2Now, Agni, will we say to thee, O wisest and best Afigiras, Our precious, much−availing prayer.

3Who, Agni, is thy kin, of men? who is thy worthy worshipper? On whom dependent? who art thou?

4The kinsman, Agni, of mankind, their well beloved Friend art thou, A Friend whom friends may supplicate.

5Bring to us Mitra, Varuna, bring the Gods to mighty sacrifice. Bring them, O Agni, to thine home.
