avairahatyā́yedám ā́ papatyāt suvīrátāyā idám ā́ sasadyāt |
párāṅ evá párā vada párācīm ánu saṃvátam |
yáthā yamásya tvā gr̥hé 'rasáṃ praticā́kaśān ābhū́kaṃ praticā́kaśān ||3||

May it fly hither in order to non-destruction of heroes; may it settle (ā-sad) here in order to abundance of heroes; turned away, do thou speak away, toward a distant stretch (? saṁvát); so that in Yama's house they may look upon thee [as] sapless, may look upon [thee as] empty (ābhū́ka).

William Dwight Whitney 1905, Atharva-Veda Saṃhitā (HOS 7–8)
