7.104.1
इन्द्रा॑सोमा॒ तप॑तं॒ रक्ष॑ उ॒ब्जतं॒ न्य॑र्पयतं वृषणा तमो॒वृधः॑ ।
परा॑ शृणीतम॒चितो॒ न्यो॑षतं ह॒तं नु॒देथां॒ नि शि॑शीतम॒त्रिणः॑ ॥
O Indra and Soma, burn the demon, crush him, cast him down; O mighty ones, throw down the darkness-increasers. Drive away the unthinking, cast them down, slay them, push them back; sharpen yourselves and destroy the flesh-eating demons.
7.104.2
इन्द्रा॑सोमा॒ सम॒घशं॑सम॒भ्य॑घं तपु॑र्ययस्तु च॒रुर॑ग्नि॒वाँ इ॑व ।
ब्र॒ह्म॒द्विषे॑ क्र॒व्यादे॑ घो॒रच॑क्षसे॒ द्वेषो॑ धत्तमनवा॒यं कि॑मी॒दिने॑ ॥
O Indra and Soma, may that burning heat come upon the evil-speaker and the evil, like a vessel of fire. Place your hatred upon the enemy of the sacred word, the flesh-eater, and the one of terrible glance, unchecked and unhindered.
7.104.3
इन्द्रा॑सोमा दु॒ष्कृतो॑ व॒व्रे अ॒न्तर॑नारम्भ॒णे तम॑सि॒ प्र वि॑ध्यतम् ।
यथा॒ नातः॒ पुन॒रेक॑श्च॒नोदय॒त्तद्वा॑मस्तु॒ सह॑से मन्यु॒मच्छवः॑ ॥
O Indra and Soma, strike the evil-doers within the bottomless pit, within the darkness, so that not one of them rises again. May your wrathful strength be for power.
7.104.4
इन्द्रा॑सोमा व॒र्तय॑तं दि॒वो व॒धं सं पृ॑थि॒व्या अ॒घशं॑साय॒ तर्ह॑णम् ।
उत्त॑क्षतं स्व॒र्यं॑ पर्व॑तेभ्यो॒ येन॒ रक्षो॑ वावृधा॒नं नि॒जूर्व॑थः ॥
O Indra and Soma, turn the blow of the sky, bring together with the earth the cutting destruction for the evil-speaker. Raise up the heavenly light from the mountains, by which you two have cast down the demon who grew strong.
7.104.5
इन्द्रा॑सोमा व॒र्तय॑तं दि॒वस्परि॑ अग्नित॒प्तेभि॑र्यु॒वमश्म॑हन्मभिः ।
तपु॑र्वधेभिर॒जरे॑भिर॒त्रिणो॒ नि पर्शा॑ने विध्यतं॒ यन्तु॑ निस्व॒रम् ॥
O Indra and Soma, turn about from the sky. With your fire-tempered, stone-breaking, heated, undecaying weapons, strike the devourers in the back; let them go down roaring.
7.104.6
इन्द्रा॑सोमा॒ परि॑ वां भूतु वि॒श्वत॑ इ॒यं म॒तिः क॒क्ष्याश्वे॑व वा॒जिना॑ ।
यां वां॒ होत्रां॑ परिहि॒नोमि॑ मे॒धये॒मा ब्रह्मा॑णि नृ॒पती॑व जिन्वतम् ॥
O Indra and Soma, may this thought be around you everywhere, like the two strong horses of the seat. With the invocation I wind around you in my mind for you two, may you stir these prayers like two lords of men.
7.104.7
प्रति॑ स्मरेथां तु॒जय॑द्भि॒रेवै॑र्ह॒तं द्रु॒हो र॒क्षसो॑ भङ्गु॒राव॑तः ।
इन्द्रा॑सोमा दु॒ष्कृते॒ मा सु॒गं भू॒द्यो नः॑ क॒दा चि॑दभि॒दास॑ति द्रु॒हा ॥
Indra and Soma, may you two strike down with your missiles the treacherous demons, those who bend and break; may the path be not easy for the evil-doer, nor for whoever with malice assails us.
7.104.8
यो मा॒ पाके॑न॒ मन॑सा॒ चर॑न्तमभि॒चष्टे॒ अनृ॑तेभि॒र्वचो॑भिः ।
आप॑ इव का॒शिना॒ संगृ॑भीता॒ अस॑न्न॒स्त्वास॑त इन्द्र व॒क्ता ॥
May he who looks upon me as I wander, with a ripened mind and with untruthful words, be bound like water in the cup and cease to be; O Indra, may the speaker too be so.
