Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·10·10.151
श्रद्धयाग्निः सम् इध्यते श्रद्धया हूयते हविः । श्रद्धाम् भगस्य मूर्धनि वचसा वेदयामसि ॥
śraddhayāgniḥ sam idhyate śraddhayā hūyate haviḥ | śraddhām bhagasya mūrdhani vacasā vedayāmasi ||
By Faith is Agni kindled, through Faith is oblation offered up. We celebrate with praises Faith upon the height of happiness.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
प्रियं श्रद्धे ददतः प्रियं श्रद्धे दिदासतः । प्रियम् भोजेषु यज्वस्व् इदम् म उदितं कृधि ॥
priyaṃ śraddhe dadataḥ priyaṃ śraddhe didāsataḥ | priyam bhojeṣu yajvasv idam ma uditaṃ kṛdhi ||
Bless thou the man who gives, O Faith; Faith, bless the man who fain would give. Bless thou the liberal worshippers: bless thou the word that I have said.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
यथा देवा असुरेषु श्रद्धाम् उग्रेषु चक्रिरे । एवम् भोजेषु यज्वस्व् अस्माकम् उदितं कृधि ॥
yathā devā asureṣu śraddhām ugreṣu cakrire | evam bhojeṣu yajvasv asmākam uditaṃ kṛdhi ||
Even as the Deities maintained Faith in the mighty Asuras, So make this uttered wish of mine true for the liberal worshippers.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
श्रद्धां देवा यजमाना वायुगोपा उपासते । श्रद्धां हृदय्ययाकूत्या श्रद्धया विन्दते वसु ॥
śraddhāṃ devā yajamānā vāyugopā upāsate | śraddhāṃ hṛdayyayākūtyā śraddhayā vindate vasu ||
Guarded by Vayu, Gods and men who sacrifice draw near to Faith. Man winneth Faith by yearnings of the heart, and opulence by Faith.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
श्रद्धाम् प्रातर् हवामहे श्रद्धाम् मध्यन्दिनम् परि । श्रद्धां सूर्यस्य निम्रुचि श्रद्धे श्रद् धापयेह नः ॥
śraddhām prātar havāmahe śraddhām madhyandinam pari | śraddhāṃ sūryasya nimruci śraddhe śrad dhāpayeha naḥ ||
Faith in the early morning, Faith at noonday will we invocate, Faith at the setting of the Sun. O Faith, endow us with belief.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
