Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.2.5

yát pā́ka-trā mánasā dī́na-dakṣā́ ná yajñásya manvaté mártyāsaḥ | agníṣ tád hótā kratu-víd vi-jā́nan yájiṣṭho devā́ṁ ṛtu-śó yájāti ||

Apabila manusia fana, kebudak-budakan pada fikiran dan lemah keupayaan, tidak benar-benar mengerti yajña, maka Agni sebagai Hotṛ—yang mengetahui maksud (kratu)—memahaminya dengan terang; paling mahir dalam persembahan, ia mempersembahkan kepada para dewa menurut tertib musim yang benar (ṛtu).
