They who range through heaven and earth and mid-air, who move attendant on the lightning; who are within the quarters, who are within the wind—to those Agnis be this oblation offered; let it be so.
Những ai rong ruổi qua trời, đất và trung không, những ai chuyển động theo ánh chớp; những ai ở trong các phương, ở trong gió—đối với các Agni ấy, xin dâng cúng phẩm này; nguyện sự ấy thành tựu như vậy.
