Atharvaveda Samhita — Kanda 7 — Chapter 34

AV 7 34.1

अग्ने जातान् प्र णुदा मे सपत्नान् प्रत्य् अजातान् जातवेदो नुदस्व । अधस्पदं कृणुष्व ये पृतन्यवो ऽनागसस् ते वयम् अदितये स्याम

agne jātān pra ṇudā me sapatnān praty ajātān jātavedo nudasva | adhaspadaṃ kṛṇuṣva ye pṛtanyavo 'nāgasas te vayam aditaye syāma

O Agni, thrust away from me my born rivals; thrust back the unborn ones, O Jātavedas. Put underfoot those who would fight (us); may we be guiltless before Aditi.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

Agni, drive off my rivals born and living, repel those yet unborn, O Jātavedas. Cast down beneath my feet mine adversaries. In Aditi's regard may we be sinless.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1895–96)
