दृळ्हा चिद् अस्मा अनु दुर् यथा विदे तेजिष्ठाभिर् अरणिभिर् दाष्ट्य् अवसे ऽग्नये दाष्ट्य् अवसे । प्र यः पुरूणि गाहते तक्षद् वनेव शोचिषा । स्थिरा चिद् अन्ना नि रिणात्य् ओजसा नि स्थिराणि चिद् ओजसा ॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
To him, as one who knows, even things solid yield: unrough fire-sticks heated hot he gives his gifts to aid. Men offer Agni gifts for aid. He deeply piercing many a thing hews it like wood with fervent glow. Even hard and solid food he crunches with his might, yea, hard and solid food with might.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
