavamana runs forth to the luminous realm of heaven,
Fiend-slayer, through the fleecy sieve.

Der Preisrenner durchläuft, sich läuternd, die Lichter des Himmels, die Schafwolle, der die Unholde erschlägt.

Der Renner eilt, der flammende, hin durch des Himmels Aetherraum, Feindtödtend durch das wollne Sieb.

English translation:

“The pure Soma upon the high plural ce (of the sacrifice) of Trita, attended by its kindred rays, has lighted up the Sun.”

He, purifying himself on the back of Trita along with Trita’s kin
[=fingers],
has made the sun shine.

On the sense of this vs., see published introduction. As indicated there, there is much disagreement about the referents. To my disc. there I will only add a few comments.

Relevant for the whole vs. is IX.26.5 tám sā́nāv ádhi jāmáyo, hárim hinvanti ádribhiḥ “Him do the siblings [=fingers] impel with the stones on the back (of the filter),” which contains both jāmáyaḥ and sā́nu- as here, with the ‘siblings’ being the fingers and the ‘back’ the filter. The ‘back’ (sā́nu-) in soma hymns is basically always the filter, whatever else it may cosmically represent. Moreover, Trita is an archetypal soma-preparer; for this role see, inter alia, Geldner’s n. to IX.34,4 and Ober I.197-98, esp. on the similar role that Θrita fulfills atq the haoma pressing in the Hom Yašt. In at least two other places in IX his ‘maidens’ (yóṣanaḥ), the fingers, are involved: see in the next hymn. IX.38.2 etáṃ trítasya yóṣaṇaḥ, háriṃ hinvanti ádribhiḥ “This tawny one do the maidens of Trita [=fingers] impel with the stones” and almost identical IX.32.2. That the b pāda in these vss. with “Trita’s maidens” as subj.

(in pāda a) is identical to the one in IX.26.5 just quoted with jāmáyaḥ as subj. (in pāda a) imposes the chain of identifications “Trita’s maidens’ = “siblings” = “fingers.” Therefore, though it may be Trita’s back in some sense [he owns and deploys the filter] it’s surely also his fingers, here called jāmí-, not Soma’s or anyone else’s (as has been suggested by others), and though they may stand for various things (Dawns, heavenly rivers, whatever – again based on various scholars’ suggestions), they start out as fingers.

This Payamana up above Trita’s high ridge hath made the Sun,
Together with the Sisters, shine.

Auf dem erhöhten Platze des Trita ließ Pavamana die Sonne leuchten im Verein mit den Geschwistern des Trita.

Hoch auf des Trita Bergeshöh entzündete der flammende Die Sonne sammt der Schwesterschar.

English translation:

“The divine Soma, when effused by the priest, hastens in his might to the pitchers for Indra.”

Commentary by Sāyaṇa: Ṛgveda-bhāṣya

In his might: Sāmaveda reads mamaṃhayan for maṃhanā; interpreted as mahān; as an adverb, prompt

He, the god impelled by the poet, runs to the wooden cups—
the drop with his munificence for Indra.

Urged onward by the sage, the God speeds forward to the casks of wood,
Indu to Indra willingly.

Der Gott läuft, vom Dichter getrieben, nach den Holzgefäßen, der Saft bereitwillig für Indra.

Er strömt, vom Sänger ausgesandt, der Gott, zu den Gefässen hin, Zu Indra Indu voll Begier.
