Sukta 31
सह॑स्व मन्यो अ॒भिमा॑तिम॒स्मै रु॒जन् मृ॒णन् प्र॑मृ॒णन् प्रेहि॒ शत्रू॑न्। उ॒ग्रं ते॒ पाजो॑ न॒न्वा रु॑रुध्रे व॒शी वशं॑ नयासा एकज॒ त्वम्
sáhasva manyo abhímatim asmái rújan mṛṇán pramṛṇán prá éhi śátrūn | ugráṃ te pájo nanvā́ rúrudhre vaśī́ váśaṃ nayāse ékait tvám
Prevail, O Manyu, against his hostile purpose—breaking, crushing, crushing utterly—go forth upon the foes. Fierce is thy might: verily thou hast hemmed them in; masterful, thou leadest them into subjection—thou alone indeed.
Wahai Manyu, kalahkanlah niat permusuhan terhadap orang ini—pecahkan, remukkan, luluhlantakkan—majulah terhadap para musuh. Garanglah kekuatanmu; sesungguhnya engkau telah mengepung mereka; sebagai yang berkuasa engkau menuntun mereka ke dalam ketundukan—engkau seorang diri, benar adanya.
