Mantra 2
Sukta 108
यो नः सुप्तान् जाग्रतो वाभिदासात् तिष्ठतो वा चरतो जातवेदः । वैश्वानरेण सयुजा सजोषास्तान् प्रतीचो निर्दह जातवेदः
yó naḥ suptā́n jā́grato vābhidā́sāt tíṣṭhato vā cárato jātávedas | vaiśvānareṇa sayújā sajóṣās tā́n pratī́co nírdaha jātávedas ||
Whoso would assail us, sleeping or waking, whether standing or moving, O Jātavedas—thou, in yoke and in one accord with Vaiśvānara, burn those back upon themselves, O Jātavedas.
जो आम्हाला झोपेत किंवा जागेपणी, उभे असताना किंवा चालताना आघात करतो—हे जातवेदस्—तू वैश्वानरासह युक्त, एकचित्ताने, त्यांना त्यांच्याचवर परतवून जाळून टाक, हे जातवेदस्.
