You, Agni, are with us in life; you are first among the gods, sole in might. Waters flow around you; the household streams pursue you—abode of the sacrificial folk to many heavens alike.
You, ancient Agni, among men and gods, are alone to us the lord of wealth; the flowing waters confinedwithin their own banks flow around you;may all our adversaries perish.
Our Agni, thou art first among the Gods, and first mid living men. Thou only rulest over wealth. Round about thee, as natural dams, circumfluous the waters run. Let all the others die away.
