वनेम पूर्वीरर्यो मनीषा अग्निः सुशोको विश्वान्यश्याः ॥

vanema pūrvīr aryo manīṣā agniḥ suśoko viśvāny aśyāḥ ||

आ दैव्यानि व्रता चिकित्वाना मानुषस्य जनस्य जन्म ॥

ā daivyāni vratā cikitvān ā mānuṣasya janasya janma ||

We solicit abundant (food) Agni, who is to be approached by meditation, and shines with pure light, pervades all holy rites, knowing well the acts that are to be addressed to the deities, and (those) which regulate) the birth of the human race.

我們祈求物豐富的阿耆尼，透過冥想接近他，他閃耀著純淨的光芒，遍及所有神聖儀式，深知對神靈的行為，以及那些誕生的人類。

गर्भो यो अपां गर्भो वनानां गर्भश्च स्थातां गर्भश्चरथाम् ॥

garbho yo apāṃ garbho vanānāṃ garbhaś ca sthātāṃ garbhaś carathām ||

अद्रौ चिदस्मा अन्तर्दुरोणे विशां न विश्वो अमृतः स्वाधीः ॥

adrau cid asmā antar duroṇe viśāṃ na viśvo amṛtaḥ svādhīḥ ||

(They offer oblations) on the mountain, or in the mansion, to that Agni, who is within the waters within woods, and within all moveable and immoveable things, immortal and performing pious acts, like a benevolent (prince) among his people.

於山上或宅中，供奉阿耆尼，於水林中，一切動不動之物中，不朽而虔誠的行持，如民中之仁者。

1-70-6 स हि क्षपावाँ अग्नी रयीणां दाशद्यो अस्मा अरं सूक्तैः ॥

sa hi kṣapāvām̐ agnī rayīṇāṃ dāśad yo asmā araṃ sūktaiḥ ||

एता चिकित्वो भूमा नि पाहि देवानां जन्म मर्ताँश्च विद्वान् ॥

etā cikitvo bhūmā ni pāhi devānāṃ janma martām̐ś ca vidvān ||

Agni, the lord of night, grants riches to the worshipper who adores him with sacred hymns. Agni, who are omniscient, and know the origin of gods and men, protect all these (beings dwelling) upon earth.

阿耆尼，夜之主，會賜予用神聖讚美詩崇拜他的崇拜者財富。阿耆尼是全知的，知道神和人的起源，保護地球上的所有居住的眾生。

वर्धान्यं पूर्वीः क्षपो विरूपाः स्थातुश्च रथमृतप्रवीतम् ॥

vardhān yam pūrvīḥ kṣapo virūpāḥ sthātuś ca ratham ṛtapravītam ||

अराधि होता स्वर्निषत्तः कृण्वन्विश्वान्यपांसि सत्या ॥

arādhi hotā svar niṣattaḥ kṛṇvan viśvāny apāṃsi satyā ||

Agni, whom many variously-tinted (mornings) and nights increase, whom, invested with truth, all moveable and immoveable things augment, has been propitiated, and is kindly seated at the holy rite, as the invoker (of the gods), and rendering all (pious) acts (productive) of reward.

阿耆尼，許多不同色彩的早晨和夜晚增加了，祂所投入的真理，所有可移動和不可移動的事物都增強了，已得到安撫，並作為眾神的祈求者在神聖的儀式中親切地就座，使所有虔誠的行持，富有成效的得到回報。

गोषु प्रशस्तिं वनेषु धिषे भरन्त विश्वे बलिं स्वर्णः ॥

goṣu praśastiṃ vaneṣu dhiṣe bharanta viśve baliṃ svar ṇaḥ ||

वि त्वा नरः पुरुत्रा सपर्यन्पितुर्न जिव्रेर्वि वेदो भरन्त ॥

vi tvā naraḥ purutrā saparyan pitur na jivrer vi vedo bharanta ||

Agni, confer excellence upon our valued cattle, and may all men bring us acceptable tribute; offering in many laces sacrifices to you, men receive riches from you, as (sons) from an aged father.

阿耆尼，請賜予我們珍貴的牲畜及卓越的品質，願所有人為我們帶來可接受的貢品；人們向你獻上許多祭品，從你那裡得到財富，就像兒子從年邁的父親那裡得到財富一樣。

साधुर्न गृध्नुरस्तेव शूरो यातेव भीमस्त्वेषः समत्सु ॥

sādhur na gṛdhnur asteva śūro yāteva bhīmas tveṣaḥ samatsu ||

(May Agni), who is like one who succeeds (in his undertakings), and acquires (what he wishes for), who is like a warrior casting a dart, and resembles a fearful adversary, who is brilliant in combats, (be to us a friend).

願阿耆尼，他就像一個成功的人的事業，並且獲得了他所希望的。他就像一個投擲飛鏢的戰士，並且像一個可怕的對手，他在戰鬥中表現出色。祂，是我們是朋友。
