Sukta 6

ये देवा दिविषदो अन्तरिक्षसदश्च ये। पृथिव्यां शक्रा ये श्रितास्ते नो मुञ्चन्त्वंहसः

yé devā́ diviṣádaḥ antárikṣasádaś ca yé | pṛthivyā́ṃ śakrá yé śritā́s té no muñcántv áṃhasaḥ ||

What Gods there be who dwell in heaven, and whatso dwell in mid-air; what mighty ones on earth are set and stationed—let these for us unloose from anguish and from sin.

जो देव स्वर्ग में निवास करते हैं, और जो अन्तरिक्ष में स्थित हैं; जो पृथ्वी पर शक्तिशाली होकर प्रतिष्ठित हैं—वे हमें अंहस (कष्ट) और पाप से मुक्त करें।
