Þorlákr beiddi Þránd eftir skiptit at hann mundi hafa heimabólit, en hann lausafé meira, en Þrándr vildi þat eigi.
Þorlákr asked Þrándr after the drawing of lots if he could have the homestead, and then he could have more moveable goods, but Þrándr refused.
Fór Þorlákr þá í burt ok fekk sér annan bústað þar í eyjunum.
Þorlákr then went away and acquired for himself another dwelling-place in the islands.
Þrándr selda á leigu landit í Götu mörgum mönnum ok tók leigu sem mesta, en hann réðsk til skips um sumarit ok hafði lítinn kaupeyri ok fór til Noregs ok hafði boejarsetu um vetrinn ok þótti jafnan myrkr í skapi.
Þrándr rented out the land in Gata to many people and got a lot of rent, but he sailed away in a ship in the summer taking a small cargo with him and went to Norway and dwelt in a town in the winter and was continually in a dark mood.
Þá réð fyrir Noregi Haraldr gráfeldr.
At that time Haraldr Greyskin ruled Norway.
Um sumarit eftir fór Þrándr með byrðingsmönnum suðr til Danmerkr ok kom á Haleyri um sumarit.
Next summer Þrándr travelled south to Denmark with some merchant seamen, and arrived in Haleyri while it was still summer.
Þar var þá fjölmenni sem mest, ok svo er sagt, at þar kømr mest fjölmenni hingat á Norðurlönd meðan stendr markaðrinn.
There was a great multitude there; as it is said, the greatest crowd flocks in the Northern lands flocks thither while there is a market.
Þá réð fyrir Danmörk Haraldr konungr Gormsson er kallaðr var blátönn.
At that time Haraldr Gormsson, known as Bluetooth, ruled Denmark.
Haraldr konungr var á Haleyri um sumarit ok fjölmenni mikit með hánum.
King Haraldr was in Haleyri in the summer and a great crowd of people was with him.
