Sukta 10
नमस्ते राजन् वरुणास्तु मन्यवे विश्वं ह्युऽग्र निचिकेषि द्रुग्धम् । सहस्रमन्यान् प्र सुवामि साकं शतं जीवाति शरदस्तवायम्
námas te rājan váruṇāstu mányave víśvaṃ hí ugrá nicikéṣi drugdhám | sahásram anyā́n prá suvāmi sā́kaṃ śatáṃ jī́vā́ti śarádas tavā́yám ||
Homage to thee, O King Varuṇa: be (this) for thy Wrath. For thou, O fierce one, hast indeed taken note of every treachery. A thousand others, together, I send forth (in its stead): may this man, by thy leave, live a hundred autumns.
হে ৰজা বৰুণ, তোমাক নমস্কাৰ; এইটো তোমাৰ মন্যু (ক্ৰোধ)ৰ বাবে হওক। হে উগ্ৰজন, তুমি সঁচাকৈয়ে সকলো দ্ৰুগ্ধ (বিশ্বাসঘাত/অপৰাধ) লক্ষ্য কৰিছা। তাৰ সলনি একেলগে মই হাজাৰ আন (দোষ/বলি) আগবঢ়াই পঠাওঁ; তোমাৰ অনুমতিত এই মানুহে এশ শৰত (বছৰ) জীয়াই থাকক।

Devata: Varuṇa (with Manyu—wrath—as the operative aspect).
