O Viśvedevas, all-gods assembled! We call upon you in your collective might. You are the divine assembly, the gathering of all the deities in heaven. Each of you possesseth great power; together, your strength is immeasurable.

We invoke you now for protection. There are threats upon every side. Enemies gather at our borders. Demons lurk in the darkness, seeking to harm us. Sickness and misfortune threaten our families. We cannot stand alone against these forces. We need your help.

So we beseech you—all of you together—to come to our aid. Let your combined strength be as a shield around us. Let your collective vigilance watch over us day and night. Let your united will stand against all that would bring us harm.

Mitra, watch over the day. Varuṇa, guard us in the night. Indra, grant us courage and strength. Agni, purify us with thy cleansing flame. Vāyu, carry our prayers to the heavens. Sūrya, shine thy light upon our path. Soma, fill us with divine intoxication and joy.

All of you—from the greatest deities to the lesser ones—we call upon you. There is strength in unity, in the gathering of many voices raised as one. Your unity is our model. Your collective power is our hope.

We have made our offerings. We have poured the libation. We have chanted the sacred hymns. Now we ask for your protection. Guard us from harm. Guide us along the righteous path. Let your blessing rest upon us and upon all that we hold dear.

Accept our worship, O assembly of all-gods! Let us feel your presence. Let us know that we are not abandoned or forgotten. Stand with us, protect us, and grant us peace.
