Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.12.4

RV 6.12.4

सास्माकेभिर् एतरी न शूषैर् अग्नि ष्टवे दम आ जातवेदाः । द्र्वन्नो वन्वन् क्रत्वा नार्वोस्रः पितेव जारयायि यज्ञैः ॥

sāsmākebhir etarī na śūṣair agni ṣṭave dama ā jātavedāḥ | drvanno vanvan kratvā nārvosraḥ piteva jārayāyi yajñaiḥ ||

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

Our friends extol him like a steed for vigour even Agni in the dwelling, jatave~as. Trce-fed, he fights with power as doth a champion, like Dawn's Sire to be praised with sacrifices.
