इ॒मे शंसं॑ वनुष्य॒तो नि पा॑न्ति गु॒रु द्वेषो॒ अर॑रुषे दधन्ति ॥

When men strike together in fury, among the abundant herbs and among the settlements, then, O sons of Rudra, O Maruts, be our protectors; be noble heroes in battles.
7.56.23
भूरि॑ चक्र मरुतः॒ पित्र्या॑णि उ॒क्थानि॒ या वः॑ श॒स्यन्ते॑ पु॒रा चि॑त् ।
म॒रुद्भि॑रु॒ग्रः पृत॑नासु॒ साळ्हा॑ म॒रुद्भि॒रित्सनि॑ता॒ वाज॒मर्वा॑ ॥
O Maruts, you have performed many ancestral deeds, which were recited for you even before. With the Maruts the fierce hero is victorious in battles; with the Maruts indeed the strong horse, giver of food, becomes mighty.
7.56.24
अ॒स्मे वी॒रो म॑रुतः शु॒ष्म्य॑स्तु॒ जना॑नां॒ यो असु॑रो विध॒र्ता ।
अ॒पो येन॑ सुक्षि॒तये॒ तरे॒माध॒ स्वमोको॑ अ॒भि वः॑ स्याम ॥
For us, O Maruts, may there be strength as a hero, the lord among peoples, the sustainer. By him may we cross the waters for good dwelling; then may our home be toward you, and may we be yours.

May Indra, Varuṇa, Mitra, and Agni, and the waters, herbs, and trees, favor us. May we dwell in the shelter of the Maruts' lap. May you always protect us with blessings.
