Atharva Veda 1.27

amūḥ pāre pṛdākvas triṣaptā nirjarāyavaḥ tāsām jarāyubhir vayam akṣyāv api vyayāmasy aghāyoḥ paripanthinaḥ

Against various evils

Yonder on the further shore are she-adders, thrice seven, out of their sloughs (-jarā́yu); with the sloughs of them do we wrap up (ápi vyā) the (two) eyes of the malignant waylayer.

viṣūcy etu kṛntatī pinākam iva bibhratī viṣvak punarbhuvā mano 'samṛddhā aghāyavaḥ

Let the cutting one (kṛt) go asunder, she who bears as it were a club (pínăka); asunder [go] the mind of her that returns to life (punarbhú); unsuccessful [are] the malignant ones.

na bahavaḥ sam aśakan nārbhakā abhi dādhṛṣuḥ veṇor adgā ivābhito 'samṛddhā aghāyavaḥ

The many have not been able together; the few have not ventured on [it]; like the sprouts (? ádga) of a bamboo (veṇú) round about, unsuccessful [are] the malignant ones.

pretaṃ pādau pra sphurataṃ vahataṃ pṛṇato gṛhān indrāny etu prathamājītāmuṣitā puraḥ

Go forward, ye (two) feet; kick (sphur) forward; carry to the houses of the bestower (pṛ); let Indrāṇī go first, unscathed, unrobbed, in front.
