Atharva Veda
To crush an enemy with a thunderbolt
ayaṃ vajras tarpayatām ṛtasyāvāsya rāṣṭram apa hantu jīvitam śṛṇātu grīvāḥ pra śṛṇātūṣṇihā vṛtrasyeva śacīpatiḥ
To crush an enemy with a thunderbolt
Let this thunderbolt gratify itself with right (? ṛtásya), let it smite down his kingdom, away his life; let it crush [his] neck, crush up his nape, as Cachīpati of Vritra.
adharo'dhara uttarebhyo gūḍhaḥ pṛthivyā mot sṛpat vajreṇāvahataḥ śayām
Beneath, beneath them that are above, hidden, may he not creep out of the earth; let him lie smitten down by the thunderbolt.
yo jināti tam anviccha yo jināti tam ij jahi jinato vajra tvaṃ sīmantam anvañcam anupātaya
Whoever scathes, him seek thou after; whoever scathes, him smite; the crown of the scather, O thunderbolt, do thou cause to fall following after.
