Atharvaveda Samhita — Kanda 7 — Chapter 54

AV 7 54.1

ऋचं साम यजामहे याभ्यां कर्माणि कुर्वते । एते सदसि राजतो यज्ञं देवेषु यछतः

ṛcaṃ sāma yajāmahe yābhyāṃ karmāṇi kurvate | ete sadasi rājato yajñaṃ deveṣu yachataḥ

We worship the ṛc and the sāman, with which two men perform the rites. These two rule in the assembly; they extend the sacrifice to the gods.

AV 7 54.2

ऋचं साम यद् अप्राक्षं हविर् ओजो यजुर् बलम् । एष मा तस्मान् मा हिंसीद् वेदः पृष्टः शचीपते

ṛcaṃ sāma yad aprākṣaṃ havir ojo yajur balam | eṣa mā tasmān mā hiṃsīd vedaḥ pṛṣṭaḥ śacīpate

The ṛc, the sāman that I have asked for, the oblation, vigour, the yajus, strength — let this not harm me on that account: the Veda that has been asked of, O lord of might.
