Atharva Veda 10.5.49: Kanda 10, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 5, Mantra 49
Sukta 5
परा॑ शृणीहि॒ तप॑सा यातु॒धाना॒न् परा॑ग्ने॒ रक्षो॒ हर॑सा शृणीहि । परा॒र्चिषा॒ मूर॑देवां छृणीहि॒ परा॑सु॒तृपः॒ शोशु॑चतः शृणीहि
párā śṛṇīhi tápasā yātudhā́nān párāgne rákṣo hárasā śṛṇīhi | párārcíṣā mū́radevāṃ chṛṇīhi párāsutṛ́paḥ śóśucataḥ śṛṇīhi ||
Crush away, with heat, the Yātudhānas; crush away, O Agni, the Rakṣas with impetuous might. Crush away with thy flame the false god; crush away the unsated, the raging, crush them away.
अग्नि, अपनी गर्मी से यातुधानों को भगा दे। अपनी ताकत से राक्षस को भगा दे। अपनी आग से झूठे भगवान को भगा दे। जो लोग कभी खुश नहीं होते, जो हमेशा गुस्से में रहते हैं, उनको भी भगा दे।
