Dense with hosts, the robber-foe Jambha burns; he who struck at us with mortal might is crushed. The man who cherishes killing is not ours—he is routed and driven from the fortress.

📖 Book ReferenceWisdomLibRig Veda English TranslationSource ↗

Agni, with the burning rays, destroy entirely our foes, who make no gifts, as (potter's ware) with a club; let not one who is inimical to us, nor the man who attacks us with sharp weapons, prevail against us.

📖 Book ReferenceRalph T.H. GriffithThe Rig Veda, 1896Source ↗

Smite down as with a club, thou who hast fire for teeth, smite thou the wicked, right and left. Let not the man who plots against us in the night, nor any foe prevail o'er us.
