Taking (grah) the name of Indra, the seers gave the jan̄giḍá, which the gods in the beginning made a remedy, spoiler of the víṣkandha.

English · William Dwight Whitney

Let that jan̄giḍá defend us, as a protector of riches his riches; which ⌊jan̄giḍá⌋ the gods, the Brahmans, made a protector round about, slayer of niggards.

English · William Dwight Whitney

The enemy of terrible aspect (-cákṣús), the evil-doer that has come—them do thou, O thousand-eyed one, make to vanish by thy watchfulness (? pratībodhá); thou art jan̄giḍá that protects round about.

4
English · William Dwight Whitney

Me from the sky, me from the earth, from the atmosphere, me from the plants, me from what is, and me from what is to be—from every direction let the jan̄giḍá protect us about.

5
English · William Dwight Whitney

What [witchcraft-]workers are made by the gods, and also what from mortals—all those may the all-healing jan̄giḍá make sapless.
