Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.14.5

RV 6.14.5

अग्निर् हि विद्मना निदो देवो मर्तम् उरुष्यति । सहावा यस्यावृतो रयिर् वाजेष्व् अवृतः ॥

agnir hi vidmanā nido devo martam uruṣyati | sahāvā yasyāvṛto rayir vājeṣv avṛtaḥ ||

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

For with his wisdom Agni, God, protects the mortal from reproach, Whose conquering wealth is never checked, is never checked in deeds of might.
