1.41.1

यं रक्ष॑न्ति॒ प्रचे॑तसो॒ वरु॑णो मि॒त्रो अ॑र्य॒मा ।
नू चि॒त्स द॑भ्यते॒ जनः॑ ॥

The person whom the all-knowing Varuṇa, Mitra and Aryamā protect is indeed never harmed.

यं बा॒हुते॑व॒ पिप्र॑ति॒ पान्ति॒ मर्त्यं॑ रि॒षः ।
अरि॑ष्टः॒ सर्व॑ एधते ॥

The mortal whom they cherish as if in their arms, they guard from harm; unharmed, he prospers in every way.

वि दु॒र्गा वि द्विषः॑ पु॒रो घ्नन्ति॒ राजा॑न एषाम् ।
नय॑न्ति दुरि॒ता ति॒रः ॥

Those kings shatter their fortresses and smash the strongholds before their enemies; they lead troubles across and away.

सु॒गः पन्था॑ अनृक्ष॒र आदि॑त्यास ऋ॒तं य॒ते ।
नात्रा॑वखा॒दो अ॑स्ति वः ॥

O Ādityas, the path is good and unobstructed for one who goes toward cosmic order; here there is no devourer for you.

यं य॒ज्ञं नय॑था नर॒ आदि॑त्या ऋ॒जुना॑ प॒था ।
प्र वः॒ स धी॒तये॑ नशत् ॥

O leading Ādityas, may the sacrifice you guide along the straight path reach insight for you without delay.

स रत्नं॒ मर्त्यो॒ वसु॒ विश्वं॑ तो॒कमु॒त त्मना॑ ।
अच्छा॑ गच्छ॒त्यस्तृ॑तः ॥

That mortal, by his own power, reaches treasure, all goods, and offspring, and comes to them unharmed.

क॒था रा॑धाम सखायः॒ स्तोमं॑ मि॒त्रस्या॑र्य॒म्णः ।
महि॒ प्सरो॒ वरु॑णस्य ॥

O friends, how may we win the praise of Mitra and Aryaman, and the great bounty of Varuṇa?

मा वो॒ घ्नन्तं॒ मा शप॑न्तं॒ प्रति॑ वोचे देव॒यन्त॑म् ।
सु॒म्नैरिद्व॒ आ वि॑वासे ॥

I speak no word against you when someone strikes or curses; I draw near to the god-loving man only with blessings.

च॒तुर॑श्चि॒द्दद॑मानाद्बिभी॒यादा निधा॑तोः ।
न दु॑रु॒क्ताय॑ स्पृहयेत् ॥

Let him fear even the four, and the giver, and the hoarded treasure; let him not desire harsh speech.
