7.16.1
ए॒ना वो॑ अ॒ग्निं नम॑सो॒र्जो नपा॑त॒मा हु॑वे ।
प्रि॒यं चेति॑ष्ठमर॒तिं स्व॑ध्व॒रं विश्व॑स्य दू॒तम॒मृत॑म् ॥
With these homages I call upon you, Agni, grandson of strength—beloved, most discerning, swift, bearer of the good sacrifice, the immortal messenger of all.
7.16.2
स यो॑जते अरु॒षा वि॒श्वभो॑जसा॒ स दु॑द्रव॒त्स्वा॑हुतः ।
सु॒ब्रह्मा॑ य॒ज्ञः सु॒शमी॒ वसू॑नां दे॒वं राधो॒ जना॑नाम् ॥
He yokes the two ruddy steeds that feed all; well-offered, he speeds on. The sacrifice with good prayer, with fair flames, the god of goods—is the bounty of the people.
7.16.3
उद॑स्य शो॒चिर॑स्थादा॒जुह्वा॑नस्य मी॒ळ्हुषः॑ ।
उद्धू॒मासो॑ अरु॒षासो॑ दिवि॒स्पृशः॒ सम॒ग्निमि॑न्धते॒ नरः॑ ॥
Up rose the flame of him who is called, the bountiful one; up rise the ruddy smokes that touch the sky; together men kindle Agni.
7.16.4
तं त्वा॑ दू॒तं कृ॑ण्महे य॒शस्त॑मं दे॒वाँ आ वी॒तये॑ वह ।
विश्वा॑ सूनो सहसो मर्त॒भोज॑ना॒ रास्व॒ तद्यत्त्वेम॑हे ॥
Him, the messenger, we make you—most famous; bring the gods hither for delight. Son of might, grant mortals all food-offerings: grant that which we ask of you.
7.16.5
त्वम॑ग्ने गृ॒हप॑ति॒स्त्वं होता॑ नो अध्व॒रे ।
त्वं पोता॑ विश्ववार॒ प्रचे॑ता॒ यक्षि॒ वेषि॑ च॒ वार्य॑म् ॥
You, Agni, are the householder; you are the hotar in our sacrifice. You are the potar, O bringer of all treasures; you are wise—worship, offer, and bestow the desired wealth as well.
7.16.6
कृ॒धि रत्नं॒ यज॑मानाय सुक्रतो॒ त्वं हि र॑त्न॒धा असि॑ ।
आ न॑ ऋ॒ते शि॑शीहि॒ विश्व॑मृ॒त्विजं॑ सु॒शंसो॒ यश्च॒ दक्ष॑ते ॥
Make wealth for the sacrificer, O good in deed; for you are the giver of gems. Without our rite, purify all—the priest too, and the good praiser who gives the fee.
7.16.7
त्वे अ॑ग्ने स्वाहुत प्रि॒यासः॑ सन्तु सू॒रयः॑ ।
य॒न्तारो॒ ये म॒घवा॑नो॒ जना॑नामू॒र्वान्दय॑न्त॒ गोना॑म् ॥
O Agni, well-invoked, may your dear patrons be near you, those who guide men, who are rich, and who give even the lower part of the cows.
7.16.8
येषा॒मिळा॑ घृ॒तह॑स्ता दुरो॒ण आँ अपि॑ प्रा॒ता नि॒षीद॑ति ।
तांस्त्रा॑यस्व सहस्य द्रु॒हो नि॒दो यच्छा॑ नः॒ शर्म॑ दीर्घ॒श्रुत् ॥
Protect those in whose house Ilā sits in the morning with ghee in her hand; O strong one, from the hater and the reviler give us your far-famed shelter.
7.16.9
स म॒न्द्रया॑ च जि॒ह्वया॒ वह्नि॑रा॒सा वि॒दुष्ट॑रः ।
अग्ने॑ र॒यिं म॒घव॑द्भ्यो न॒ आ व॑ह ह॒व्यदा॑तिं च सूदय ॥
With his pleasing tongue he is the bearer, with his mouth most wise; O Agni, bring us wealth for the wealthy patrons, and make the offering-gift grow.
7.16.10
ये राधां॑सि॒ दद॒त्यश्व्या॑ म॒घा कामे॑न॒ श्रव॑सो म॒हः ।
ताँ अंह॑सः पिपृहि प॒र्तृभि॒ष्ट्वं श॒तं पू॒र्भिर्य॑विष्ठ्य ॥
Free from sin those who give horse-related great wealth through desire for fame; you, O youngest, fill us with a hundred fortresses together with protectors.
7.16.11
दे॒वो वो॑ द्रविणो॒दाः पू॒र्णां वि॑वष्ट्या॒सिच॑म् ।
उद्वा॑ सि॒ञ्चध्व॒मुप॑ वा पृणध्व॒मादिद्वो॑ दे॒व ओ॑हते ॥
The wealth-giving god covers your full pouring-vessel; pour it from above, or fill it nearby, and then your god is surely eager for you.
7.16.12
तं होता॑रमध्व॒रस्य॒ प्रचे॑तसं॒ वह्निं॑ दे॒वा अ॑कृण्वत ।
दधा॑ति॒ रत्नं॑ विध॒ते सु॒वीर्य॑म॒ग्निर्जना॑य दा॒शुषे॑ ॥
That hotar of the sacrifice, the wise bearer of offerings, the gods made; Agni bestows wealth and good heroism on the worshipper, and on the generous man.
