Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 5.2.9

AVŚ 5.2.9

एवा महान् बृहद्दिवो अथर्वावोचत् स्वां तन्वम् इन्द्रम् एव । स्वसारौ मातरिभ्वरी अरिप्रे हिन्वन्ति चैने शवसा वर्धयन्ति च ॥९॥

evā mahān bṛhaddivo atharvāvocat svāṃ tanvam indram eva | svasārau mātaribhvarī aripre hinvanti caine śavasā vardhayanti ca ||9||

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

So hath the great Brihaddiva Atharvan spoken of his own self (tanū́) [as of] Indra; the two blameless, mother-growing sisters—[men] both impel them with might (çávas) and increase them.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
