text and translation

The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):

Hrollaugur fór til Íslands með ráði Haralds konungs og hafði
með sér konu sína og sonu. Hann kom austur að Horni og skaut
þar fyrir borð öndvegissúlum sínum, og bar þær á land í
Hornafirði, en hann rak undan og vestur fyrir land; fékk hann
þá útivist harða og vatnfátt. Þeir tóku land vestur í
Leiruvogi á Nesjum; var hann þar hinn fyrsta vetur. Þá frá
hann til öndugissúlna sinna og fór austur þann veg; var hann
annan vetur undir Ingólfsfelli.

Síðan fór hann austur í Hornafjörð og nam land austan frá
Horni til Kvíár og bjó fyrst undir Skarðsbrekku í Hornafirði,
en síðan á Breiðabólstað í Fellshverfi. Þá hafði (hann) lógað
þeim löndum, er norður voru frá Borgarhöfn, en hann átti til
dauðadags þau lönd, er suður voru frá Heggsgerðismúla.

Hrollaugur var höfðingi mikill og hélt vingan við Harald
konung, en fór aldri utan. Haraldur konungur sendi Hrollaugi
sverð og ölhorn og gullhring, þann er vó fimm aura; sverð það
átti síðar Kolur, son Síðu-Halls, en Kolskeggur hinn fróði
hafði séð hornið.

Hrollaugur var faðir Össurar keiliselgs, er átti Gró dóttur
Þórðar illuga. Dóttir þeirra var Þórdís móðir Halls á Síðu.
Annar son Hrollaugs var Hróaldur, faðir Óttars hvalróar,
föður Guðlaugar, móður Þorgerðar, móður Járngerðar, móður
Valgerðar, móður Böðvars, föður Guðnýjar, móður Sturlusona.
Önundur var hinn þriðji son Hrollaugs.

Hallur á Síðu átti Jóreiði Þiðrandadóttur. Þeirra son var
Þorsteinn, faðir Magnúss, föður Einars, föður Magnúss
byskups. Annar son Halls var Egill, faðir Þorgerðar, móður
Jóns byskups hins helga. Þorvarður Hallsson var faðir
Þórdísar, móður Jórunnar, móður Halls prests, föður Gissurar,
föður Magnúss byskups. Yngvildur Hallsdóttir var móðir
Þóreyjar, móður Sæmundar prests hins fróða. Þorsteinn
Hallsson var faðir Gyðríðar, móður Jóreiðar, móður Ara prests
hins fróða. Þorgerður Hallsdóttir var móðir Yngvildar, móður
Ljóts, föður Járngerðar, móður Valgerðar, móður Böðvars,
föður Guðnýjar, móður Sturlusona.
