1 THIS Agni is the Lord of great felicity and hero Strength; Lord of wealth in herds of kine; Lord of the battles with the foe. 
imáṃ naro marutaḥ saścatā vŕ̥dhaṃ yásmin rā́yaḥ śévr̥dhāsaḥ |
abhí yé sánti pŕ̥tanāsu dūḍhíyo viśvā́hā śátrum ādabhúḥ || 
2 Wait, Maruts, Heroes, upon him the Prosperer in whom is bliss-increasing wealth; Who in fights ever conquer evil-hearted men, who overcome the enemy.

5 Give us not up to indigence, Agni, nor want of hero sons, Nor, Son of Strength, to lack of cattle, nor to blame. Drive. thou our enemies away.

sáṃ rāyā́ bhū́yasā sr̥ja mayobhúnā túvidyumna yáśasvatā || 
6 Help us to strength, blest Agni! rich in progeny, abundant, in our sacrifice. Flood us with riches yet more plenteous, bringing weal, with high renown, most Glorious One!
