Atharva Veda 2.14.2: Kanda 2, Anuvaka 2, Sukta 14, Mantra 2
Sukta 14
निर्वो॑ गो॒ष्ठाद॑जामसि॒ निरक्षा॒न्निरु॑पान॒सात्। निर्वो॑ मगुन्द्या दुहितरो गृ॒हेभ्य॑श्चातयामहे
nír vo goṣṭhā́d ajāmasi nír ákṣān nír upānasā́t | nír vo magundyā́ duhitáro gṛhébhyaś cātayāmahe ||
Forth from the cattle-stall we drive you; forth from the axle, forth from the wain. Forth from our houses we chase you, ye daughters of Magundī.
យើងខ្ញុំបណ្ដាលឱ្យអ្នកទាំងឡាយចេញពីក្រុមគោ។ យើងខ្ញុំបណ្ដាលឱ្យចេញពីអ័ក្ស និងចេញពីរទេះ។ យើងខ្ញុំបណ្ដាលឱ្យអ្នកទាំងឡាយចេញពីផ្ទះរបស់យើង ហៃពួកកូនស្រីរបស់មគុន្ទី។
Rishi: Atharvanic/Angiras-type tradition (specific r̥ṣi attribution depends on anukramaṇī for AVŚ 2.14).
Devata: Apotropaic expulsion; the mantra targets Magundī and her ‘daughters’ (hostile beings) rather than invoking a beneficent deity.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; to be confirmed against pada-count in the edition used).
Primary: raudra
Secondary: vira
