yadrodasī pradivo asti bhūmā heḷo devānāmuta martyatrā tadādityā vasavo rudriyāso rakṣoyuje tapuraghaṃ dadhāta
When the dawn and heaven are broad, O earth, may the gods be generous and the mortal realm steadfast. Then the Ādityas, the Vasus, the Rudras, the Maruts put on protection, and set a realm of sanctity.
Heaven and Earth, Ādiyas, Vasus, Maruts, rende that dread ange of the gods which (has) of old (been directed) against mortals, destructive and fatal to him who is associated with the rākṣasas.
Whate'er from olden time, Heaven, Earth! existeth great object of the wrath of Gods and mortals, Make that, Adityas, Vasus, sons of Rudra, an evil brand to one allied with demons.
