11.2.7.26

prayājairvai devāḥ svargaṃ lokamāyaṃstānasurā anvājigāṃsaṃstānanuyājaiḥ pratyauhaṃstadyadanuyājā ijyante pāpmānameva taddviṣantam bhrātṛvyaṃ yajamānaḥ pratyūhati

By the fore-offerings, indeed, the gods reached the world of heaven. The Asuras tried to get thither after them; and by the after-offerings they (the gods) drove them back: thus, when the after-offerings are performed, the Sacrificer drives back his wicked, spiteful enemy.

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
