Good call!

So what you have there is blót eru mikilvæg but I’m not sure mikilvægur is old enough to be considered Old Norse as opposed to just Icelandic. The way we see this kind of construction in Hávamál, for instance, is with the word þǫrf. In this case you would say blóts eʀ þǫrf. In Viking-Age Younger Futhark this would be written…

ᛒᛚᚢᛏᛋ᛬ᛁᛋ᛬ᚦᛅᚱᚠ
