Samhita Patha (IAST)
न॒हि तेषा॑म॒मा च॒न नाध्व॑सु वार॒णेषु॑ । ईशे॑ रि॒पुर॒घशं॑सः ॥
Transliteration
náhi téṣām amā́ cána nā́dhvasu vāraṇéṣu | ī́śe ripúr agha-śáṃsaḥ ||
Translation
For those upheld by these powers, no hostile will—neither near at hand nor on the difficult roads and obstructing passages—can rule; the evil-speaking adversary finds no sovereignty there.
