Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.76.4

AVŚ 6.76.4

नैनं घ्नन्ति पर्यायिणो न सन्नां अव गछति । अग्नेर् यः क्षत्रियो विद्वान् नाम गृह्नाति आयुषे ॥४॥

nainaṃ ghnanti paryāyiṇo na sannāṃ ava gachati | agner yaḥ kṣatriyo vidvān nāma gṛhnāti āyuṣe ||4||

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

They that go about (paryāyín) do not slay him, he goes not down to the dead (? sanná)—the kṣatríya who, knowing, takes the name of Agni unto length of life.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
