Mantra 11
Sukta 9
ब्रह्म प्रजापतिर्धाता लोका वेदाः सप्तऋषयोऽग्नयः । तैर्मे कृतं स्वस्त्ययनमिन्द्रो मे शर्म यच्छतु ब्रह्मा मे शर्म यच्छतु । विश्वे मे देवाः शर्म यच्छन्तु सर्वे मे देवाः शर्म यच्छन्तु
bráhma prajā́patir dhā́tā lokā́ vedā́ḥ saptárṣayo ’gnáyaḥ | táir me kṛtáṃ svastí-ayanam índro me śárma yacchatu bráhmā me śárma yacchatu | víśve me devā́ḥ śárma yacchantu sárve me devā́ḥ śárma yacchantu
Brahman, Prajāpati, Dhātṛ, the Worlds, the Vedas, the Seven Seers, the Fires—by these for me is wrought a path of welfare. Let Indra grant me shelter; let Brahmā grant me shelter. Let all the Gods grant me shelter; let all the Gods, every one, grant me shelter.
Brahman, Prajāpati, Dhātṛ, các thế giới, các Veda, bảy Ṛṣi, các ngọn lửa Agni—nhờ những điều ấy, con đường an lành được tác thành cho tôi. Xin Indra ban cho tôi chỗ nương tựa; xin Brahmā ban cho tôi chỗ nương tựa. Xin tất cả chư thần ban cho tôi chỗ nương tựa; xin tất cả chư thần—mọi vị—ban cho tôi chỗ nương tựa.
