Ansan, bhí ardfhormad ag na ríthibh lena chéile féachaint cé hé an rí a gheobhadh moladh ó Bhrian nó cé hé a gheobhadh cáineadh; nó, dá mba ná cáinfí éinne, cé ba mhó a gheobhadh den mholadh. Bhí an formhad san idir na fearaibh chomh mór díreach agus a bhí sé idir na ríthibh, i dtreo nár ghá dos na ríthibh puinn de dhua na bhfear a dh’fháil chun iad a ghríosadh, mar go rabhadar féin ag gríosadh a chéile chomh dian agus dob fhéidir é. Ní raibh éinne do thuig an méid sin ní b’fhearr ná mar a thuig Brian é, agus ní raibh éinne dob fhearr a dh’fhéadfadh toradh a bhaint as ná mar a dh’fhéad Brian toradh a bhaint as.



It may be obvious, but does "toradh a bhaint as" mean "to get something out of it"? I don't see why that meaning fits the context.

"Toradh" is a fruit or product, and therefore a profit.

As a good general, Brian can profit from encouraging the kings and their troops to spur each other on by playing on their envy.
