Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā (Śukla Yajurveda, as given on Wikisource) 16.15

VS 16.15

मा नो महान्तम् उत मा नो ऽ अर्भकं मा न ऽ उक्षन्तम् उत मा न ऽ उक्षितम् । मा नो वधीः पितरं मोत मातरं मा नः प्रियास् तन्वो रुद्र रीरिषः ॥

mā no mahāntam uta mā no ' arbhakaṃ mā na ' ukṣantam uta mā na ' ukṣitam | mā no vadhīḥ pitaraṃ mota mātaraṃ mā naḥ priyās tanvo rudra rīriṣaḥ ||

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

O Rudra, harm not either great or small of us, harm not the growing boy, harm not the full-grown man. Slay not a sire among us, slay no mother here, and to our own dear bodies, Rudra, do not harm.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 1.114.7; the wording of this text may differ in places.
