8.1.16

mā́ tvā jambháḥ sáṃhanur mā́ támo vidan mā́ jihvā́ barhís pramayúḥ kathā́ syāḥ |
út tvādityā́ vásavo bharantū́d indrāgnī́ svastáye ||16||

Let not the jaw-snapping (?) grinder (jambhá), let not the darkness find thee, let not the tongue-wrencher (?); how shouldst thou be one that perisheth? up let the Ādityas, the Vasus bear thee, up let Indra-and-Agni, for thy welfare.

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