Atharvaveda 5.29

Joined in front, carry thou, O Jātavedas; know this, O Agni, as [it is] being done; thou art a physician (bhiṣáj), a maker of remedy (bheṣajá); by thee may we gain cow, horse, man (púruṣa).

So, O Agni, Jātavedas, do thou do this, in concord with all the gods: he who hath played [against] us, whosoever hath devoured (ghas) us, that this enclosure of his may fall.

That this enclosure of his may fall, so, O Agni, Jātavedas, do thou do that, in concord with all the gods.

Pierce thou into his eyes, pierce into his heart, bore into his tongue, destroy (pra-mṛ) his teeth; whatsoever piçācá hath devoured of him, that one, O Agni, youngest [god], do thou crush back.

What of him is taken [or] taken apart, what is borne away, whatsoever of himself is devoured by the piçācás, that, O Agni, do thou, knowing, bring again; into his body we send flesh [and] spirit (ásu).

In raw, in well-cooked, in mixed (? çabála), in ripe, what piçācá hath injured (dambh) me in the partaking—that let the piçācás atone for (? vi-yātay) with self [and] progeny; be this man free from disease.

In milk (kṣīrá), in stirabout whoever hath injured me, who in grain growing uncultivated—in the partaking [thereof]—that let the piçācás etc. etc.

In the drinking of waters whatever flesh-eater hath injured me lying (çī) in the lair (çáyana) of the familiar demons (yātú)—that let the piçācás etc. etc.

By day, by night, whatever flesh-eater hath injured me lying in the lair of the familiar demons—that let the piçācás etc. etc.

The flesh-eating, bloody (rudhirá), mind-slaying piçācá do thou slay, O Agni, Jātavedas; let the vigorous Indra slay him with the thunderbolt; let bold Soma cut [off] his head.

From of old, O Agni, thou killest the sorcerers; the demons have not conquered thee in fights; burn up the flesh-eaters together with their dupes (?); let them not be freed from thy heavenly missile.

Bring together, O Jātavedas, what is taken, what borne away; let his members (gā́tra) increase; let this man fill up like a soma-stalk.

Like a stalk of soma, O Jātavedas, let this man fill up; make him, O Agni, exuberant, sacrificial (médhya), free from yákṣma; let him live.

These, O Agni, are thy piçācá-grinding pieces of fuel; them do thou enjoy, and accept them, O Jātavedas.

The pieces of fuel of tārṣṭāghá, O Agni, do thou accept with flame (arcís); let the flesh-eater who wants to take this man's flesh (māṅsá) quit his form.
