Atharva Veda 4.24.2: Kanda 4, Anuvaka 3, Sukta 24, Mantra 2
Sukta 24
य उ॒ग्रीणा॑मु॒ग्रबा॑हुर्य॒युर्यो दा॑न॒वानां॒ बल॑मारु॒रोज॑ । येन॑ जि॒ताः सिन्ध॑वो॒ येन॒ गावः॒ स नो॑ मुञ्च॒त्वंह॑सः
yá ugrīṇā́m ugrábāhur yayúr yó dānavā́nāṃ bálam ārurója | yéna jitā́ḥ síndhavo yéna gā́vaḥ sá no muñcatv áṃhásaḥ ||
He who, strong-armed, went forth against the fierce; who shattered the might of the Dānavas; by whom the rivers were won, by whom the kine—let him release us from affliction and from sin.
य उग्रीणामुग्रबाहुर्ययुर्यो दानवानां बलमारुरोज। येन जिताः सिन्धवो येन गावः स नो मुञ्चत्वंहसः।
