Sukta 3.31
पतिर्भव वृत्रहन्त्सूनृतानां गिरां विश्वायुर्वृषभो वयोधाः । आ नो गहि सख्येभिः शिवेभिर्महान्महीभिरूतिभिः सरण्यन् ॥
pátir bhava vṛtrahan sūnṛ́tānāṃ girā́ṃ viśvā́yur vṛ́ṣabho vayo-dhā́ḥ | ā́ no gahi sakhyébhiḥ śivébhir mahā́n mahī́bhir ūtíbhiḥ saraṇyán ||
Sei der Herr, o Vṛtra‑Schlächter, der wahr‑begeisterten Aussprüche (sūnṛtā́), der Worte, die das Leben weiten; der Stier, der unsere Kräfte des Gedeihens trägt. Komm zu uns mit heilsamen Freundschaften, mit großen, mächtigen Hilfen, o liebenswerter Führer zur Zuflucht.
