vi. 3-

3. Let the divine Açvins, lords of beauty, protect us; let dawn-and-night also make broad for us; O child of the waters, in case of any detriment to [our] household; O divine Tvashṭar, increase [us] in order to our completeness.

1. Tvashṭar [protect] my address (vácas) to the gods, [also] Parjanya, Brahmaṇaspati; with sons, with brothers, let Aditi now protect our hard to surpass [and] saving power.

2. Let Aṅça, Bhaga, Varuṇa, Mitra, Aryaman, Aditi—let the Maruts protect [us]; may the hatred of that injurer pass away; repel the foe from near by.
