Sukta 9
शान्तानि पूर्वरूपाणि शान्तं नो अस्तु कृताकृतम्। शान्तं भूतं च भव्यं च सर्वमेव शमस्तु नः
śā́ntāni pūrvarūpā́ṇi śā́ntaṃ no astu kṛtākṛtám | śā́ntaṃ bhūtáṃ ca bhávyam̐ ca sárvam evá śámas tu naḥ
Peaceful be the fore-signs; peaceful for us be what is done and what is left undone. Peaceful be the past and peaceful the future; yea, let all without exception be peace for us.
