Sukta 1.99
Agni (Jātavedas)
Este hino de um só verso invoca Agni como Jātavedas, o fogo onisciente, enquanto o Soma é prensado como oferenda para fortalecer o rito. Pede-se a Agni que queime a intenção hostil e que conduza o adorador em segurança para além de toda passagem difícil —como um barco ao atravessar um rio—, afastando-o do perigo e de caminhos errados.
