Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.140.6

RV 10.140.6

ऋतावानम् महिषं विश्वदर्शतम् अग्निं सुम्नाय दधिरे पुरो जनाः । श्रुत्कर्णं सप्रथस्तमं त्वा गिरा दैव्यम् मानुषा युगा ॥

ṛtāvānam mahiṣaṃ viśvadarśatam agniṃ sumnāya dadhire puro janāḥ | śrutkarṇaṃ saprathastamaṃ tvā girā daivyam mānuṣā yugā ||

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

The men have set before them them for their welfare Agni, strong, visible to all, the Holy. Thee, Godlike One, with ears to hear, most famous, men's generations magnify with praise-songs.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
