Gríml Lv 2VIII (GrL 3)/6 — röðull ‘the sun’

Þrífiz hvárgi         Þjassa dóttir
brúðir verstar;         brátt skal ek reiðaz.
Rétt skal ek ykr,         áðr röðull skíni,
vörgum senda         víst til bráðar.

Þrífiz hvárgi dóttir Þjassa, verstar brúðir; ek skal brátt reiðaz. Ek skal víst senda ykr rétt til bráðar vörgum, áðr röðull skíni.

May neither daughter of Þjazi <giant> [GIANTESS] thrive, the worst women; I shall fly into a rage quickly. I will certainly dispatch you two straight as meat for wolves before the sun shines.
