Atharva Veda 7.12: A prayer for influence at deliberative and religious meetings

In concord may Prajapati's two daughters, Gathering and As-sembly, both protect me.
May every man I meet respect and aid me. Fair be my words, O Fathers, at the meetings.

We know thy name, O Conference: thy name is interchange of talk.
Let all the company who join the Conference agree with me.

Of these men seated here I make the splendour and the lore mine own.
Indra, make me conspicuous in all this gathered company.

Whether your thoughts are turned away, or bound and fastened here or there, We draw them hitherward again: let your mind firmly rest on me.
