Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.14

समिधा जातवेदसे देवाय देवहूतिभिः । हविर्भिः शुक्रशोचिषे नमस्विनो वयं दाशेमाग्नये ॥

samidhā jātavedase devāya devahūtibhiḥ | havirbhiḥ śukraśociṣe namasvino vayaṃ dāśemāgnaye ||

With reverence and with offered gifts serve we the God whose flame is bright: Let us bring Jatavedas fuel, and adore Agni when we invoke the Gods.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

वयं ते अग्ने समिधा विधेम वयं दाशेम सुष्टुती यजत्र । वयं घृतेनाध्वरस्य होतर् वयं देव हविषा भद्रशोचे ॥

vayaṃ te agne samidhā vidhema vayaṃ dāśema suṣṭutī yajatra | vayaṃ ghṛtenādhvarasya hotar vayaṃ deva haviṣā bhadraśoce ||

Agni, may we perform thy rites with fuel, and honour thee, O Holy one, with praises: Honour thee, Priest of sacrifice! with butter, thee, God of blessed light! with our oblation.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ नो देवेभिर् उप देवहूतिम् अग्ने याहि वषट्कृतिं जुषाणः । तुभ्यं देवाय दाशतः स्याम यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

ā no devebhir upa devahūtim agne yāhi vaṣaṭkṛtiṃ juṣāṇaḥ | tubhyaṃ devāya dāśataḥ syāma yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

Come, Agni, with the Gods to our invoking, come, pleased, to offerings sanctified with Vasat. May we be his who pays thee, God, due honour. Ye Gods, preserve us evermore with blessings.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
