Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.16.7

AVŚ 4.16.7

शतेन पाशैर् अभि धेहि वरुणैनं मा ते मोच्य् अनृतवाङ् नृचक्षः । आस्तां जाल्म उदरं श्रंशयित्वा कोश इवाबन्धः परिकृत्यमानः ॥७॥

śatena pāśair abhi dhehi varuṇainaṃ mā te mocy anṛtavāṅ nṛcakṣaḥ | āstāṃ jālma udaraṃ śraṃśayitvā kośa ivābandhaḥ parikṛtyamānaḥ ||7||

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

With a hundred fetters, O Varuṇa, do thou bridle (abhi-dhā) him; let not the speaker of untruth escape thee, O men-watcher; let the villain sit letting his belly fall [apart], like a hoopless vessel, being cut round about.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
