The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable.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

ða se gæst ongan | gledum spiwan,
beorht hofu bærnan; | bryneleoma stod
eldum on andan. | No ðær aht cwices
lað lyftfloga | læfan wolde.
Wæs þæs wyrmes wig | wide gesyne,
nearofages nið | nean ond feorran,
hu se guðsceaða | Geata leode
hatode ond hynde; | hord eft gesceat,
dryhtsele dyrnne, | ær dæges hwile.
Hæfde landwara | lige befangen,
bæle ond bronde, | beorges getruwode,
wiges ond wealles; | him seo wen geleah.
þa wæs Biowulfe | broga gecyðed
snude to soðe, | þæt his sylfes ham,
bolda selest, | brynewylmum mealt,
gifstol Geata. | þæt ðam godan wæs
hreow on hreðre, | hygesorga mæst;
wende se wisa | þæt he wealdende
ofer ealde riht, | ecean dryhtne,
bitre gebulge. | Breost innan weoll
þeostrum geþoncum, | swa him geþywe ne wæs.
Hæfde ligdraca | leoda fæsten,
ealond utan, | eorðweard ðone

Wedera þioden, | wræce leornode.
Heht him þa gewyrcean | wigendra hleo

wigbord wrætlic; | wisse he gearwe
þæt him holtwudu | helpan ne meahte,
lind wið lige. | Sceolde lændaga
æþeling ærgod | ende gebidan,
worulde lifes, | ond se wyrm somod,
þeah ðe hordwelan | heolde lange.
Oferhogode ða | hringa fengel
þæt he þone widflogan | weorode gesohte,
sidan herge; | no he him þa sæcce ondred,
ne him þæs wyrmes wig | for wiht dyde,
eafoð ond ellen, | forðon he ær fela
nearo neðende | niða gedigde,

sigoreadig secg, | sele fælsode
ond æt guðe forgrap | Grendeles mægum
laðan cynnes. | No þæt læsest wæs
hondgemota, | þær mon Hygelac sloh,
syððan Geata cyning | guðe ræsum,
freawine folca | Freslondum on,
Hreðles eafora | hiorodryncum swealt,
bille gebeaten. | þonan Biowulf com
sylfes cræfte, | sundnytte dreah;
hæfde him on earme | ana XXX
hildegeatwa, | þa he to holme beag.
Nealles Hetware | hremge þorfton
feðewiges, | þe him foran ongean
linde bæron; | lyt eft becwom
fram þam hildfrecan | hames niosan.
Oferswam ða sioleða bigong | sunu Ecgðeowes,

þær him Hygd gebead | hord ond rice,
beagas ond bregostol, | bearne ne truwode
þæt he wið ælfylcum | eþelstolas

No ðy ær feasceafte | findan meahton
æt ðam æðelinge | ænige ðinga,
þæt he Heardrede | hlaford wære
oððe þone cynedom | ciosan wolde;
hwæðre he him on folce | freondlarum heold,
