GunnLeif Merl I 46VIII/2 — stund ‘time’

‘Fá mun hann uppgang         afarlitla stund;
hnekkir hônum         hringserkjat lið.
Kømr sunnan sú         sveit of ægi,
es hann ríki mun         ræna miklu.

‘Hann mun fá uppgang afarlitla stund; hringserkjat lið hnekkir hônum. Sú sveit kømr sunnan of ægi, es mun ræna hann miklu ríki.

‘He will obtain success for a very short time; the mail-shirted army will check him. That band will come from the south across the sea, which will rob him of his great kingdom.
