2.IX Agni 
ní hótā hotr̥ṣádane vídānas tveṣó dīdivā́m̐ asadat sudákṣaḥ |
ádabdhavratapramatir vásiṣṭhaḥ sahasrambharáḥ śúcijihvo agníḥ || 
1 ACCUSTOMED to the Herald's place, the Herald hath seated him, bright, splendid, passing mighty, Whose foresight keeps the Law from violation, excellent, pure-tongued, bringing thousands, Agni. 
tuváṃ dūtás tuvám u naḥ paraspā́s tuváṃ vásya ā́ vr̥ṣabha praṇetā́ |
ágne tokásya nas táne tanū́nām áprayuchan dī́diyad bodhi gopā́ḥ || 
2 Envoy art thou, protector from the foeman, strong God, thou leadest us to higher blessings. Refulgent, be an ever-heedful keeper, Agni, for us and for our seed offspring.

yásmād yóner udā́rithā yáje tám prá tvé havī́ṃṣi juhure sámiddhe || 
3 May we adore thee in thy loftiest birthplace, and, with our praises, in thy lower station. The place whence thou issued forth I worship: to thee well kindled have they paid oblations. 
ágne yájasva havíṣā yájīyāñ chruṣṭī́ deṣṇám abhí gr̥ṇīhi rā́dhaḥ |
tváṃ hí ási rayipátī rayīṇā́ṃ tuváṃ śukrásya vácaso manótā || 
4 Agni, best Priest, pay worship with oblation; quickly commend the gift to be presented; For thou art Lord of gathered wealth and treasure. of the bright song of praise thou art inventor. 
ubháyaṃ te ná kṣīyate vasavyàṃ divé-dive jā́yamānasya dasma |
kr̥dhí kṣumántaṃ jaritā́ram agne kr̥dhí pátiṃ suapatyásya rāyáḥ || 
5 The twofold opulence, O Wonder-Worker, of thee new-born each day never decreases. Enrich with food the man who lauds thee, Agni: make him the lord of wealth with noble offspring. 
saínā́nīkena suvidátro asmé yáṣṭā devā́m̐ ā́yajiṣṭhaḥ suastí |
ádabdho gopā́ utá naḥ paraspā́ ágne dyumád utá revád didīhi || 
6 May he, benevolent with this fair aspect, best sacrificer, bring the Gods to bless us. Sure guardian, our protector from the foemen, shine, Agni, with thine affluence and splendour.
