yát kíṃ cāsáu mánasā yác ca vācā́ yajñáir juhóti havíṣā yájuṣā |
tán mr̥tyúnā nírr̥tiḥ saṃvidānā́ purā́ satyā́d ā́hutiṃ hantv asya ||1||

Whatsoever he yonder offers with mind, and what with voice, with sacrifices, with oblation, with sacred formula (yájus), that let perdition, in concord with death, smite, his offering, before it comes true.

7.70.2

yātudhā́nā nírr̥tir ā́d u rákṣas té asya ghnantv ánr̥tena satyám |
índreṣitā devā́ ā́jam asya mathnantu mā́ tát sáṃ pādi yád asáu juhóti ||2||

The sorcerers, perdition, also the demon—let them smite his truth with untruth; let the gods, sent by Indra, disturb (math) his sacrificial butter; let not that meet with success which he yonder offers.

Turned away [are] both thine arms; I fasten up thy mouth; with the fury of divine Agni—therewith have I smitten thine oblation.
