Do not slay us, Indra; give us not the beyond; do not deprive us of cherished food. Grant us riches, O generous one; do not let our vessels and household goods be taken away.
Harm us not, Indra, abandon us not; deprive us not of the enjoyments that aare dear to us; injure not, affluent Śakra, our unborn offspring; harm not those who are capable (only of crawling) on their knees.
Slay us not, Indra; do not thou forsake us: steal not away the joys which we delight in. Rend not our unborn brood, strong Lord of Bounty! our vessels with the life that is within them.
