SV 2 6213.2

अपां नपातं सुभगं सुदीदितिमग्निमु श्रेष्ठशोचिषं । स नो मित्रस्य वरुणस्य सो अपामा सुम्नं यक्षते दिवि

apāṃ napātaṃ subhagaṃ sudīditimagnimu śreṣṭhaśociṣaṃ | sa no mitrasya varuṇasya so apāmā sumnaṃ yakṣate divi

(We have chosen) the child of the waters, the bountiful, the brightly shining, Agni of the most excellent flame; may he obtain for us the favour of Mitra, of Varuṇa, and of the waters, in heaven.
