Atharvaveda Samhita — Kanda 7 — Chapter 43

AV 7 43.1

शिवास् त एका अशिवास् त एकाः सर्वा बिभर्षि सुमनस्यमानः । तिस्रो वाचो निहिता अन्तर् अस्मिन् तासाम् एका वि पपातानु घोषम्

śivās ta ekā aśivās ta ekāḥ sarvā bibharṣi sumanasyamānaḥ | tisro vāco nihitā antar asmin tāsām ekā vi papātānu ghoṣam

Some (of them) of yours are kindly, some of yours unkindly; all of them you bear, being well disposed. Three voices are deposited within this one; one of them flew away following the sound.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

Some of thy words bode weal and some misfortune: thou scat- terest them all with friendly feeling. Deep within this three words are laid: among them one hath flown off even as the sound was uttered.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1895–96)
