Anon Pét 9VII/2 — Kristr ‘Christ’

Kápharnáum — korni
Kristr sáði þar lista —
borgin bar sú mörgum
blóm ítarlig sóma.
Ágætismenn ýtum
upp runnir þar kunnir
(annan stað má eg inna)
oft þar vóru (stóran).

Kápharnáum, sú borgin bar ítarlig blóm sóma mörgum — Kristr sáði þar korni lista. Ágætismenn, ýtum þar kunnir, vóru oft upp runnir þar; eg má inna annan stóran stað.

Capernaum, that city bore glorious fruits of honour for many — Christ sowed there the seed of virtues. Outstanding persons, who there were well known to men, had often grown up there; I can speak of another great city.
