मुमुक्तमस्मान् दुरितादवद्याज्जुषेथां यज्ञममृतमस्मासु धत्तम्
mumuktám asmā́n duritā́d avadyā́j juṣéthāṃ yajñám amṛ́tam asmā́su dhattam
Release us from mischance, from blameworthy offence; accept with favour the sacrifice, the deathless, and set it fast within us.
আমাদের দুরিত থেকে, নিন্দনীয় অপরাধ থেকে মুক্ত করো। অমৃত-স্বরূপ যজ্ঞকে প্রসন্ন হয়ে গ্রহণ করো, এবং তা আমাদের অন্তরে দৃঢ়ভাবে স্থাপন করো।

Devata: Dual protective deities (contextually paired guardians; often construed as Agni–Soma or allied protectors in Atharvanic śānti)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (predominant in AV apotropaic stanzas; exact metrical scan may show Atharvanic flexibility)
