Mantra 4
Sukta 3
मह्यं यजन्तां मम यानीष्टाकूतिः सत्या मनसो मे अस्तु । एनो मा नि गां कतमच्चनाहं विश्वे देवा अभि रक्षन्तु मेह
máhyaṃ yajantāṃ máma yā́ íṣṭākū́tiḥ satyā́ mánaso me astu | éno mā́ ní gāṃ katamáccánā́haṃ víśve devā́ abhí rakṣantu mehā́ ||
For me let them perform worship; and mine—this purposed wish—let it be made true from my mind. Let no offence, of any sort whatever, come down upon me: let all the Gods guard me hereabout, even here.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (Anukramaṇī attribution varies by school)
Devata: Viśve Devāḥ (All-Gods) as guardians; implicit focus on satya as ritual power
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh-like (Atharvanic)
