RV 10.161.2

यदि क्षितायुर् यदि वा परेतो यदि मृत्योर् अन्तिकं नीत एव । तम् आ हरामि निरृतेर् उपस्थाद् अस्पार्षम् एनं शतशारदाय ॥

yadi kṣitāyur yadi vā pareto yadi mṛtyor antikaṃ nīta eva | tam ā harāmi nirṛter upasthād aspārṣam enaṃ śataśāradāya ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Be his days ended, be he now departed, be he brought very near to death already, Out of Destruction's lap again I bring him, save him for life to last a hundred autumns.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
