English:- Like fire for comfort, with our own holy chant for the internal yajna of our spiritual purification and your joy, we fellow yajakas, choose you, Agni, high priest of cosmic yajna, all pervasive purifier by the white heat of his divine radiance. Verily the lord is great and glorious for you. (Rigved 10-21-1)

अथा ते सख्ये अन्धसो वि वो मदे रणा गावो न यवसे विवक्षसे॥४२२

English:- O Soma, lord of peace and bliss, inspire our mind, skill and wisdom, and our yajnic actions to move in the direction of goodness and piety, so that, living in your love and friendship, we may enjoy food and life's delicacies like cows enjoying their favourite grass and thus partake of your divine joy in life here itself. O Soma, you are great and glorious indeed. (Rigved 10-25-1)

श्रिय ऋष्व उपाकयोर्नि शिप्री हरिवां दधे हस्तयोर्वज्रमायसम्॥४२३
English:- Great by knowledge, awful by action, in his own right and by his own might, he maintains in power and majesty. Elevated and sublime, blazing brilliant, lord of horses and speed of motion, he wields the golden thunderbolt of power and force in both his hands for the beauty and dignity of life and the republic of humanity. (Rigved 1-81-4)

य पात्र हारियोजनं पूर्णमिन्द्राचिकेतति योजा न्विन्द्र ते हरी॥४२४

English:- Indra, only that person who knows the science and technology of that horse-powered chariot which is perfect and fully capable of defence and safety against the enemy, would ride that prize-winning chariot of victory which would lead him to the conquest of territory and prosperity. Indra, yoke your horses (and come to join the yajna of defence and protection). (Rigved1-82-4)
ओ३म् अग्निं तं मन्ये यो वसुरस्तं यं यन्ति धेनव।
अस्तमर्वन्त आशवोऽस्तं नित्यासो वाजिन इष स्तोतृभ्य आ भर॥४२५
अस्तमर्वन्त आशवोऽस्तं नित्यासो वाजिन इष स्तोतृभ्य आ भर॥४२५
English:- Agni is that power and presence of energy, I believe, which pervades everything and in which and by which all things abide and function. The cows abide in it, move by it and end up into it. Horses abide in it, move by it and end into it. So do all fast moving streams and objects, permanent forms, and all forms of energy move by it and retire into it. O scholar of Agni, universal energy, produce and bring up food and energy for the celebrants and supplicants for Agni. This energy is originally set in motion by Agni, the Cosmic omnipotent Spirit. (In the mantra agni is described as astam, i.e., set into motion.) (Rigved 5-6-1)

सजोषसो यमर्यमा मित्रो नयति वरुणो अति द्विष॥४२६
सजोषसो यमर्यमा मित्रो नयति वरुणो अति द्विष॥४२६
English:- O devas, divinities of nature, noble scholars and sages, neither sin nor suffering, nor anything vicious can touch the mortal whom Aryama, spirit of enlightened guidance, Mitra, spirit of love and friendship, and Varuna, spirit of judgement and justice, all together with love and care without relent, lead across hate, jealousy and enmity. (Rigved 10-126-1)
