Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 8.5.8

AVŚ 8.5.8

स्राक्त्येन मणिना ऋषिणेव मनीषिणा । अजैषं सर्वाः पृतना वि मृधो हन्मि रक्षसः ॥८॥

srāktyena maṇinā ṛṣiṇeva manīṣiṇā | ajaiṣaṃ sarvāḥ pṛtanā vi mṛdho hanmi rakṣasaḥ ||8||

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

By the amulet of sraktyá, as by a seer (ṛ́ṣi) full of wisdom, I have conquered all fighters; I smite away the scorners, the demoniacs.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
