RV 1.186.3

प्रेष्ठं वो अतिथिं गृणीषे ऽग्निं शस्तिभिस् तुर्वणिः सजोषाः । असद् यथा नो वरुणः सुकीर्तिर् इषश् च पर्षद् अरिगूर्तः सूरिः ॥

preṣṭhaṃ vo atithiṃ gṛṇīṣe 'gniṃ śastibhis turvaṇiḥ sajoṣāḥ | asad yathā no varuṇaḥ sukīrtir iṣaś ca parṣad arigūrtaḥ sūriḥ ||

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

Agni I sing, the guest you love most dearly: the Conqueror through our lauds is friendly-minded. That he may be our Varuna rich in glory and send food like a prince praised by the godly.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
