Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 12.4.12

AVŚ 12.4.12

य आर्षेयेभ्यो याचद्भ्यो देवानां गां न दित्सति । आ स देवेषु वृश्चते ब्राह्मणानां च मन्यवे ॥१२॥

ya ārṣeyebhyo yācadbhyo devānāṃ gāṃ na ditsati | ā sa deveṣu vṛścate brāhmaṇānāṃ ca manyave ||12||

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

Whoever is not willing to give the cow (gó) of the gods to the sons of seers that ask for her, he falls under the wrath of the gods and the fury of the Brahmans.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
