The varaṇá, this divine forest-tree, shall ward off (vāray-); the yákṣma that has entered into this man—that have the gods warded off.

For relief from yákṣma
The varaṇá, this divine forest-tree, shall ward off (vāray-); the yákṣma that has entered into this man—that have the gods warded off.
With the word (vácas) of Indra, of Mitra, and of Varuṇa, with the voice (vā́c) of all the gods, do we ward off thy yákṣma.
As Vritra stopped (stambh) these waters [when] going in all directions, so, by means of Agni Vāiçvānara, do I ward off thy yákṣma.