7.104.9
ये पा॑कशं॒सं वि॒हर॑न्त॒ एवै॒र्ये वा॑ भ॒द्रं दू॒षय॑न्ति स्व॒धाभिः॑ ।
अह॑ये वा॒ तान्प्र॒ददा॑तु॒ सोम॒ आ वा॑ दधातु॒ निरृ॑तेरु॒पस्थे॑ ॥
Those who wander about in cursing with curse-speech, or who with their offerings defile the good: may Soma give them over to the serpent, or place them in the lap of Nirṛti.
7.104.10
यो नो॒ रसं॒ दिप्स॑ति पि॒त्वो अ॑ग्ने॒ यो अश्वा॑नां॒ यो गवां॒ यस्त॒नूना॑म् ।
रि॒पु स्ते॒न स्ते॑य॒कृद्द॒भ्रमे॑तु॒ नि ष ही॑यतां त॒न्वा॑ तना॑ च ॥
Whoever seeks to harm our juice, O Agni, whoever seeks the horses, the cows, the bodies — let the enemy, the thief, the thief-doer go down diminished; may he be reduced in body and in lineage.
7.104.11
प॒रः सो अ॑स्तु त॒न्वा॑ तना॑ च ति॒स्रः पृ॑थि॒वीर॒धो अ॑स्तु॒ विश्वाः॑ ।
प्रति॑ शुष्यतु॒ यशो॑ अस्य देवा॒ यो नो॒ दिवा॒ दिप्स॑ति॒ यश्च॒ नक्त॑म् ॥
May he be far off in body and in lineage, may he be beneath the three earths, beneath all; O gods, may the fame of him who seeks to harm us by day dry up, and of him who seeks it by night too.
7.104.12
सु॒वि॒ज्ञा॒नं चि॑कि॒तुषे॒ जना॑य॒ सच्चास॑च्च॒ वच॑सी पस्पृधाते ।
तयो॒र्यत्स॒त्यं य॑त॒रदृजी॑य॒स्तदित्सोमो॑ऽवति॒ हन्त्यास॑त् ॥
For the one who understands there is good knowledge; two words, being and non-being, contend with each other. Of those two, whichever is true, whichever is more straight, that Soma indeed protects, and strikes down the non-being.
7.104.13
न वा उ॒ सोमो॑ वृजि॒नं हि॑नोति॒ न क्ष॒त्रियं॑ मिथु॒या धा॒रय॑न्तम् ।
हन्ति॒ रक्षो॒ हन्त्यास॒द्वद॑न्तमु॒भाविन्द्र॑स्य॒ प्रसि॑तौ शयाते ॥
Soma does not send crooked deeds, nor the warrior who holds by deceit. He strikes the demon, and strikes the one who speaks from behind; both lie down under the protection of Indra.
7.104.14
यदि॑ वा॒हमनृ॑तदेव॒ आस॒ मोघं॑ वा दे॒वाँ अ॑प्यू॒हे अ॑ग्ने ।
किम॒स्मभ्यं॑ जातवेदो हृणीषे द्रोघ॒वाच॑स्ते निरृ॒थं स॑चन्ताम् ॥
If I was one whose god is false, or if I have called upon the gods in vain, O Agni, O Jātavedas, why are you angry with us? Let the speakers of deceit cling to your ruin.
7.104.15
अ॒द्या मु॑रीय॒ यदि॑ यातु॒धानो॒ अस्मि॒ यदि॒ वायु॑स्त॒तप॒ पूरु॑षस्य ।
अधा॒ स वी॒रैर्द॒शभि॒र्वि यू॑या॒ यो मा॒ मोघं॒ यातु॑धा॒नेत्याह॑ ॥
If I am a sorcerer, let me die today; or if the wind has scorched the life of a man. Then let him who calls me 'O sorcerer' in vain be torn apart tenfold, with his heroes.
7.104.16
यो माया॑तुं॒ यातु॑धा॒नेत्याह॒ यो वा॑ र॒क्षाः शुचि॑र॒स्मीत्याह॑ ।
इन्द्र॒स्तं ह॑न्तु मह॒ता व॒धेन॒ विश्व॑स्य ज॒न्तोर॑ध॒मस्प॑दीष्ट ॥
He who calls me 'O sorcerer,' and who says 'I am a demon, pure' — may Indra strike him with a great blow; may he fall lowest of all creatures.
