Rig Veda 7.7.6: Mandala 7, Sukta 7, Mantra 6

Sukta 7.7

Rishi: Vasiṣṭha (Vasiṣṭhāḥ)
Devata: Agni (implicit in the hymn-cycle; the inspired fires and mantra-forging powers serve Agni/ṛta)
Chandas: Triṣṭubh (likely; 7th maṇḍala Agni hymns predominantly Triṣṭubh—exact meter should be verified by pada syllable count)
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

एते द्युम्नेभिर्विश्वमातिरन्त मन्त्रं ये वारं नर्या अतक्षन् । प्र ये विशस्तिरन्त श्रोषमाणा आ ये मे अस्य दीधयन्नृतस्य ॥

Translation

এরা তাদের দ্যুম্ন (দীপ্ত শক্তি) দ্বারা সমগ্রকে অতিক্রম করে চারদিকে পরিব্যাপ্ত করেছে—যারা মন্ত্রবাণীকে কাম্য, পুরুষার্থময় পূর্ণতা রূপে গড়েছে। যারা শ্রবণ করে জনসমূহকে অগ্রসর করে—তারাই আমার মধ্যে এই ঋত (সত্য-ব্যবস্থা)-এর ধী (অন্তর্দৃষ্টি) প্রজ্বালিত করেছে।
