Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.71.7

RV 1.71.7

अग्निं विश्वा अभि पृक्षः सचन्ते समुद्रं न स्रवतः सप्त यह्वीः । न जामिभिर् वि चिकिते वयो नो विदा देवेषु प्रमतिं चिकित्वान् ॥

agniṃ viśvā abhi pṛkṣaḥ sacante samudraṃ na sravataḥ sapta yahvīḥ | na jāmibhir vi cikite vayo no vidā deveṣu pramatiṃ cikitvān ||

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

All sacrificial viands wait on Agni as the Seven mighty Rivers seek the ocean. Not by our brethren was our food discovered: find with the Gods care for us, thou who knowest.
