RV 6.15.13

अग्निर् होता गृहपतिः स राजा विश्वा वेद जनिमा जातवेदाः । देवानाम् उत यो मर्त्यानां यजिष्ठः स प्र यजताम् ऋतावा ॥

agnir hotā gṛhapatiḥ sa rājā viśvā veda janimā jātavedāḥ | devānām uta yo martyānāṃ yajiṣṭhaḥ sa pra yajatām ṛtāvā ||

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

Agni, the Priest, is King, Lord of the homestead, he, Jatayedas, knows all generations. Most skilful worshipper mid Gods and mortals, may he begin the sacrifice, the Holy.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
