Atharva Veda 4.21.2: Kanda 4, Anuvaka 3, Sukta 21, Mantra 2
Sukta 21
इन्द्रो॒ यज्व॑ने गृण॒ते च॒ शिक्ष॑त॒ उपेद् द॑दाति॒ न स्वं मु॑षायति । भूयो॑भूयो र॒यिमिद॑स्य व॒र्धय॑न्नभि॒न्ने खि॒ल्ये नि द॑धाति देव॒युम्
índro yájvane gṛṇaté ca śíkṣata úpa íd dadāti ná sváṃ muṣāyati | bhū́yo-bhūyo rayím íd asya várdhayann abhínne khílye ní dadhāti devayúm
Indra to the sacrificer, and to the praising singer, gives guidance; he verily bestows, he steals not what is one’s own. Again and yet again increasing this man’s wealth, he sets the god-devoted one firm in unbroken pasture-land.
インドラは、祭主（ヤジュヴァン）と讃歌を歌う者とに教えを授ける。彼はまことに与え、他人のものを奪わない。幾度も幾度もこの人の財を増し、神に帰依する者を、裂け目なき牧地に堅く据える。
