Sukta 9

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

तयार्बुदे प्रणुत्तानामिन्द्रो हन्तु वरंवरम्। अमित्राणां शचीपतिर्मामीषां मोचि कश्चन

IAST Transliteration

táyā ’rbude prá-nuttānām índro hantu váraṃ-varam | amítrāṇāṃ śacī́-patir mā́ ’mīṣāṃ móci káś caná

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Therewith, O Arbuda, let Indra smite the routed foes—each best man after best. Let Śacī’s Lord, against the enemies, suffer not one of these to slip away at all.

Translation

હે અર્બુદા, તે શક્તિથી ભાગી છૂટેલા શત્રુઓને—શ્રેષ્ઠ પછી શ્રેષ્ઠ—ઇન્દ્ર વારંવાર પ્રહાર કરીને સંહારે. શચીપતિ શત્રુઓ વિષે એમમાંથી એક પણ કોઈ રીતે છટકી ન જાય એમ કરે.
