Atharva Veda 7.34.1: Kanda 7, Anuvaka 4, Sukta 34, Mantra 1
Sukta 34
शत्रुनाशनम्। अग्ने॑ जा॒तान् प्र णु॑दा मे स॒पत्ना॒न् प्रत्यजा॑तान् जातवेदो नुदस्व । अ॒ध॒स्प॒दं कृ॑णुष्व॒ ये पृ॑त॒न्यवोऽना॑गस॒स्ते व॒यमदि॑तये स्याम
ágne jātā́n prá nūda me sapatnā́n prátyajātān jātávedo nudásva | adháspadáṃ kr̥ṇuṣva yé pr̥tańyavo 'nā́gasas té vayám áditaye syāma
O Agni, drive forth my rivals that are born, and those born over against me drive away, O Jātavedas. Make for them a lower footing—those contentious folk; but we, being guiltless, would be for Aditi.
अग्नि से दुआ है कि वो मेरे दुश्मनों को भगा दे। जो लोग मेरे खिलाफ पैदा हुए हैं, उन्हे दूर कर दे। इन लड़ाकू लोगों को नीचे गिरा दे। हम किसी बुराई में नहीं फंसे, हम अदिति के लिए साफ रहते हैं।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (edition-dependent).
Devata: Agni (Jātavedas); Aditi as protective horizon.
Chandas: Triṣṭubh-like (edition-dependent).
Primary: vira
