Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.12.3

RV 4.12.3

अग्निर् ईशे बृहतः क्षत्रियस्याग्निर् वाजस्य परमस्य रायः । दधाति रत्नं विधते यविष्ठो व्य् आनुषङ् मर्त्याय स्वधावान् ॥

agnir īśe bṛhataḥ kṣatriyasyāgnir vājasya paramasya rāyaḥ | dadhāti ratnaṃ vidhate yaviṣṭho vy ānuṣaṅ martyāya svadhāvān ||

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

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.
