Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.11.4

RV 5.11.4

अग्निर् नो यज्ञम् उप वेतु साधुयाग्निं नरो वि भरन्ते गृहे-गृहे । अग्निर् दूतो अभवद् धव्यवाहनो ऽग्निं वृणाना वृणते कविक्रतुम् ॥

agnir no yajñam upa vetu sādhuyāgniṃ naro vi bharante gṛhe-gṛhe | agnir dūto abhavad dhavyavāhano 'gniṃ vṛṇānā vṛṇate kavikratum ||

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

May Agni graciously come to our sacrifice. The men bear Agni here and there in every house. He hath become an envoy, bearer of our gifts: electing Agni, men choose one exceeding wise.
