Prologue

ܢܐܬܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܠܬܫܥܝܬܐ ܕܢܨܚܢ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܛܘܒܢܐ ܦܘܠܘܣ. ܗܢܐ ܕܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܠܐܝ ܐܝܟ ܡܠܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܠܠ ܒܗ: ܘܪܗܛܗ ܫܠܡ: ܘܬܫܡܫܬܗ ܢܛܪ: ܘܚܠܦ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܘܩܝܐ ܕܕܡܗ ܐܬܐܫܕ ܠܬܪܥܘܬܐ ܕܚܠܦ ܡܪܥܝܬܗ... 1
Let us therefore approach the story of the great deeds of the blessed Paul, the one who more than them all labored, as the word of the Spirit that spoke in him . . . 1
Venons-en donc à l’histoire des hauts faits du bienheureux Paul, lui qui, plus que tous, peina comme parole de l’Esprit qui parla en lui; il acheva sa course, garda son ministère, et pour notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, il répandit la libation de son sang en vue de réconcilier son troupeau… 1

Incipit (Opening Line)

ܥܒܪܝܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܡܝܢ. ܦܪܝܫܝܐ ܒܗܪܣܝܣ ܕܝܠܗ. ܘܩܕܡ ܪ̈ܓܠܘܗܝ ܕܓܡܠܝܐܝܠ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܘܪܕܝܐ ܒܢܡܘܣܐ ܐܬܕܪܫ ܗܘܐ. 1
He was a Hebrew, from the tribe of Benjamin, of the sect of the Pharisees. He was trained in the law before the feet of the cultivated teacher Gamaliel. 1
Il était donc juif, de la tribu de Benjamin, de la secte des Pharisiens. Il étudia la loi chez le savant docteur Gamaliel. 1

Explicit (Closing Line)

ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܣܓܝܐܘܬܐ ܕܬܘܠܡܕܗܘܢ ܐܬܬܙܝܥ ܚܣܡܐ ܒܝܗܘ̈ܕܝܐ ܨܠܘܒ̈ܐ: ܘܡܓܢܒܐܝܬ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܦܣܩܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܐܝܠܢ̈ܐ ܗܢܿܘܢ. ܘܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܫܘܐ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܥܠܡܐ ܠܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܐܣܝܘܬܐ ܕܡܢܗܘܢ: ܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܝܥ̣ܘ ܐܝܠܢ̈ܐ ܗܢܿܘܢ. ܗܠܝܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܬܫܥܝܬܗ ܕܡܪܝ ܦܘܠܘܣ... ܐܝܢ ܘܐܡܝܢ. 1
And thus from the multitude of their disciples, jealousy from the Jews, the crucifiers, was aroused, and secretly at night they cut down these trees. 1
À tel point que le grand nombre de leurs disciples excita la jalousie des juifs crucifieurs, qui coupèrent ces arbres furtivement pendant la nuit. Et parce que le monde n’est pas digne du don de la guérison qu’ils procurent, ils n’ont pas repoussé. Telle est donc l’histoire de Mâr Paul… Oui, amen. 1
