Atharva Veda 3.5

For prosperity: with a parṇá-amulet

Hither hath come this parṇá-amulet, strong, by strength slaughtering our rivals; force of the gods, milk of the herbs, let it quicken me with splendor unremittingly.

In me [maintain] dominion, O parṇá-amulet, in me maintain wealth; may I in the sphere of royalty be familiar (? nijá), supreme.

The dear amulet which the gods deposited hidden in the forest-tree—that let the gods give to us to wear, together with length of life (ā́yus).

The parṇá, Soma's formidable power, hath come, given by Indra, governed (çās) by Varuṇa; may I, shining greatly, wear it in order to length of life for a hundred autumns.

The parṇá-amulet hath ascended me, in order to great unharmedness, so that I may be superior to patron (aryamán) and to ally (saṁvíd).

They that are clever chariot-makers, that are skilful smiths—subjects to me do thou, O parṇá, make all people (jána) round about.

They that are kings, king-makers, that are charioteers and troop-leaders—subjects to me do thou, O parṇá, make all people round about.

Parṇá art thou, body-protecting; a hero, from the same womb (yóni) with me a hero; with the year's brilliancy—therewith I bind thee on, O amulet.
