Nimble Christ established firm peace between earth and heavens, God and men — it is necessary for men to receive that glory —, and the valiant lord of the day’s hall [SKY/HEAVEN > = God] laid down deed-adorned peace throughout his entire creation; that was on a Sunday.
[1-2] fimr Kristr setti fastan frið meðal láðs ok himna ‘nimble Christ established firm peace between earth and heavens’: This event is not directly paralleled in any other version of the Sunday List. It may be an oblique reference to the Fall of Lucifer described in Isa. XIV.12-20.
