बृहस्पतिर्नः परि पातु पश्चादुतोत्तरस्मादधरादघायोः । इन्द्रः पुरस्तादुत मध्यतो नः सखा सखिभ्यो वरीयः कृणोतु

May Bṛhaspati guard us round about—from behind, and from the north, and from beneath, against the evil-doer. May Indra, from the front and from the midst, as our friend, make for our friends a better (safer) state.
বৃহস্পতিয়ে আমাক চাৰিওফালে ৰক্ষা কৰক—পিছফালৰ পৰা, উত্তৰৰ পৰা, আৰু তলৰ পৰা—অঘায়ু (দুষ্ট কৰ্মকাৰী)ৰ পৰা। ইন্দ্ৰে আগফালৰ পৰা আৰু মাজৰ পৰা, আমাৰ বন্ধু হৈ, আমাৰ বন্ধুসমূহৰ বাবে অধিক উত্তম (নিৰাপদ) অৱস্থা কৰি দিয়ক।
