Are any of our resident Scandinavians capable of translating the Icelandic sagas? Namely this passage from the Ljósvetninga Saga

Brandur fór vestur með Haraldi konungi til Englands. Og er þeir gengu upp í seinasta sinni þá hafði Brandur einn brynstakk en allt annað lið konungs hafði eftir látið brynjur að skipum. Konungur sjálfur átti brynju þá er Emma hét og tók hún á mitt bein og var svo sterk að aldrei festi vopn á. Brandur bauð konungi brynstakk sinn.

Any help would be appreciated.

From Law and Literature in Medieval Iceland: Ljosvetninga Saga' and 'Valla-Ljots Saga' (Stanford University Press) – Hardcover (1989) by Theodore Murdock Andersson, William Miller, III

"Brand followed King Harald to England. And when they had made their last landing, Brand alone had on his chain mail, but the rest of the king's army had left their mailshirts behind on the ships. The king himself had a mailshirt called Emma that reached to the knees and was so strong that no weapon could bite into it. Brand offered the king his mailshirt."

So nothing about whitewashing, painting, or otherwise coloring the byrnie in this passage? I guess we'll have to keep looking for Russ' example.
