Sukta 2

अस॑र्ववीरश्चरतु॒ प्रणु॑त्तो॒ द्वेष्यो॑ मि॒त्राणां॑ परिव॒र्ग्यः॑१ स्वाना॑म्। उ॒त पृ॑थि॒व्यामव॑ स्यन्ति वि॒द्युत॑ उ॒ग्रो वो॑ दे॒वः प्र मृ॑णत् स॒पत्ना॑न्

asárvavīraś caratu práṇuttaḥ dvéṣyo mitrā́ṇāṃ parivárgyaḥ svā́nām | utá pṛthivyā́m áva syanti vidyúta ugró vaḥ deváḥ prá mṛṇat sapátnān ||

Let him, expelled, go wandering, bereft of all his champions—hateful to friends, to be shunned of his own. And upon the earth the lightnings are hurled down: your fierce god smiteth the rivals utterly.

સર્વવીરો વિનાનો, હાંકી કાઢેલો તે ભટકતો રહે; મિત્રોને અપ્રિય, પોતાના જ લોકોમાં ત્યાજ્ય બને. અને પૃથ્વી પર વીજળીઓ પટકાય છે: તમારો ઉગ્ર દેવ શત્રુ-સ્પર્ધકોને સંપૂર્ણ રીતે ચકનાચૂર કરે છે.
