ǪrvOdd Lv 26VIII (Ǫrv 60)/1 — brendi ‘burned’

Oddr brendi hof         ok hörga braut
ok trégoðum         týndi þínum.
Gerðu þau ekki         góðs í heimi,
er þau ór eldi         ösla né máttu.

Oddr brendi hof ok braut hörga ok týndi trégoðum þínum. Þau gerðu ekki góðs í heimi, er þau né máttu ösla ór eldi.

Oddr burned the temples and broke up the sanctuaries and destroyed your wooden gods. They did nothing good in the world, since they could not escape from the fire.
