6.112.1
mā́ jyeṣṭháṃ vadhīd ayám agna eṣā́m mūlabárhaṇāt pári pāhy enam |
sá grā́hyāḥ pā́śān ví cr̥ta prajānán túbhyaṃ devā́ ánu jānantu víśve ||1||
Let not this one, O Agni, slay the oldest of them; protect him from uprooting; do thou, foreknowing, unfasten the bonds of the seizure (grā́hi); let all the gods assent to thee.
6.112.2
ún muñca pā́śāṃs tvám agna eṣā́ṃ tráyas tribhír útsitā yébhir ā́san |
sá grā́hyāḥ pā́śān ví cr̥ta prajānán pitāputráu mātáraṃ muñca sárvān ||2||
Do thou, O Agni, loosen up the bonds of them, the three with which they three were tied up; do thou, foreknowing, unfasten the bonds of the seizure; free all—father, son, mother.
6.112.3
yébhiḥ pā́śaiḥ párivitto víbaddhó 'ṅgeaṅga ā́rpita útsitaś ca |
ví té mucyantaṃ vimúco hí sánti bhrūṇaghní pūṣan duritā́ni mr̥kṣva ||3||
With what bonds the overslaughed one is bound apart, applied and tied up on each limb—let them be released, for they are releasers; wipe off difficulties, O Pūshan, on the embryo-slayer.
