yas tvām agna inadhate yatasruk tris te annaṃ kṛṇavat sasminn ahan | sa su dyumnair abhy astu prasakṣat tava kratvā jātavedaś cikitvān ||
Whoso enkindles thee, with lifted ladle, and thrice this day offiers thee food, O Agni, May he excel, triumphant through thy splendours, wise through thy mental power, O Jatavedas.
इध्मं यस् ते जभरच् छश्रमाणो महो अग्ने अनीकम् आ सपर्यन् । स इधानः प्रति दोषाम् उषासम् पुष्यन् रयिं सचते घ्नन्न् अमित्रान् ॥
idhmaṃ yas te jabharac chaśramāṇo maho agne anīkam ā saparyan | sa idhānaḥ prati doṣām uṣāsam puṣyan rayiṃ sacate ghnann amitrān ||
Whoso with toil and trouble brings thee fuel, serving the majesty of mighty Agni, He, kindling thee at evening and at morning, prospers, and comes to wealth, and slays his foemen.
Agni is Master of sublime dominion, Agni is Lord of strength and lofty riches. Straightway the self-reliant God, Most Youthful, gives treasures to the mortal who adores him.
Most Youthful God, whatever sin, through folly, we here, as human beings, have committed, In sight of Aditi make thou us sinless remit, entirely, Agni, our offences.
mahaś cid agna enaso abhīka ūrvād devānām uta martyānām | mā te sakhāyaḥ sadam id riṣāma yacchā tokāya tanayāya śaṃ yoḥ ||
Even in the presence of great sin, O Agni, free us from prison of the Gods or mortals. Never may we who are thy friends be injured: grant health and strength unto our seed and offspring.
yathā ha tyad vasavo gauryaṃ cit padi ṣitām amuñcatā yajatrāḥ | evo ṣv asman muñcatā vy aṃhaḥ pra tāry agne prataraṃ na āyuḥ ||
Even as ye here, Gods Excellent and Holy, have loosed the cow that by the foot was tethered, So also set us free from this affliction long let our life, O Agni, be extended.
