Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 7.5.1

AVŚ 7.5.1

यज्ञेन यज्ञम् अयजन्त देवास् तानि धर्माणि प्रथमान्य् आसन् । ते ह नाकं महिमानः सचन्त यत्र पूर्वे साध्याः सन्ति देवाः ॥१॥

yajñena yajñam ayajanta devās tāni dharmāṇi prathamāny āsan | te ha nākaṃ mahimānaḥ sacanta yatra pūrve sādhyāḥ santi devāḥ ||1||

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

By the sacrifice the gods sacrificed to the sacrifice; those were the first ordinances (dhárman); those greatnesses attach themselves to (sac) the firmament, where are the ancient (pū́rva) perfectible (sādhyá) gods.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
