RV 8.42.2

एवा वन्दस्व वरुणम् बृहन्तं नमस्या धीरम् अमृतस्य गोपाम् । स नः शर्म त्रिवरूथं वि यंसत् पातं नो द्यावापृथिवी उपस्थे ॥

evā vandasva varuṇam bṛhantaṃ namasyā dhīram amṛtasya gopām | sa naḥ śarma trivarūthaṃ vi yaṃsat pātaṃ no dyāvāpṛthivī upasthe ||

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

So humbly worship Varuna the Mighty revere the wise Guard of World Immortal. May he vouchsafe us triply-barred protection. O Earth and Heaven, within your lap preserve us.
