Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.4.5

RV 4.4.5

ऊर्ध्वो भव प्रति विध्याध्य् अस्मद् आविष् कृणुष्व दैव्यान्य् अग्ने । अव स्थिरा तनुहि यातुजूनां जामिम् अजामिम् प्र मृणीहि शत्रून् ॥

ūrdhvo bhava prati vidhyādhy asmad āviṣ kṛṇuṣva daivyāny agne | ava sthirā tanuhi yātujūnāṃ jāmim ajāmim pra mṛṇīhi śatrūn ||

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

Rise, Agni, drive off those who fight against us: make manifest thine own celestial vigour. Slacken the strong bows of the demon driven: destroy our foemen whether kin or stranger.
