Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 1.27.3

AVŚ 1.27.3

न बहवः सम् अशकन् नार्भका अभि दाधृषुः । वेणोर् अद्गा इवाभितो ऽसमृद्धा अघायवः ॥३॥

na bahavaḥ sam aśakan nārbhakā abhi dādhṛṣuḥ | veṇor adgā ivābhito 'samṛddhā aghāyavaḥ ||3||

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

The many have not been able together; the few have not ventured on [it]; like the sprouts (? ádga) of a bamboo (veṇú) round about, unsuccessful [are] the malignant ones.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
