Rig Veda 8.47.12: Mandala 8, Sukta 47, Mantra 12
Sukta 8.47
नेह भद्रं रक्षस्विने नावयै नोपया उत । गवे च भद्रं धेनवे वीराय च श्रवस्यतेऽनेहसो व ऊतयः सुतयो व ऊतयः ॥
néha bhadráṃ rakṣasvíne nā́vayái nópayā́ utá | gáve ca bhadráṃ dhénave vīrā́ya ca śravasyaté ’nehasaḥ vo ūtáyaḥ su-ūtáyaḥ vo ūtáyaḥ ||
Kein Heil sei hier dem, der unter den Rakṣas umhergeht, weder dem, der herabkommt, noch dem, der in feindlicher Absicht nahetritt. Das Heil aber sei der Kuh und der Milchkuh, und dem Helden, der nach dem Ruhm des wahren Hörens verlangt. Eure hilflosen, eure guten Hilfen seien mit uns.
