Against evil

Let me go, O evil (pāpmán) being in control, mayest thou be gracious to us; set me uninjured in the world of the excellent, O evil.

Thou who, O evil, dost not leave us, thee here do we leave; along at the turning apart of the ways, let evil go after another.

English · William Dwight Whitney

Elsewhere than [with] us let the thousand-eyed immortal one make its home; whomsoever we may hate, him let it come upon (ṛch); and whom we hate, just him do thou smite.
