4.36.1
तान्त्सत्यौजाः प्र दहत्वग्निर्वैश्वानरो वृषा ।
यो नो दुरस्याद्दिप्साच्चाथो यो नो अरातियात् ॥ ४.३६.१ ॥
May Satyaujas Agni Vaiśvānara, mighty as a bull, burn them up, those who harm us, the hostile one, the one who seeks to injure us, and whoever is our enemy.
4.36.2
यो नो दिप्साददिप्सतो दिप्सतो यश्च दिप्सति ।
वैश्वानरस्य दंष्ट्रयोरग्नेरपि दधामि तम् ॥ ४.३६.२ ॥
Whoever harms us, whoever harms those who do not harm, whoever harms the harmer, and whoever seeks to harm, him I place between the fangs of Vaiśvānara Agni.
4.36.3
य आगरे मृगयन्ते प्रतिक्रोशेऽमावास्ये ।
क्रव्यादो अन्यान् दिप्सतः सर्वांस्तान्त्सहसा सहे ॥ ४.३६.३ ॥
Those who hunt in the dwelling, in the echo, on the new-moon night, the flesh-eating demons who seek to harm others, all of them I overpower by force.
4.36.4
सहे पिशाचान्त्सहसैषां द्रविणं ददे ।
सर्वान् दुरस्यतो हन्मि सं म आकूतिर्ऋध्यताम् ॥ ४.३६.४ ॥
I overpower the flesh-eating demons by force and take their wealth. I slay all hostile enemies; may my resolve prosper.
4.36.5
ये देवास्तेन हासन्ते सूर्येण मिमते जवम् ।
नदीषु पर्वतेषु ये सं तैः पशुभिर्विदे ॥ ४.३६.५ ॥
The gods who sit with that Sun, who measure out speed by the Sun, and who are in the rivers and on the mountains: with them I obtain cattle.
4.36.6
तपनो अस्मि पिशाचानां व्याघ्रो गोमतामिव ।
श्वानः सिंहमिव दृष्ट्वा ते न विन्दन्ते न्यञ्चनम् ॥ ४.३६.६ ॥
I am the burner of the flesh-eating demons, a tiger to those who own cattle. As dogs seeing a lion find no hiding place, so they find no refuge.
4.36.7
न पिशाचैः सं शक्नोमि न स्तेनैः न वनर्गुभिः ।
पिशाचास्तस्मान् नश्यन्ति यमहं ग्राममाविशे ॥ ४.३६.७ ॥
I cannot contend with demons, nor with thieves, nor with the forest-dwelling harmers. Demons perish from that village which I enter.
4.36.8
यं ग्राममाविशत इदमुग्रं सहो मम ।
पिशाचास्तस्मान् नश्यन्ति न पापमुप जानते ॥ ४.३६.८ ॥
From that village which this fierce might of mine enters, demons perish. They do not recognise evil as near.
4.36.9
ये मा क्रोधयन्ति लपिता हस्तिनं मशका इव ।
तान् अहं मन्ये दुर्हितान् जने अल्पशयून् इव ॥ ४.३६.९ ॥
Those who provoke me, as gnats provoke an elephant, I consider among people to be ill-disposed and little sleepers.
4.36.10
अभि तं निर्ऋतिर्धत्तामश्वमिव अश्वाभिधान्या ।
मल्वो यो मह्यं क्रुध्यति स उ पाशान् न मुच्यते ॥ ४.३६.१० ॥
Let Nirṛti seize him as a horse-rope seizes a horse. That wretch who is angry with me is not freed from the nooses.