7.104.17
प्र या जिगा॑ति ख॒र्गले॑व॒ नक्त॒मप॑ द्रु॒हा त॒न्वं॑ गूह॑माना ।
व॒व्राँ अ॑न॒न्ताँ अव॒ सा प॑दीष्ट॒ ग्रावा॑णो घ्नन्तु र॒क्षस॑ उप॒ब्दैः ॥
She who goes forth at night like an owl, concealing her body by deceit — let her fall down among the crooked and the boundless. May the stones strike the demons with pestles.
7.104.18
वि ति॑ष्ठध्वं मरुतो वि॒क्ष्वि॑च्छत॑ गृभा॒यत॑ र॒क्षसः॒ सं पि॑नष्टन ।
वयो॒ ये भू॒त्वी प॒तय॑न्ति न॒क्तभि॒र्ये वा॒ रिपो॑ दधि॒रे दे॒वे अ॑ध्व॒रे ॥
O Maruts, stand apart, search among the peoples, seize the demons, grind them together. Those who fly by night as birds, or who have set themselves as enemies against the god and the sacrifice — you punish them.
7.104.19
प्र व॑र्तय दि॒वो अश्मा॑नमिन्द्र॒ सोम॑शितं मघव॒न्त्सं शि॑शाधि ।
प्राक्ता॒दपा॑क्तादध॒रादुद॑क्ताद॒भि ज॑हि र॒क्षसः॒ पर्व॑तेन ॥
O Indra, hurl down from the sky the stone sharpened with soma; O bounteous one, sharpen it well. From the east, from the west, from below, and from the north, strike the demons with the mountain.
7.104.20
ए॒त उ॒ त्ये प॑तयन्ति॒ श्वया॑तव॒ इन्द्रं॑ दिप्सन्ति दि॒प्सवोऽदा॑भ्यम् ।
शिशी॑ते श॒क्रः पिशु॑नेभ्यो व॒धं नू॒नं सृ॑जद॒शनिं॑ यातु॒मद्भ्यः॑ ॥
These dog-seekers swoop down; they wish to harm Indra, who cannot be harmed. The mighty one lies in wait to strike the backbiters; now he hurls the thunderbolt against the sorcerers.
7.104.21
इन्द्रो॑ यातू॒नाम॑भवत्पराश॒रो ह॑वि॒र्मथी॑नाम॒भ्या॑विवा॑सताम् ।
अ॒भीदु॑ श॒क्रः प॑र॒शुर्यथा॒ वनं॒ पात्रे॑व भि॒न्दन्त्स॒त ए॑ति र॒क्षसः॑ ॥
Indra became the conqueror of sorcerers, the helper of the oblation-churners who seek to reach him. The mighty one advances like an axe felling a forest, cleaving the demons as one who breaks vessels.
7.104.22
उलू॑कयातुं शुशु॒लूक॑यातुं ज॒हि श्वया॑तुमु॒त कोक॑यातुम् ।
सु॒प॒र्णया॑तुमु॒त गृध्र॑यातुं दृ॒षदे॑व॒ प्र मृ॑ण॒ रक्ष॑ इन्द्र ॥
Strike down the owl-seeker and the screech-owl-seeker, the dog-seeker too and the kōka-seeker. Crush the bird-seeker and the vulture-seeker like a stone, and destroy them, O Indra.
7.104.23
मा नो॒ रक्षो॑ अ॒भि न॑ड्यातु॒माव॑ता॒मपो॑च्छतु मिथु॒ना या कि॑मी॒दिना॑ ।
पृ॒थि॒वी नः॒ पार्थि॑वात्पा॒त्वंह॑सो अ॒न्तरि॑क्षं दि॒व्यात्पा॑त्व॒स्मान् ॥
May the demon not come upon us, nor from the sorcerers. May the pair, the two kimīdins, be driven away. May the earth protect us from earthly sin; may the atmosphere protect us from celestial sin.
7.104.24
इन्द्र॑ ज॒हि पुमां॑सं यातु॒धान॑मु॒त स्त्रियं॑ मा॒यया॒ शाश॑दानाम् ।
विग्री॑वासो॒ मूर॑देवा ऋदन्तु॒ मा ते दृ॑श॒न्त्सूर्य॑मु॒च्चर॑न्तम् ॥
O Indra, strike the male sorcerer and the woman who torments by magic. May the vigrīvas and the mūradevas be crushed; may they not see the sun rising up.
7.104.25
प्रति॑ चक्ष्व॒ वि च॒क्ष्वेन्द्र॑श्च सोम जागृतम् ।
रक्षो॑भ्यो व॒धम॑स्यतम॒शनिं॑ यातु॒मद्भ्यः॑ ॥
Indra and Soma, both of you, stay awake; look here, look all around. Hurl destruction and the thunderbolt upon the rākṣasas and the yātumants.
