Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 8.39.1

agním astoṣi ṛgmíyam agním īḷā́ yajádhyai | agnír devā́n anaktu na ubhé hí vidáthe kavír antáś cárati dūtyám nabhantām anyaké samé ||

Aku telah memuliakan Agni, sang resi bagi himne; aku memuja Agni yang wajar disembah dalam yajña. Semoga Agni mengurapi dan menempatkan para Dewa atas kami; kerana dalam kedua perhimpunan (vidatha) dia, sang kavi, bergerak di dalam sebagai utusan—biarlah kuasa yang menentang dihalau ke wilayah lain.
