Mantra 5
Sukta 14
यदि स्थ क्षेत्रियाणां यदि वा पुरुषेषिताः । यदि स्थ दस्युभ्यो जाता नश्यतेतः सदान्वाः
yádi stha kṣetríyāṇā́m yádi vā púruṣeṣitā́ḥ | yádi stha dásyubhyo jātā́ náśyatétaḥ sadā́nvāḥ ||
If ye be of the Kṣetriya brood, or if ye be impelled by man; if ye be born from the Dasyu—perish ye hence, O Sadānvas!
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (often transmitted under Atharvan/Angiras lineages for kṣetriya-removal hymns; specific r̥ṣi attribution depends on the Anukramaṇī).
Devata: Apotropaic address to the afflicting beings (kṣetriya; Sadānva-s) rather than a single high deity.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; common for Atharvanic healing/banishing verses)
