RV 1.128.8

अग्निं होतारम् ईळते वसुधितिम् प्रियं चेतिष्ठम् अरतिं न्य् एरिरे हव्यवाहं न्य् एरिरे । विश्वायुं विश्ववेदसं होतारं यजतं कविम् । देवासो रण्वम् अवसे वसूयवो गीर्भी रण्वं वसूयवः ॥

agniṃ hotāram īḷate vasudhitim priyaṃ cetiṣṭham aratiṃ ny erire havyavāhaṃ ny erire | viśvāyuṃ viśvavedasaṃ hotāraṃ yajataṃ kavim | devāso raṇvam avase vasūyavo gīrbhī raṇvaṃ vasūyavaḥ ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Agni the Priest they supplicate to grant them wealth: him, dear, most thoughtful, have they made their messenger, him, offering-bearer have they made, Beloved of all, who knoweth all, the Priest, the Holy one, the Sage-- Him, Friend, for help, the Gods when they are fain for wealth, him, Friend, with hymns, when fain for wealth.
