Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.18.1

AVŚ 4.18.1

समं ज्योतिः सूर्येणाह्ना रात्री समावती । कृणोमि सत्यम् ऊतये ऽरसाः सन्तु कृत्वरीः ॥१॥

samaṃ jyotiḥ sūryeṇāhnā rātrī samāvatī | kṛṇomi satyam ūtaye 'rasāḥ santu kṛtvarīḥ ||1||

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

The same light with the sun—night possesses the same with the day; I make what is effective (satyá) for aid; sapless be the makers (f.) [of witchcraft].
