by The Rishis of the Atharva Veda c. 1200–900 BCE (traditional; uncertain)

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895–96) · From The Hymns of the Atharva-Veda (1895–96)

Religion

Agree and be united: let your minds be all of one accord, Even as the Gods of ancient days, unanimous, await their share.

The rede is common, common the assembly, common the law, so be their thoughts united.
I offer up your general oblation: together entertain one common purpose.

One and the same be your resolve, be all your hearts in har-mony: One and the same be all your minds that all may happily con-sent.
