Yama, death, the evil-killer, the destroyer, the brown Çarva, the blue-locked archer, the god-folk that have arisen with their army—let them avoid our heroes.

With mind, with libations, with flame (? háras), with ghee, unto the archer Çarva and unto king Bhava—to them (pl.), who are deserving of homage, I pay homage; let them conduct those of evil poison away from us.

Save ye us from them of evil poison, from the deadly weapon, O all ye gods, ye all-possessing Maruts; Agni-and-Soma, Varuṇa of purified skill; may we be in the favor of Vāta-and-Parjanya.
