Sukta 10.115

Rishi: Kaṇva (Kāṇva tradition indicated by 10.115.5; hymn as a whole is Kāṇva-associated)

Chandas: Triṣṭubh (typical for Agni hymns in this register; verify by scan)

एवाग्निर्मर्तैः सह सूरिभिर्वसुः ष्टवे सहसः सूनरो नृभिः । मित्रासो न ये सुधिता ऋतायवो द्यावो न द्युम्नैरभि सन्ति मानुषान् ॥

Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.115.7

evā́gnír mártaiḥ sahá sūríbhir vásuḥ stávé sáhasaḥ sū́naro nṛ́bhiḥ | mitrā́so ná yé su-dhítā ṛtā́yavo dyā́vo ná dyumnáir abhí sánti mā́nuṣān ||

Demikianlah semoga Agni, Sang Vasu yang gemilang, diteguhkan oleh insan fana bersama para pemimpin yang tercerahkan; laksana putera perkasa daripada kekuatan di antara manusia. Seperti para Mitra—teguh dalam pengertian yang benar, para pengembara Ṛta—seperti langit dengan sinar-sinarnya, mereka berdiri menaungi dan mengelilingi manusia, menekan.
