 * Gef oss í dag brauð vort dagligt
 * Ok fyr gefþu oss synþer órar, sem vér fyr gefom þeim er viþ oss hafa misgert
 * And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.

 * jah ni briggais uns in fraistubnjai, ak lausei uns af þamma ubilin;
 * Amen.
 * Leiðd oss eigi í freistni, heldr leys þv oss frá öllu illu.
