RV 2.25.1

इन्धानो अग्निं वनवद् वनुष्यतः कृतब्रह्मा शूशुवद् रातहव्य इत् । जातेन जातम् अति स प्र सर्सृते यं-यं युजं कृणुते ब्रह्मणस् पतिः ॥

indhāno agniṃ vanavad vanuṣyataḥ kṛtabrahmā śūśuvad rātahavya it | jātena jātam ati sa pra sarsṛte yaṃ-yaṃ yujaṃ kṛṇute brahmaṇas patiḥ ||

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

He lighting up the flame shall conquer enemies: strong shall he be who offers prayer and brings his gift. He with his seed spreads forth beyond another's seed, whomever Brahmanaspati takes for his friend.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
