Mantra 5
Sukta 31
यां ते चक्रुर्गार्हपत्ये पूर्वाग्नावुत दुश्चितः । शालायां कृत्यां यां चक्रुः पुनः प्रति हरामि ताम्
yā́m te cakrúrgā́rhapatye pū́rvāgnā́v utá dúścitaḥ | śā́lāyāṃ kṛtyā́m yā́m cakrúḥ púnaḥ práti harāmi tā́m ||
What witchcraft the evil-minded have wrought against thee in the Gārhapatya, in the ancient household fire; what kṛtyā they have made in the hall—that same I bear back again in return.
وأيَّ سِحرٍ صنعه سيّئو النيّة عليكَ في نارِ الـGārhapatya، نارِ البيتِ القديمة؛ وأيَّ kṛtyā صنعوها في القاعة—فإنّي أُعيدُها نفسَها عليهم من جديدٍ جزاءً وردًّا.
Rishi: Atharvanic seer (traditional attribution uncertain).
Devata: Kṛtyā (hostile) vis-à-vis the sanctity of Agni/Gārhapatya.
