Sukta 3
यस्ते॒ हवं वि॒वद॑त् सजा॒तो यश्च॒ निष्ट्यः॑ । अ॑पाञ्चमिन्द्र॒ तं कृ॒त्वाथे॒ममि॒हाव॑ गमय
yás te haváṃ vivádat sajātó yáś ca niṣṭyàḥ | apā́ñcam indra táṃ kṛtvā́thémam ihā́vá gamaya
Whoso disputes thy rightful call—be he thy kinsman, or an alien—him, Indra, make thou backward-turned; and then bring this man hither, even here, to his place.
जो भी तुम्हारी बात को गलत बोलता है, चाहे वो अपना हो या पराया, इंद्र उसको उल्टा कर दे। और फिर इस आदमी को यहाँ ला दे, उसी जगह पर।
