Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 20.17.5

AVŚ 20.17.5

कृतं न श्वघ्नी वि चिनोति देवने संवर्गं यन् मघवा सूर्यं जयत् । न तत् ते अन्यो अनु वीर्यं शकन् न पुराणो मघवन् नोत नूतनः ॥५॥

kṛtaṃ na śvaghnī vi cinoti devane saṃvargaṃ yan maghavā sūryaṃ jayat | na tat te anyo anu vīryaṃ śakan na purāṇo maghavan nota nūtanaḥ ||5||

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

As in the game a gambler piles his winnings, so Maghavan, sweeping all together, gained the Sun This mighty deed of thine none other could achieve, none, Maghavan, before thee, none in recent time.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.43.5; the wording of this text may differ in places.
