Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.2.5

RV 10.2.5

यत् पाकत्रा मनसा दीनदक्षा न यज्ञस्य मन्वते मर्त्यासः । अग्निष् टद् धोता क्रतुविद् विजानन् यजिष्ठो देवां ऋतुशो यजाति ॥

yat pākatrā manasā dīnadakṣā na yajñasya manvate martyāsaḥ | agniṣ ṭad dhotā kratuvid vijānan yajiṣṭho devāṃ ṛtuśo yajāti ||

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

When, weak in mind, of feeble understanding, mortals bethink them not of sacrificing, Then shall the prudent and discerning Agni worship the Gods, best worshipper, in season.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
