Sukta 32

प्र ते॑ शृणामि॒ शृङ्गे॒ याभ्यां॑ वितुदा॒यसि॑ । भि॒नाद्मि॑ ते कु॒षुम्भं॒ यस्ते॑ विष॒धानः॑

prá te śṛṇāmi śṛṅgé yā́bhyāṃ vitudā́yasi | bhinā́dmi te kuṣúmbhaṃ yás te viṣadhā́naḥ ||

Forth—thy horns I shatter, wherewith thou dost pierce and wound. I cleave for thee the kushumbha, which is thy poison-receptacle.

Ta bẻ gãy những chiếc sừng của ngươi, là thứ ngươi dùng để đâm và làm thương. Ta chẻ cho ngươi kuṣumbha, vật chứa độc của ngươi.
