We, O Agni, whether by prayer or by brave heroism, whether by sacred rite or thought, surpass men. Above us are the five high heavens; the golden bright ones are strong and hard to harm.
May we manifest vigour among other men, Agni, through the steed and the food (which you have given); and may our unsurpassed wealth shine like the sun over (that of) the five classes of beings.
Agni, may we show forth our valour with the steed or with the power of prayer beyond all other men; And over the Five Races let our glory shine high like the realm of light and unsurpassable.
