Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.31.2

RV 1.31.2

त्वम् अग्ने प्रथमो अङ्गिरस्तमः कविर् देवानाम् परि भूषसि व्रतम् । विभुर् विश्वस्मै भुवनाय मेधिरो द्विमाता शयुः कतिधा चिद् आयवे ॥

tvam agne prathamo aṅgirastamaḥ kavir devānām pari bhūṣasi vratam | vibhur viśvasmai bhuvanāya medhiro dvimātā śayuḥ katidhā cid āyave ||

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

O Agni, thou, the best and earliest Angiras, fulfillest as a Sage the holy law of Gods. Sprung from two mothers, wise, through all existence spread, resting in many a place for sake of living man.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
