Sukta 9
शं नो मित्रः शं वरुणः शं विष्णुः शं प्रजापतिः । शं न इन्द्रो बृहस्पतिः शं नो भवत्वर्यमा
śáṃ no mitráḥ śáṃ váruṇaḥ śáṃ víṣṇuḥ śáṃ prajā́patiḥ | śáṃ na índro bृहáspátiḥ śáṃ no bhavatv aryamā́
Welfare to us be Mitra, welfare Varuṇa; welfare be Viṣṇu, welfare Prajāpati. Welfare to us be Indra and Bṛhaspati; welfare to us let Aryaman be.
हमारे लिए मित्र कल्याणकारी हों, वरुण कल्याणकारी हों; विष्णु कल्याणकारी हों, प्रजापति कल्याणकारी हों। हमारे लिए इन्द्र और बृहस्पति कल्याणकारी हों; हमारे लिए अर्यमन् भी कल्याणकारी हों।
