Agni is the living, the man who gives faith to rites — he who keeps the fuel and bestows oblation. He who knows the offering fully, with respect he turns it to the left and assigns you honor.
The man, Agni, who worships you, who praises you, who offers oblations to you with kindled fuel, who presents burnt-offerings to you with prostrations, he verily, protected by you, obtains all desired wealth.
Agni, the mortal who hath toiled and worshipped, brought thee oblations with his kindled fuel, And well knows sacrifice with adoration, gains every joy with thee to guard and help him.
