Rig Veda 2.7

Vasu, thou most youthful God, Bharata, Agni, bring us wealth, Excellent, splendid, much-desired.

Let no malignity prevail against us, either God's or man's. Save us from this and enmity.

So through thy favour may we force through all our enemies a way, As 'twere through streaming water-floods.

Thou, Purifier Agni, high shinest forth, bright, adorable, When worshipped with the sacred oil.

Ours art thou, Agni, Bharata, honoured by us with barren cows, With bullocks and with kine in calf

Wood-fed, bedewed with sacred oil, ancient, Invoker, excellent, The Son of Strength, the Wonderful.
