HSt Frag 4III/4 — brjótask ‘struggle’

Þú munt, fúrs, sem fleiri,
flóðs hirði-Sif, tróður,
grǫnn, við gæfu þinni
grjóts Hjaðninga brjótask.

Grǫnn hirði-Sif fúrs flóðs, þú munt brjótask við gæfu þinni sem fleiri tróður grjóts Hjaðninga.

Slender guarding-Sif <goddess> of the fire of the sea [GOLD > WOMAN], you will struggle against your luck just like other poles of the stones of the Hjaðningar <Heðinn and his followers> [CORPSES > VALKYRIES].
