Prologue

"Les foules dans les villes ne refusent pas à des gouvernants de ce monde dont l’administration a été de courte durée de les représenter en image ou en statue."1 "ܟܢ̈ܫܐ ܕܒܡܕܝ̈ܢܬܐ ܠܐ ܛܠܡܝܢ ܡܕܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܕܫܠܝ̈ܛܢܐ ܕܒܗܢܐ ܥܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܕܢܨܘܪܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܝܘܩܢܐ ܐܘ ܒܨܘܪܬܐ."1

Incipit

"ܗܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܐܢܐ ܕܚܟܡܬܐ ܟܕ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܛܠܝܐ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܡܢ ܐܒ̈ܗܘܗܝ ܠܕܝܪܐ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܢܬܪܕܐ ܒܟܠܗܿ ܡܛܟܣܘܬܐ ܘܢܟܦܘܬܐ."1 "Ce vase de sagesse, quand il était encore un petit enfant, ses parents le confièrent au monastère pour qu’il soit instruit dans la règle et dans la chasteté."1

Explicit

"ܘܡܢ ܡܚܣܢ ܐܬܩܒܪ ܘܐܬܥܦܝ ܛܘܒܢܐ ܒܬܫܡ̈ܫܬܐ ܘܒܙܡ̈ܝܪܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܠܘܗܝ ܡ̈ܬܬܢܝܢ ܗܘ̈ܝ ܡܢ ܟܗ̈ܢܐ ܘܡܫܡ̈ܫܢܐ ܘܥܡܐ ܟܠܗ ܕܐܬܪܐ. ܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܚܙܬܐ ܘܥܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܘܒܪ̈ܐ ܘܥܠ ܗܢܐ ܫܪܪܐ ܕܗܢܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܬܚܬܡ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܢܒܝܐ. ܕܛܘܒܗܝ ܠܥܡܐ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܘܛܘܒܗܝ ܠܥܡܐ ܕܐܝܟ ܗܢܐ ܩܡ ܒܗ. ܟܠܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܟܚܕܐ... ܐܡܝܢ."1 "Et difficilement le bienheureux fut enterré et enseveli avec des services et des chants divins récités sur lui par des prêtres, des diacres et tout le peuple du pays. Sur cette vue, sur cette vie et sur la vérité de cet homme que soit marquée la parole du prophète «Heureux un tel peuple, heureux le peuple où s’est levé un tel homme.» Nous tous, ensemble,… Amen."1
