(from the) other at Hlade.

The idiom 'annað mest' (ON 'annat mest') means "second bigest": 'mest'
(superlative of 'mikill'), rather than the 'best' = ON 'bezt'
(superlative of 'góðr').

"It was the second biggest temple in Norway, the other (i.e. the
biggest) being at Lade."
"It was the second biggest temple in Norway aside from the one at Lade."

'vera' "to be, i.e. to stay" is dependent on 'hljóta' rather than the
other way around: "You will get to stay here" (i.e. I grant you leave
to stay here.)
