Atharva Veda 19.16
A prayer for security from danger
GriffithEnglish
Peace hath been given us from the east, and from the west security. Savitar guard me from the south, and from the north the Lord of Might.
May the Ādityas from the sky protect me, Agni from the earth. May Indra-Agni guard me from the eastward, on all sides may the Asvins give me shelter. May Jātavedas guard, sidelong, our cattle. Our shield on all sides be the World-Creators!
