“122. I counsel you, Loddfáfnir, if you’ll take my advice, you’ll profit if you learn it, it’ll do you good if you remember it: You should never exchange words with someone who won’t see reason.

Ráðum’k þér, [Loddfáfnir, at þú ráð nemir, njóta mundu ef þú nemr,þér munu góð ef þú getr:]Orðum skiptaþú skalt aldregivið ósvinna apa.”

“127. I counsel you, Loddfáfnir, if you’ll take my advice, you’ll profit if you learn it, it’ll do you good if you remember it: When you recognize evil, call it evil, and give your enemies no peace. Ráðum’k þér, [Loddfáfnir, at þú ráð nemir, njóta mundu ef þú nemr,þér munu góð ef þú getr:]Hvar’s þú bǫl kannt, kveðu þat bǫlvi at, ok gef-at þínum fjándum frið.”

“[13] “There’s always a better choice than cowardice, if you have business to take care of. One day long ago my life was already shaped, and my fate was fixed.”
