Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.54.1

AVŚ 6.54.1

इदं तद् युज उत्तरम् इन्द्रं शुम्भाम्य् अष्टये । अस्य क्षत्रं श्रियं महीं वृष्टिर् इव वर्धया तृणम् ॥१॥

idaṃ tad yuja uttaram indraṃ śumbhāmy aṣṭaye | asya kṣatraṃ śriyaṃ mahīṃ vṛṣṭir iva vardhayā tṛṇam ||1||

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

Now do I adorn this man as superior to his fellow, for attainment of Indra; do thou increase his authority, his great fortune, as the rain the grass.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
