Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.16.6

AVŚ 4.16.6

ये ते पाशा वरुण सप्तसप्त त्रेधा तिष्ठन्ति विषिता रुषन्तः । छिनन्तु सर्वे अनृतं वदन्तं यः सत्यवाद्य् अति तं सृजन्तु ॥६॥

ye te pāśā varuṇa saptasapta tredhā tiṣṭhanti viṣitā ruṣantaḥ | chinantu sarve anṛtaṃ vadantaṃ yaḥ satyavādy ati taṃ sṛjantu ||6||

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

What fetters (pā́ça) of thine, O Varuṇa, seven by seven, stand triply relaxed (vi-si), shining—let them all bind him that speaks untruth; whoso is truth-speaking, let them let him go.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
