prá sá mitra márto astu práyasvān yás ta āditya śíkṣati vraténa |
ná hanyate ná jīyate tuvóto naínam áṃho aśnoty ántito ná dūrā́t ||
2 Foremost be he who brings thee food, O Mitra, who strives to keep thy sacred Law, Āditya. He whom thou helpest ne’er is slain or conquered, on him, from near or far, falls no affliction.
