Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 12.4.36

AVŚ 12.4.36

सर्वान् कामान् यमराज्ये वशा प्रददुषे दुहे । अथाहुर् नारकं लोकं निरुन्धानस्य याचिताम् ॥३६॥

sarvān kāmān yamarājye vaśā pradaduṣe duhe | athāhur nārakaṃ lokaṃ nirundhānasya yācitām ||36||

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

All his desires, in Yama's realm, does the cow ⌊ vaçā́ ⌋ yield to him who has presented her; likewise they call hell the world of him who keeps her back when asked for.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
