Sukta 18
अ॒प॒मृज्य॑ यातु॒धाना॒नप॒ सर्वा॑ अरा॒य्यः । अपा॑मार्ग॒ त्वया॑ व॒यं सर्वं॒ तदप॒ मृज्महे
apamṛ́jya yātudhā́nān ápa sárvā arā́yyaḥ | apāmārga tváyā vayáṃ sárvaṃ tád ápa mṛ́jmahe ||
Wiping away the sorcerers, away (go) all malignities. O Apāmārga, by thee we wipe away all that entire (brood).
Dengan menyapu bersih para penyihir, enyahlah segala keburukan yang memudaratkan. Wahai Apāmārga, dengan perantaraanmu kami menyapu bersih semuanya itu—seluruh keturunan itu.
