Sukta 7.6
यो देह्यो अनमयद्वधस्नैर्यो अर्यपत्नीरुषसश्चकार । स निरुध्या नहुषो यह्वो अग्निर्विशश्चक्रे बलिहृतः सहोभिः ॥
yó dehyò anámayad vadhasnáir yó aryápatnīr uṣásaś cakā́ra | sá nirúdhyā náhuṣo yahvó agnír víśaś cakre balihṛ́taḥ sáhobhiḥ ||
He who healed the needy with slaying-powers, he who made the Dawns the spouses of the Arya (the noble aspiration). That far-striding Agni, holding back the adverse, made the peoples bearers of offering by his strengths.
