Prologue

"Le souvenir de l’histoire de la vie glorieuse des saints et de tous ceux qui craignent Dieu est abondant et non pas unique pour les amis du Christ, parce qu’il les persuade de porter leur mémoire devant Dieu et qu’il dispose l’âme à l’honneur et à la louange de Dieu."1 "ܡܢ ܕܘܟܪܢ ܬܫܥܝܬܐ ܕܕܘܒܪ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܫܒܝ̈ܚܐ ܕܩܕܝ̈ܫܐ ܘܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܚ̈ܠܝ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܣܒܥܐ ܘܠܐ ܚܕ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܪ̈ܚܡܝ"1

Incipit

"ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܙܒܢ ܒܡܕܝܢܬ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܩܘܢܣܛܝܢܘܦܠܝܣ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܡܝܬܪܐ ܘܕܚܠ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܣܘܢܩܠܛܝܩܐ ܕܒܕܘܒ̈ܪܐ ܡܢ ܫܦܝܪ̈ܐ ܛܒ ܡܨܒܬ ܗܘܐ ܘܠܗܢܐ ܟܣܢܐܦܘܢ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܫܡܐ."1 "Il y avait une fois dans la ville impériale de Constantinople un homme vertueux et craignant Dieu, sénateur, orné d’une belle vie; son nom était Xénophon."1

Explicit

"ܘܬܡܢ ܚܝܐ ܫܪܟܐ ܕܚ̈ܝܘܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܐܦ ܠܡܩܕܡܘܬ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܐܠܗܝܬܐ ܐܫܬܘܝ ܘܪ̈ܐܙܐ ܘ̈ܓܠܝܢܐ ܐܠܗ̈ܝܐ ܚܙܐ ܗܘܐ. ܘܗܟܢܐ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܡܙܕܥܙܥܢܐ ܠܘܬ ܡܪܝܐ ܒܓܠܝܘܬ ܐܦ̈ܐ ܫܢܝ. ܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܫܬܥܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܒܗ̈ܝ ܘܐܚ̈ܝ ܐܝܟ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܫܒܩ ܐܠܗܐ... ܢܫܘܐ ܠܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܪܢ... ܐܡܝܢ."1 "Et il vécut là le reste de sa vie, jusqu’à ce qu’il fut jugé aussi digne de la prescience divine et qu’il vît les mystères et les révélations divines. Et ainsi il quitta ce monde instable pour aller avec confiance vers le Seigneur. Ces choses vous ont été racontées, mes pères et mes frères, pour que vous sachiez que Dieu n’abandonne pas… Que notre Seigneur nous juge dignes… Amen."1
