Rigveda · Chapter Mandala 6, Sukta 13 · Verse 6.13.1
त्वद्विश्वा॑ सुभग॒ सौभ॑गा॒न्यग्ने॒ वि य॑न्ति व॒निनो॒ न व॒याः । श्रु॒ष्टी र॒यिर्वाजो॑ वृत्र॒तूर्ये॑ दि॒वो वृ॒ष्टिरीड्यो॑ री॒तिर॒पाम्
tvadviśvā subhaga saubhagānyagne vi yanti vanino na vayāḥ śruṣṭī rayirvājo vṛtratūrye divo vṛṣṭirīḍyo rītirapām
All your prosperous, fortunate ones, Agni, go where the herds go, not where we go. The order of creation, the kine, and the slayer of Vritra — the rain of heaven and the course of waters.

Rigveda · Chapter Mandala 6, Sukta 13 · Verse 6.13.2
त्वं भगो॑ न॒ आ हि रत्न॑मि॒षे परि॑ज्मेव क्षयसि द॒स्मव॑र्चाः । अग्ने॑ मि॒त्रो न बृ॑ह॒त ऋ॒तस्यासि॑ क्ष॒त्ता वा॒मस्य॑ देव॒ भूरेः॑
tvaṃ bhago na ā hi ratnamiṣe parijmeva kṣayasi dasmavarcāḥ agne mitro na bṛhata ṛtasyāsi kṣattā vāmasya deva bhūreḥ
You, divine, do not take away the jewel that is mine; you consume it around me — the tenfold splendours. Agni, Mitra, you are not greater than Rta; you are the protector of the right-hand gods and of the abundant divine.

Rigveda · Chapter Mandala 6, Sukta 13 · Verse 6.13.3
स सत्प॑तिः॒ शव॑सा हन्ति वृ॒त्रमग्ने॒ विप्रो॒ वि प॒णेर्भ॑र्ति॒ वाज॑म् । यं त्वं प्र॑चेत ऋतजात रा॒या स॒जोषा॒ नप्त्रा॒पां हि॒नोषि॑
sa satpatiḥ śavasā hanti vṛtramagne vipro vi paṇerbharti vājam yaṃ tvaṃ praceta ṛtajāta rāyā sajoṣā naptrāpāṃ hinoṣi
He, the true lord, slays by the reward-bearing offering, O Agni; the priest exerts the wealth of the hymns. You who, sprung from thought, give kings joy; you kindle the sons of the waters' nape for the heroes.

He whose sons, with a thousandfold voice, sing your praises with hymns and sacrifices, knows the mortal night's appointed time. Agni, he sets the world's wealth each year, the grain that is offered to the Vasus.

To those men you give, through glorious fame, heroic sons by the thousand, O Agni; you perform deeds with abundant offerings. Many are the cattle through the strong herds, by the brave yoke of the wolves, by your heroic might.

vadmā sūno sahaso no vihāyā agne tokaṃ tanayaṃ vāji no dāḥ viśvābhirgīrbhirabhi pūrtimaśyāṃ madema śatahimāḥ suvīrāḥ
Speak, sons, swiftly for us; O Agni, give the calf or the child as strength to us. With all-holy hymns and songs fill us, grant us, brave ones, a hundredfold might.
