Stanza 130

Original Old Norse:	Auden & Taylor:	Bellows:	Bray:
Ráðumk þér Loddfáfnir en þú ráð nemir njóta mundu ef þú nemr þér munu góð ef þú getr ef þú vilt þér góða konu kveðja at gamanrúnum ok fá fögnuð af fögru skaltu heita ok láta fast vera leiðisk manngi gott ef getr	With a good woman, if you wish to enjoy Her words and her good will, Pledge her fairly and be faithful to it: Enjoy the good you are given,	I rede thee, Loddfafnir! | and hear thou my rede,- Profit thou hast if thou hearest, Great thy gain if thou learnest: If thou fain wouldst win | a woman's love, And gladness get from her, Fair be thy promise | and well fulfilled; None loathes what good he gets.	129. I counsel thee, Stray-Singer, accept my counsels, they will be thy boon if thou obey'st them, they will work thy weal if thou win'st them: wouldst thou win joy of a gentle maiden, and lure to whispering of love, thou shalt make fair promise, and let it be fast, -- none will scorn their weal who can win it.
Chisholm:	Hollander:	Terry:	Thorpe:
I give you rede Loddfafnir, heed it well! You will use it, if you learn it, and it will do you good if you understand it. If you want a good woman, speak pleasure runes to her, Pledge your troth and hold fast to it if you want joy from her. None loathes good if she gets it.	Hear thou, Loddfafnir, and heed it well, learn it, 'twill lend thee strength, follow it, 'twill further thee: if thee list to gain a good woman's love and all the bliss there be, thy troth shalt pledge, and truly keep: no one tires of the good he gets.	Heed my words, Loddfafnir, listen to my counsel; you'll be better off if you believe me, follow my advice, and you'll fare well: if you want to win a woman's friendship and be in her good graces, make fair promises and fulfill them -- who tires of treasure if he gets it?	132. If thou wilt induce a good woman to pleasant converse, thou must promise fair, and hold to it; no one turns from good if it can be got.
This one is fairly straight forward, or at least it should be. If you want to keep your mate happy, don't lie. Listen to Eleven from Stranger Things, “Friends don't lie”.
