Rig Veda 10.167.4: Mandala 10, Sukta 167, Mantra 4

Sukta 10.167

Rishi: The verse explicitly names Viśvāmitra and Jamadagni; this may signal lineage invocation or a ritual/poetic self-positioning rather than simple authorship. Traditional attribution requires external Anukramaṇī data.
Devata: Mixed/unclear in this verse alone; it speaks of Soma-pressing and addresses a dual ‘vām’.
Chandas: Likely Triṣṭubh (to be confirmed).
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

प्रसूतो भक्षमकरं चरावपि स्तोमं चेमं प्रथमः सूरिरुन्मृजे । सुते सातेन यद्यागमं वां प्रति विश्वामित्रजमदग्नी दमे ॥

Translation

प्रसूत्त होऊन मी पात्रात भक्ष्य-भाग सिद्ध केला आहे, आणि हा स्तोम—प्रथम ‘सूरी’ (प्रेरित दाता) म्हणून—उन्मृजित/प्रकट करीत घडवितो. पिळलेल्या सोमाच्या सिद्धि-लाभाने जेव्हा मी घरात तुमच्या दोघांकडे आलो—हे विश्वामित्र आणि जमदग्नी (प्रेरित दृष्टी व अग्नि-तेजाची अधिष्ठाने)॥
