Sanskrit Original
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.
That man, the protector of the virtuous, destroys, Agni, his enemy by his strength, and baffles, intelligent, the might of (the asura) paṇi, whom you, the wise, the parent of the sacrifice, consentient with the grandson of the waters, encourage (in the hope of) riches.
Agni! the hero slays with might his foeman; the singer bears away the Pani's booty- Even he whom thou, Sage, born in Law, incitest by wealth, accordant with the Child of Waters.
