@lordsmobile8769 Kindly refer to a translation by T.H. Griffith as your beginning point and then move further if want to uncover deeper layers of this hymn. Actually the language used in Rig Veda, Vedic Sanskrit, had developed and changed so much that till the time commentaries like Brahmanas and Aranyankas were written, every one was just groping in the dark with the language and giving a possible meaning of their own by reverse engineering the language spoken at the contemporary time. Till the time Panini was beginning to explain and codify Sanskrit and develop a standardized form from the language, Sanskrit & Prakrit, spoken in various parts of the subcontinent it was more than 1000 years of evolution for Vedic Sanskrit used in Rig Veda mandalas. Also society had changed tremendously for being a pastoral one to a settled agricultural type with surplus production which enabled second urbanisation of the northern subcontinent, remember the first urbanisation evidence was of Indus cities which decayed and vanished replaced by Vedic village type settlements with semi-nomadic lifestyle. In short it's very difficult to analyse what they actually mean in Rig Veda. Only glimpses and struggles with indigenous population and struggles between gods themselves are mentioned. Most of it is singing praising of one god, and their attributes, or the other gods. In some verses a reader of today may even question if the sages were substance abusers singing praises of soma — allegedly, botanists say, a drink made of ephedra primarily with other substances like milk and perhaps other herbs — and its centrality in stimulating their creative abilities.
Don't get me wrong whatever it was they were doing at that point and whatever their belief system would have been: it is beautiful and enigmatic how they have composed the language of those hymns, the aesthetics of it, the metres, the sounds of it (which unfortunately have been lost today because of changes in enunciation and language evolution). Rig Veda is a pure collective and a genius effort which needs to be respected. Many of the practices and beliefs are still in practice today in the subcontinent. Like use and centrality of sacred Agni in wedding rituals in Hindu community. Caste system is not one of them and so is not myriad of other practices which claim Vedic descent.

Vinland it's sad you don't see the difference between Hinduism & Islam. Read the following verse from Qur'an:
Koran 2,191- slay the unbelievers wherever you find them
Koran 3,28- Muslims must not take the infidels as friends
Koran 3,85- Any religion other than islam is not acceptable
Koran 5,33- Maim & crucify the infidels if they criticise islam
Koran 8,12- Terrorise & behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran
Koran 8,60- Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorise the infidels
Koran 8,65- The unbelievers are stupid; urge the muslims to fight them
Koran 9,5- When oppurtunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you find them
Koran 9,30- The jews & christians are perverts, fight them
Koran 9,123- Make war on infidels living in your neighborhood
Koran 22,19- Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt thier skin & bellies
Koran 47,4- Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them
