49.Powerful Head-Veil said:

“Three great tribal rivers

run across the Earth

(they are) the Kin-Seeker´s maidens[fates]; They are hide-walkers/fortune-bringers who dwell in the world

although they were raised among Devourers.”77

49.Vafþrvðnir qvaþ:

„Þriar þioðár

falla þorp yfir

meyia Mꜹgþrasiss;

hamingior einar

þęr er i heimi ero,

þo þęr meþ iotnom alaz.“

50. Óðinn said:

“Much have I travelled, much have I tried much have I tested the powers;

Who among the Aesir

will rule the realms of the gods

when the fires of the Sooted One are quenched?”

50. Oþinn qvaþ:

„Fiolþ ec for,

fiolþ ec freistaþac,

fiolþ ec vm reynda regin: Hverir raþa ęsir

eignom goða,

þa er slocnar Svrta logi?“

51.Powerful Head-Veil said:

“Expanding Warrior and the Choice

shall build the divine sanctuaries

when the fires of the Sooted One are quenched Power and Greatness

shall own the Grinder [Thor´s hammer] when Weapon-Quaker´s strifeis over.”78

52.Óðinn said:

“Much have I travelled, much have I tried much have I tested the powers;

What shall end the life of Spirit

when the powers are torn asunder?”

51. Vafþrvðnir qvaþ: „Viþarr oc Vali

byggia vé goða,

þa er slocnar Svrta logi; Móþi oc Magni

scolo Miollni hafa

Vingnis at vigþroti.“

52. Oþinn qvaþ:

„Fiolþ ec for,

fiolþ ec freistaþac,

fiolþ ec vm reynda regin: hvat verþr Oðni at aldrlagi, þa er vm rivfaz regin?“
