Anon Hsv 3VII/6 — ætt ‘family’

Þarflátr ok þakklátr        skaltu fyrir þínum guði
        ok vammalauss vera;
föður ok móður        unn þú fróðhugaðr;
        ræktu þína alla ætt.

Skaltu vera þarflátr ok þakklátr ok vammalauss fyrir guði þínum; unn þú fróðhugaðr föður ok móður; ræktu alla ætt þína.

You must be humble and thankful and unblemished before your God; love your father and mother as a man with intelligence; take care of all your family.
