Passíusálmar <Icelandic> / Passion Hymns (1666) is a collection of 50 poems by Hallgrímur Pétursson.
Abstract
"Historia pínunnar og dauðans Drottins vors Jesú Kristí, með hennar sérlegustu lærdóms-, áminningar- og huggunargreinum, ásamt bænum og þakkargjörðum, í sálmum og söngvísum með ýmsum tónum samsett og skrifuð anno 1659."
The Hymns describe the Passion of Jesus from his arrival to Gethsemane to his death and burial.
The Hymns immediately became a very popular expression of Icelandic religious life. They have been sung and read by Icelanders during Lent for centuries and have been published in Iceland more often than any other piece of writing.

Translations
Translated into English in 1913, and then in the 1950s by Arthur Charles Gook (first published in 1966).
Adaptations
Set to music by several Icelandic composers, including Þorkell Sigurbjörnsson, Jón Hlöðver Áskelsson, and Sigurður Sævarsson.
