The Seamus Heaney translation is my favorite.

the original Old English :read-theory:

Tolkien has an interpretation with commentary that's worth checking out, specifically because the translation is not excellent but moreso meant to be treated like notes for a course on the poem. He interprets the theme as "all men die, all accounts of men die" and sees it as more of a work of art than a historical account, concluding that its value is derived from the philosophical takeaways about mortality and not in painting a picture of Germanic society. And it also bears a striking resemblance to Lord of the Rings.
