Sukta 88
धुनेतयः सुप्रकेतं मदन्तो बृहस्पते अभि ये नस्ततस्रे। पृषन्तं सृप्रमदब्धमूर्वं बृहस्पते रक्षतादस्य योनिम्
dhunétayaḥ supraketáṃ mádanto bृहáspate abhí yé nas tatasré | pṛ́ṣantaṃ sṛprám adabdhám ūrváṃ bृहáspate rákṣatād asyá yónim ||
The Shakers, exulting, of good guidance—O Br̥haspati—who have pressed on against us: the speckled, the stout, the unassailable strength—O Br̥haspati—do thou guard us from his very seat of birth.
Les «Secoueurs», exultant, de bonne conduite, ô Bṛhaspati, ceux qui se sont rués contre nous : le bigarré, le robuste, la force inattaquable—ô Bṛhaspati, garde-nous de lui, dès son propre siège d’origine.
