Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.87.4

yajñáir iṣū́ḥ sán-namamāno agne vācā́ śalyā́m aśánibhir dihānáḥ | tā́bhir vidhya hṛ́daye yātu-dhānān pratī́co bāhū́n práti bhaṅdhy eṣām ||

Wahai Agni, dengan yajña engkau melenturkan anak panahmu; dengan vāc engkau menajamkan lembing, menempanya laksana petir. Dengan itu tikamlah para yātudhāna pada jantung; patahkanlah lengan mereka yang menentang gerak yang benar.
