Atharva Veda 20.59.3: Kanda 20, Anuvaka 6, Sukta 59, Mantra 3
Sukta 59
उदिन्न्व॑स्य रिच्य॒तेंऽशो धनं॒ न जि॒ग्युषः॑ । य इन्द्रो॒ हरि॑वा॒न्न द॑भन्ति॒ तं रिपो॒ दक्षं॑ दधाति सो॒मिनि॑
úd íd nv asya ricyáte’ṃśó dhánaṃ ná jigyúṣaḥ | yá índro hárivān ná dábhanti táṃ ripó dákṣaṃ dadhāti somíni
Forth, even now, is poured his portion, like wealth for him that hath conquered. Whom Indra, the tawny-steeded, none may foil—on him the foe bestows not mastery; rather, he establishes might in the soma-offerer.
उसका हिस्सा अभी निकल के आगे बढ़ रहा है, जैसे किसी जीतने वाले को दौलत मिलती है। इंद्र भले वाली सवारी पे सवार है, कोई उसको हरा नहीं सकता। दुश्मन उसपे कभी कब्जा नहीं कर पाता। वो ताकत सोम पिलाने वाले में डाल देता है।
