Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 3.17.4

RV 3.17.4

अग्निं सुदीतिं सुदृशं गृणन्तो नमस्यामस् त्वेड्यं जातवेदः । त्वां दूतम् अरतिं हव्यवाहं देवा अकृण्वन्न् अमृतस्य नाभिम् ॥

agniṃ sudītiṃ sudṛśaṃ gṛṇanto namasyāmas tveḍyaṃ jātavedaḥ | tvāṃ dūtam aratiṃ havyavāhaṃ devā akṛṇvann amṛtasya nābhim ||

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

Agni most bright and fair with song we honour, yea, the adorable, O Jatavedas. Thee, envoy, messenger, oblation-bearer, the Gods have made centre of life eternal.
