Sukta 9.114
सप्त दिशो नानासूर्याः सप्त होतार ऋत्विजः । देवा आदित्या ये सप्त तेभिः सोमाभि रक्ष न इन्द्रायेन्दो परि स्रव ॥
saptá díśo nā́nā-sūryāḥ saptá hótāra ṛtvíjaḥ | devā́ ādityā́ yé saptá tébhiḥ somā́bhi rakṣa na indrā́yendo pári srava ||
Seven directions with their many suns, seven hotṛ-priests and seasonal sacrificers; the seven Ādityas—by them, O Soma, guard us on every side. O Indra’s Soma, flow around and into us.
