Atharvaveda Samhita — Kanda 7 — Chapter 92

AV 7 92.1

स सुत्रामा स्ववाꣳ इन्द्रो अस्मद् आराच् चिद् द्वेषः सनुतर् युयोतु । तस्य वयं सुमतौ यज्ञियस्यापि भद्रे सौमनसे स्याम

sa sutrāmā svavāṁ indro asmad ārāc cid dveṣaḥ sanutar yuyotu | tasya vayaṃ sumatau yajñiyasyāpi bhadre saumanase syāma

May that Indra, the good protector, possessed of his own (help), keep hatred far away from us, off in the distance. May we be in the good favour of him who is worthy of sacrifice, and in his kindly benevolence.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

May this rich Indra as our good protector keep even far away the men who hate us. May we enjoy his favour, his the holy: may we enjoy his blessed loving-kindness.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1895–96)
