Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.72.1

RV 1.72.1

नि काव्या वेधसः शश्वतस् कर् हस्ते दधानो नर्या पुरूणि । अग्निर् भुवद् रयिपती रयीणां सत्रा चक्राणो अमृतानि विश्वा ॥

ni kāvyā vedhasaḥ śaśvatas kar haste dadhāno naryā purūṇi | agnir bhuvad rayipatī rayīṇāṃ satrā cakrāṇo amṛtāni viśvā ||

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

Though holding many gifts for men, he humbleth the higher powers of each wise ordainer. Agni is now the treasure-lord of treasures, for ever granting all immortal bounties.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
