AVŚ 3.19.4

तीक्ष्णीयांसः परशोर् अग्नेस् तीक्ष्णतरा उत । इन्द्रस्य वज्रात् तीक्ष्णीयांसो येषाम् अस्मि पुरोहितः ॥४॥

tīkṣṇīyāṃsaḥ paraśor agnes tīkṣṇatarā uta | indrasya vajrāt tīkṣṇīyāṃso yeṣām asmi purohitaḥ ||4||

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

Sharper than an ax, also sharper than fire, sharper than Indra's thunderbolt—[they] of whom I am the household priest.
