Agni, you received the ancient guest, the thoughtful, the hair-stirring householder; you established great banners, manifold in form, endowed with wealth, a noble guiding householder, the vanquisher of decay and poison.

Men have established you, (Agni), their ancient guest, as the lord of the house; (you), the blazing-haired, the vast bannered, the multiform, the dispenser of wealth, the bestower of happiness, the kind protector, the destruction of decaying (trees).

Thee, Agni, men have stablished as their guest of old, as Master of the household, thee, with hair of flame; High-bannered, multiform, distributor of wealth, kind helper, good protector, drier of the floods.
