चित्ति॒मचि॑त्तिं चिनव॒द्वि वि॒द्वान्पृ॒ष्ठेव॑ वी॒ता वृ॑जि॒ना च॒ मर्ता॑न् । रा॒ये च॑ नः स्वप॒त्याय॑ देव॒ दितिं॑ च॒ रास्वादि॑तिमुरुष्य ॥ चित्तिमचित्तिं चिनवद्वि विद्वान्पृष्ठेव वीता वृजिना च मर्तान् । राये च नः स्वपत्याय देव दितिं च रास्वादितिमुरुष्य ॥

sanskrit

May the wise Agni discriminate between virtue and vice between (virtuous and wicked) men, as a (groom distinguishes between) the strong and weak backs (of horses); enrich us with wealth accompanied by virtuous offspring; be bountiful to the liberal giver; shun him who gives not.
