Library·Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka)·1·1.29
अभीवर्तेन मणिना येनेन्द्रो अभिववृधे । तेनास्मान् ब्रह्मणस् पते ऽभि राष्ट्राय वर्धय ॥१॥
abhīvartena maṇinā yenendro abhivavṛdhe | tenāsmān brahmaṇas pate 'bhi rāṣṭrāya vardhaya ||1||
With an over-rolling amulet (maṇí), wherewith Indra increased—therewith, O Brahmaṇaspati, make us increase unto royalty (rāṣṭrá).
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अभिवृत्य सपत्नान् अभि या नो अरातयः । अभि पृतन्यन्तं तिष्ठाभि यो नो दुरस्यति ॥२॥
abhivṛtya sapatnān abhi yā no arātayaḥ | abhi pṛtanyantaṃ tiṣṭhābhi yo no durasyati ||2||
Rolling over our rivals, over them that are niggards to us, do thou trample on him who fights—on whoever abuses (durasy-) us.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अभि त्वा देवः सविताभि षोमो अवीवृधत् । अभि त्वा विश्वा भूतान्य् अभीवर्तो यथाससि ॥३॥
abhi tvā devaḥ savitābhi ṣomo avīvṛdhat | abhi tvā viśvā bhūtāny abhīvarto yathāsasi ||3||
Thee hath god Savitar, hath Soma made to increase, thee have all existences (bhūtá) [made to increase], that thou mayest be over-rolling.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अभीवर्तो अभिभवः सपत्नक्षयणो मणिः । राष्ट्राय मह्यं बध्यतां सपत्नेभ्यः पराभुवे ॥४॥
abhīvarto abhibhavaḥ sapatnakṣayaṇo maṇiḥ | rāṣṭrāya mahyaṃ badhyatāṃ sapatnebhyaḥ parābhuve ||4||
The over-rolling, overcoming, rival-destroying amulet be bound upon me unto royalty, unto the perishing (parābhū́) of rivals.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
उद् असौ सूर्यो अगाद् उद् इदं मामकं वचः । यथाहं शत्रुहो ऽसान्य् असपत्नः सपत्नहा ॥५॥
ud asau sūryo agād ud idaṃ māmakaṃ vacaḥ | yathāhaṃ śatruho 'sāny asapatnaḥ sapatnahā ||5||
Up hath gone yon sun, up this spell (vácas) of mine, that I may be slayer of foes, without rivals, rival-slayer.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
सपत्नक्षयणो वृषाभिरष्ट्रो विषासहिः । यथाहम् एषां वीराणां विराजानि जनस्य च ॥६॥
sapatnakṣayaṇo vṛṣābhiraṣṭro viṣāsahiḥ | yathāham eṣāṃ vīrāṇāṃ virājāni janasya ca ||6||
A rival-destroying bull, conquering royalty, overpowering—that I may bear rule over these heroes and the people (jána).
