Angantýr Lv 4VIII (Heiðr 34)/6 — trúa ‘to believe it’

Segi ek þér, Hervör,         — hlýttu til meðan,
vísa dóttir, —         þat er verða mun.
Sjá mun Tyrfingr,         ef þú trúa mættir,
ætt þinni, mær,         allri spilla.

Ek segi þér, Hervör, þat er mun verða; hlýttu til meðan, dóttir vísa. Sjá Tyrfingr mun spilla allri ætt þinni, mær, ef þú mættir trúa.

I tell you, Hervǫr, what will happen; listen a while, daughter of a prince. That Tyrfingr will destroy all your family, girl, if you are able to believe it.
