RV 5.2.12

तुविग्रीवो वृषभो वावृधानो ऽशत्र्व् अर्यः सम् अजाति वेदः । इतीमम् अग्निम् अमृता अवोचन् बर्हिष्मते मनवे शर्म यंसद् धविष्मते मनवे शर्म यंसत् ॥

tuvigrīvo vṛṣabho vāvṛdhāno 'śatrv aryaḥ sam ajāti vedaḥ | itīmam agnim amṛtā avocan barhiṣmate manave śarma yaṃsad dhaviṣmate manave śarma yaṃsat ||

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

May he, the strong-necked Steer, waxing in vigour, gather the foeman's wealth with none to check him. Thus to this Agni have the Immortals spoken. To man who spreads the grass may he grant shelter, grant shelter to the man who brings oblation.
