Sámr svarar: 'Tvá kosti geri ek þér, Hrafnkell. Sá annarr, at
þik skal leiða ór garði brott ok þá menn, sem mér líkar, ok vera
drepinn. En með því at þú átt ómegð mikla fyrir at sjá, þá vil
ek þess unna þér, at þú sjáir þar fyrir. Ok ef þú vilt líf þiggja, 595
þá far þú af Aðalbóli með allt lið þitt ok haf þá eina fémuni, er
ek skef þér, ok mun þat harðla lítit, en ek skal taka staðfestu
þína ok mannaforráð allt. Skaltu aldri tilkall veita né þínir
erfingjar. Hvergi skaltu nær vera en fyrir austan Fljótsdalsheiði,
ok máttu nú eiga handsöl við mik, ef þú vilt þenna upp taka.' 600
Hrafnkell mælti: 'Mörgum mundi betr þykkja skjótr dauði
en slíkar hrakningar, en mér mun fara sem mörgum öðrum,
at lífit mun ek kjósa, ef kostr er. Geri ek þat mest sökum sona
minna, því at lítil mun vera uppreist þeira, ef ek dey frá."
Þá er Hrafnkell leystr, ok seldi hann Sámi sjálfdœmi. 605
Sámr skipti Hrafnkeli af fé slíkt, er hann vildi, ok var þat
raunarlítit. Spjót sitt hafði Hrafnkell með sér, en ekki fleira
vápna. Þenna dag forði Hrafnkell sik brott af Aðalbóli ok allt
sitt fólk.
Þorgeirr mælti þá við Sám: 'Eigi veit ek, hví þú gerir þetta. 610
Muntu þessa mest iðrask sjálfr, er þú gefr honum líf.'
Sámr kvað þá svá vera verða.
