10,151 Faith 
10.CLI Faith 
śraddháyāgníḥ sám idhyate śraddháyā hūyate havíḥ |
śraddhā́m bhágasya mūrdháni vácasā́ vedayāmasi || 
1 By Faith is Agni kindled, through Faith is oblation offered up. We celebrate with praises Faith upon the height of happiness. 
priyáṃ śraddhe dádataḥ priyáṃ śraddhe dídāsataḥ |
priyám bhojéṣu yájvasu idám ma uditáṃ kr̥dhi || 
2 Bless thou the man who gives, O Faith; Faith, bless the man who fain would give. Bless thou the liberal worshippers: bless thou the word that I have said. 
yáthā devā́ ásureṣu śraddhā́m ugréṣu cakriré |
evám bhojéṣu yájvasu asmā́kam uditáṃ kr̥dhi || 
3 Even as the Deities maintained Faith in the mighty Asuras, So make this uttered wish of mine true for the liberal worshippers. 
śraddhā́ṃ devā́ yájamānā vāyúgopā úpāsate |
śraddhā́ṃ hr̥dayyàyā́kūtyā śraddháyā vindate vásu || 
4 Guarded by Vāyu, Gods and men who sacrifice draw near to Faith. Man winneth Faith by yearnings of the heart, and opulence by Faith. 
śraddhā́m prātár havāmahe śraddhā́m madhyáṃdinam pári |
śraddhā́ṃ sū́ryasya nimrúci śráddhe śrád dhāpayehá naḥ || 
5 Faith in the early morning, Faith at noonday will we invocate, Faith at the setting of the Sun. O Faith, endow us with belief.
