RV 8.39.5

स चिकेत सहीयसाग्निश् चित्रेण कर्मणा । स होता शश्वतीनां दक्षिणाभिर् अभीवृत इनोति च प्रतीव्यं नभन्ताम् अन्यके समे ॥

sa ciketa sahīyasāgniś citreṇa karmaṇā | sa hotā śaśvatīnāṃ dakṣiṇābhir abhīvṛta inoti ca pratīvyaṃ nabhantām anyake same ||

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

Agni hath made himself renowned by wonderful victorious act. He is the Priest of all the tribes, chosen with sacrificial meads. He urges Deities to receive. Let all the others die away.
