Mantra 3
Sukta 26
अन्यत्रास्मन्न्युऽच्यतु सहस्राक्षो अमर्त्यः । यं द्वेषाम तमृच्छतु यमु द्विष्मस्तमिज्जहि
anyátrā́smán ny ùcyatu sahasrākṣó amártyaḥ | yáṃ dveṣā́ma tám ṛ́cchatu yám u dviṣmás tám íj jahi ||
Elsewhere than from us let the thousand-eyed Immortal be made to set it down. Let it go to him whom we hate; him whom indeed we hate—him, even him, do thou smite.
Ailleurs que loin de nous, que l’Immortel aux mille yeux le dépose. Qu’il aille vers celui que nous haïssons; celui que nous haïssons vraiment—lui, oui lui, frappe-le.
