Rig Veda 5.3.12

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

इमे यामासस तवद्रिग अभूवन वसवे वा तद इद आगो अवाचि | नाहायम अग्निर अभिशस्तये नो न रीषते वाव्र्धानः परा दात

IAST Romanisation

ime yāmāsas tvadrigh abhūvan vasave vā tad id āgho avāci | nāhāyam aghnir abhiśastaye no na rīṣate vāvṛdhānaḥ parā dāt

English Translation (Griffith)

To thee these eulogies have been directed: or to the Vasu hath this sin been spoken. But this our Agni, flaming high, shall never yield us to calumny, to him who wrongs us.
