ESk Øxfl 7III/2 — tveim ‘on the two’

Blóðeisu liggr bæði
bjargs tveim megin geima
sjóðs (ák søkkva stríði)
snær ok eldr (at mæra).

Bæði snær sjóðs ok eldr geima liggr tveim megin bjargs blóðeisu; ák at mæra stríði søkkva.

Both snow of the purse [SILVER] and fire of the sea [GOLD] lie on the two sides of the crag of the blood-ember [AXE]; I must praise the fighter of enemies [WARRIOR].
