Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 8.39.4

Transliteration

tát-tad agnír váyo dadhé yáthā-yathā kṛpaṇyáti | ūrjā́hutiḥ vásūnāṃ śáṃ ca yóś ca máyó dadhé víśvasyai deváhūtyai nabhantām anyaké samé ||

Translation

Berulang-ulang Agni menegakkan kelimpahan hidup, sebagaimana seseorang merindu dengan kebutuhan. Sebagai persembahan daya bagi para Vasu, ia menempatkan dalam diri kami damai, kesejahteraan, dan sukacita, demi panggilan semesta kepada para Deva—biarlah daya-daya yang berlawanan dibuang ke tempat lain.
