Sukta 33
त्वं हि वि॑श्वतोमुख वि॒श्वतः॑ परि॒भूरसि॑ । अप॑ नः॒ शोशु॑चद॒घम्
tváṃ hí viśvatomukha viśvátaḥ paribhū́r ási | ápa naḥ śóśucat aghám
For thou, O All-faced, art the overmasterer on every side: scorch thou away from us the evil.
เพราะท่านแลคือ “ผู้มีพักตร์ทั่วทิศ” ผู้ครอบงำและแผ่ปกคลุมโดยรอบทุกด้าน—ขอจงเผาผลาญและขจัดความชั่วร้าย (agham) อันเร่าร้อนออกไปจากเราเถิด.
Rishi: Atharvanic/Angiras-type attribution (hymn-level tradition varies; treated as Atharvanic protective speech)
Devata: Viśvatomukha protective power (often interpreted as a guardian/deity-form of universal protection; sometimes assimilated to Agni/Indra-like overmastering force in exegesis)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (4 pādas; refrain-like cadence)
Primary: vira
Secondary: shanta
