Sukta 19
अग्ने॒ यत् ते॒ऽर्चिस्तेन॒ तं प्रत्य॑र्च॒ यो॒३स्मान् द्वेष्टि॒ यं व॒यं द्वि॒ष्मः
ágne yát te ’rcís ténā táṃ práty-arcá yó ’smā́n dvéṣṭi yáṃ vayáṃ dvíṣmaḥ
O Agni, with that flame of thine, blaze thou back upon him—who hateth us, whom we do hate.
Hỡi Agni, với ngọn lửa của ngươi, hãy bùng cháy đáp trả lên kẻ ấy—kẻ ghét chúng ta, kẻ mà chúng ta ghét.
