Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 19.17.4

váruṇo mā́dityáir étasyā́ diśáḥ pā́tu tásmin kráme tásmiñ chraye tā́m púraṃ práimi | sá mā rakṣatu sá mā gopāyatu tásmā ātmā́naṃ pári dade svā́hā

May Varuṇa, with the Ādityas, guard me from this quarter. In that I step; in that I take refuge; unto that stronghold I go forth. May he protect me; may he watch over me: to him I wholly commit my very self—svāhā.

Niecz Waruna wraz z Aditjami strzeże mnie od tej strony świata. W tym kroczę; w tym szukam schronienia; do tej twierdzy wyruszam. Niech mnie chroni; niech nade mną czuwa: jemu całkowicie powierzam moją duszę - swaha.
