Snorri-Edda

Old Norse, ed. Faulkes, p. 25,1

Þá kvað Þórr þetta:
(72) ‘“Vaxattu nú, Vimur,
alls mik þik vaða tíðir
jǫtna garða í;
veiztu ef þú vex
at þá vex mér ásmegin
jafnhátt upp sem himinn.”

English, tr. Brodeur, 1916, p. 122,1

Then Thor sang this:
Wax thou not now, Vimur,
For I fain would wade thee
Into the Giants’ garth:
Know thou, if thou waxest,
Then waxeth God-strength in me
As high up as the heaven.

Norwegian, tr. Holtsmark, p. 111,1

Da kvad Tor dette: «Voks ikke nå, Vimur
for va deg vil jeg over til jotners gårder,
vit: om du vokser da vokser min åsamakthøyt til selve himmelen.
