Sukta 21
शा॒न्तो अ॒ग्निः क्र॒व्याच्छा॒न्तः पु॑रुष॒रेष॑णः । अथो॒ यो वि॑श्वदा॒व्य॑१स्तं क्र॒व्याद॑मशीशमम्
śāntó agníḥ kravyā́c chāntáḥ púruṣareṣaṇaḥ | átho yó viśvadāvyàs táṃ kravyā́dam aśīśamam ||
Calmed is Agni as touching the flesh-eater; calmed the man-seeker: yea, that which is all-devouring—this flesh-eater have I made wholly quiet.
क्रव्याद (मांसभक्षक) संबंधी अग्नी शांत आहे; पुरुष-रेषण (मनुष्य-शोधक)ही शांत आहे. आणि जो विश्वदाव्य (सर्वभक्षक/सर्वदाहक) आहे—त्या क्रव्यादाला मी पूर्णतः शांत केले आहे.
