krapts með önd til graptar
sitt, ok sæll reis dróttinn
sólar hauðrs af dauða.
Urðu allir fyrðar
angrhegnanda fegnir,
áðr þá er elsku fæðis
aldyggs bani hryggði. | {Kennir krapts} fór til graptar keykja lík sitt með önd, ok {sæll dróttinn {sólar hauðrs}} reis af dauða. Allir fyrðar urðu fegnir {angrhegnanda}, þá er bani {aldyggs fæðis elsku} áðr hryggði. {The knower of strength} [POWERFUL MAN] went to the grave to quicken his body with spirit, and {the blessed Lord {of sun’s land}} [SKY/HEAVEN > = God (= Christ)] arose from death. All men became glad {at the harm-suppressor} [= God (= Christ)], those whom the death {of the fully loyal nourisher of love} [= God (= Christ)] earlier grieved.
