I have had quite a lot of difficulty with this any Critique welcome

Þorgeir mælti til Hildigunnar: "Þessi hönd skal þér sýna Gunnar dauðan í
kveld."

Thorgeir spoke to Hildigun "this hand shall show to you Gunnar's death tonight"

"En eg get," segir hún, "að þú berir lágt höfuðið af ykkrum fundi."

"But I guess/think" says she "that you bear (it- the hand)  as low as your head when you met  (the last meeting)

Þeir fara fjórir feðgar undan Þríhyrningi og ellefu menn aðrir. Fóru þeir
til Knafahóla og biðu þar.

They went/travelled the four Father and sone (Starkad & Co) out of ThreeHorns and eleven men besides. They went to Knafa Hils and waited there.

Sigurður svínhöfði kom í Sandgil og mælti: "Eg er sendur hingað af Starkaði
og sonum hans að segja þér Egill að þér feðgar farið til Knafahóla að sitja
fyrir Gunnari."

Sigurð Swine-head came to Sandgil and said "I am sent here by Starkad and his sons to tell you to go with your sons to Knafa Hills for (an) ambush on Gunnar

"Hversu margir skyldum vér fara?" segir Egill.

"How many men shall go" says Egil

"Fimmtán með mér," segir Sigurður.

"Fifteen with me" says Sigurð

Kolur mælti: "Nú ætla eg mér í dag að reyna við Kolskegg."

Kol said"Now I decide to prove (myself) with Kolskeg"

"Mjög þykir mér þú ætla þér," segir Sigurður.

"Much I think you decide for yourself" says Sigurð

Egill bað Austmenn sína fara.

Egil told his Easterners to go (along with him)

Þeir kváðust engar sakar eiga við Gunnar "enda þarf hér mikils við," segir
Þórir, "er fjöldi manns skal fara að þremur mönnum."

They declared of themselves to have no quarrel with Gunnar "you need many along" says Thorir "so many men to attack (only) three

Gekk þá Egill í braut og var reiður.

Egil went out side and was furious ( stomped off in a huff)

Húsfreyja mælti þá til Austmannsins: "Illa hefir Guðrún dóttir mín brotið
odd af oflæti sínu og legið hjá þér er þú skalt eigi þora að fylgja mági
þínum og munt þú vera ragur maður," segir hún.

His wife said to the Easterner "My Daughter has badly been humbled (broken her pride) to have lain with you, and you have not dared to follow your Father-in-law, you must be a cowardly man says she

"Fara mun eg," segir hann, "með bónda þínum og mun hvorgi okkar aftur koma."

"I will go " says he "with your husband, but neither of us two will come home"

Síðan gekk hann til Þorgríms félaga síns og mælti: "Tak þú við kistulyklum
mínum því að eg mun þeim eigi lúka oftar.

After (this) he went to Thorgrim  his companion  and spoke "You take the keys to my chests because I shall not want them after (I shall not open them again)

Bið eg að þú eignist slíkt af fé
okkru sem þú vilt en far utan og ætla ekki til hefnda eftir mig.

I invite you to have anything for yourself of our goods/wealth as you wish but sail abroad and do not decide to avenge me

En ef þú
ferð eigi utan þá verður það þinn bani."

But if you do not go away it will cost you your life (it will be your bane)

Austmaðurinn tekur vopn sín og ræðst í flokk með þeim.

The man from the East took up his weapons and joined the others

(joined himself to the company (Z))

62. kafli

Nú er þar til máls að taka að Gunnar ríður austur yfir Þjórsá

Now it is that the story takes (us) to Gunnar riding east over Thjor's River

 En er hann
kom skammt frá ánni syfjaði hann mjög og bað hann þá æja þar. Þeir gerðu
svo. Hann sofnaði fast og lét illa í svefni.

But it is that he was a short way from the river and came over very sleepy and he asked them to rest there.  They did just so.  He fell fast asleep but was restless in sleeping   (dreaming)

Kolskeggur mælti: "Dreymir Gunnar nú."

Kolskegg said " Gunnar is dreamig now"

Hjörtur mælti: "Vekja vildi eg hann."

Hjort said "I wanted to wake him"

"Eigi skal það," segir Kolskeggur, "og skal hann njóta draums síns."

"It shall not be / happen" says Kolskegg "and he may benefit from his dream"

Gunnar lá mjög langa hríð. Hann varp af sér skildinum er hann vaknaði og var
honum orðið heitt mjög.
Gunnar lay (sleeping) for a very long time, he threw of himself his cloak (MM&HP) when he awoke and  he had become very hot (MM& HP)

It has already happened in the saga that a sign of an approaching dream - premonition - is that the  dreamer comes over suddenly sleepy or has a fit of yawning
I have been yawning all morning
