Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.135.1

AVŚ 6.135.1

यद् अश्नामि बलं कुर्व इत्थं वज्रम् आ ददे । स्कन्धान् अमुष्य शातयन् वृत्रस्येव शचीपतिः ॥१॥

yad aśnāmi balaṃ kurva itthaṃ vajram ā dade | skandhān amuṣya śātayan vṛtrasyeva śacīpatiḥ ||1||

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

When (yát) I eat, I make strength; thus do I take the thunderbolt, cutting to pieces (çat) the shoulders of him yonder, as Cachīpati of Vritra.
