We indeed declared that this son was born from non-being—Agni consumed flesh and marrow. You, mighty one, bear forth the vigour, exerting power like a king; the wolfish ones will be destroyed.

Sons of strength, you are to be praised; Agni, sitting upon the (sacrificial) viands, has given (to his worshippers), from their birth, habitation and food giver of strength, bestow strength upon us; triumph like a prize, so that you may abide in our unassailed (dwelling).

Thou art a Singer, Son! our feast-companion: Agni at birth prepared his food and pathway. Therefore vouchsafe us strength, O Strength-bestower. Win like a King: foes trouble not thy dwelling.
