Anon Lil 70VII/1 — mun ‘will’

Enn mun koma í öðru sinni
allsvaldandi kóngr að gjalda
seggja ferðum sínar gerðir
sómaörr á efsta dómi.
Svá geisar þá eldr og eisa
jörð og fjöll, að í heimi öllum
eigi finz hier upp ór skýjum
óbrunnið og niðr að grunnum.

Enn mun allsvaldandi kóngr koma, sómaörr, í öðru sinni á efsta dómi að gjalda ferðum seggja gerðir sínar. Þá geisar eldr og eisa svá jörð og fjöll, að í öllum heimi finz eigi óbrunnið hier upp ór skýjum og niðr að grunnum.

Again the all-ruling king will come, generous with honour, a second time, at the Last Judgement, to repay crowds of men for their deeds. Then fire and flames will so rage over earth and mountains, that in all the world there is nothing unburned there up above the clouds and down on the ground.
