RV 2.1.9

त्वाम् अग्ने पितरम् इष्टिभिर् नरस् त्वाम् भ्रात्राय शम्या तनूरुचम् । त्वम् पुत्रो भवसि यस् ते ऽविधत् त्वं सखा सुशेवः पास्य् आधृषः ॥

tvām agne pitaram iṣṭibhir naras tvām bhrātrāya śamyā tanūrucam | tvam putro bhavasi yas te 'vidhat tvaṃ sakhā suśevaḥ pāsy ādhṛṣaḥ ||

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

Agni, men seek thee as a Father with their prayers, win thee, bright-formed, to brotherhood with holy act. Thou art a Son to him who duly worships thee, and as a trusty Friend thou guardest from attack.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
