RV 3.2.8

नमस्यत हव्यदातिं स्वध्वरं दुवस्यत दम्यं जातवेदसम् । रथीर् ऋतस्य बृहतो विचर्षणिर् अग्निर् देवानाम् अभवत् पुरोहितः ॥

namasyata havyadātiṃ svadhvaraṃ duvasyata damyaṃ jātavedasam | rathīr ṛtasya bṛhato vicarṣaṇir agnir devānām abhavat purohitaḥ ||

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

Honour the oblation-bearer, him who knows fair rites, serve ye the Household Friend who knows all things that be. He drives the chariot of the lofty ordinance: Agni most active, is the great High Priest of Gods.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
