Rig Veda
śraddhayāgniḥ sam idhyate śraddhayā hūyate haviḥ śraddhām bhagasya mūrdhani vacasā vedayāmasi
By Faith is Agni kindled, through Faith is oblation offered up. We celebrate with praises Faith upon the height of happiness.
priyaṃ śraddhe dadataḥ priyaṃ śraddhe didāsataḥ priyam bhojeṣu yajvasv idam ma uditaṃ kṛdhi
Bless thou the man who gives, O Faith; Faith, bless the man who fain would give. Bless thou the liberal worshippers: bless thou the word that I have said.
This verse is not included in this edition.
Even as the Deities maintained Faith in the mighty Asuras, So make this uttered wish of mine true for the liberal worshippers.
śraddhāṃ devā yajamānā vāyugopā upāsate śraddhāṃ hṛdayyayākūtyā śraddhayā vindate vasu
Guarded by Vayu, Gods and men who sacrifice draw near to Faith. Man winneth Faith by yearnings of the heart, and opulence by Faith.
śraddhām prātar havāmahe śraddhām madhyandinam pari śraddhāṃ sūryasya nimruci śraddhe śrad dhāpayeha naḥ
Faith in the early morning, Faith at noonday will we invocate, Faith at the setting of the Sun. O Faith, endow us with belief.
