1Whoso by stealth or openly would harm us, a friend who knows us, or a stranger, Agni! May the strange she-fiend armed with teeth attack them: O Agni, theirs be neither home nor children! 2Whoso oppresseth us O Jātavedas, asleep or waking, standing still or moving. Accordant with Vaisvānara thy comrade, O Jātavedas, meet them and consume them.
