"ܒܝܪܚ ܐܒ ܕܫܢܬ ܫܬܡܐܐ ܘܥܣܪܝܢ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܟܣܢܕܪܘܣ ܡܩܕܘܢ: ܒܗܘܦܛܝܐ ܕܠܝܩܢܝܣ ܘܕܩܘܣܛܢܛܝܢܣ: ܕܐܝܬܝܗܿ ܫܢܬܐ ܕܐܬܝܠܕ ܒܗܿ: ܒܐܣܛܪܛܝܓܘܬܐ ܕܝܘܠܝܣ ܘܕܒܩܪ: ܒܝܘܡܝ ܩܘܢܐ ܐܦܣܩܘܦܐ ܕܐܘܪܗܝ: ܥܒܕ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܗܘ ܠܝܩܢܝܣ ܪܕܘܦܝܐ ܠܥܕܬܐ: ܘܠܥܡܐ ܟܠܗ ܕܟܪ̈ܣܛܝܢܐ."1 "Au mois d’Âb de l’an 620 du règne d’Alexandre de Macédoine, sous le consulat de Licinius et de Constantin, qui est l’année où il est né, sous les stratèges Julius et Baqar, aux jours de Qônâ évêque d’Édesse, ce Licinius déclencha une persécution contre l’Église et tout le peuple des chrétiens."1Explicit
"ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܝܩܕ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܒܗ ܥܪܘܒܬܐ ܒܬܪܝܐ ܒܝܪܚ ܐܝܠܘܠ: ܒܝܘܡܐ ܗܘܿ ܕܐܫܬܡܥ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܒܗ: ܕܩܘܣܛܢܛܝܢܘܣ ܪܒܐ ܫܪܝ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܕܢܦܘܩ ܡܢ ܓܘ ܐܣܦܢܝܐ: ܕܢܐܬܐ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܠܪܗܘܡܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܐܝܛܠܝܐ... ܐܢܐ ܬܐܘܦܝܠܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܟܦܪܬ ܗܘܝܬ ܒܝܪܬܘܬܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܕܐܒܗܝ̈: ܘܐܘܕܝܬ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ: ܐܬܒܛܠ ܠܝ ܘܟܬܒܬ ܦܚܡܐ ܕܗܘܦܡܢ̈ܡܛܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܚܒܝܒ... ܘܚܠܐ ܕܪ̈ܓܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܣܗ̈ܕܐ ܗܠܝܢ: ܕܩܒܠܬ ܗܘܝܬ ܟܕ ܪܗܿܛ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܪܓܠܗܘܢ ܒܥܕܢܐ ܕܢܦܿܩܝܢ ܗܘ̣ܘ ܡܬܟܠܠܝܢ: ܢܫܒܘܩ ܠܝ ܕܟܦܪܬ ܗܘܝܬ ܒܗ. ܘܢܘܕܐ ܒܝ ܩܕܡ ܣܓܘܕܘ̈ܗܝ: ܕܐܘܕܝܬ ܒܗ ܡܟܝܠ. ܒܫܘܠܡܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܣܪ̈ܝܢ ܘܫܒܥܐ. ܕܫܐܠܗ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܿܢܐ ܠܚܒܝܒ. ܝܗ̣ܒ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܐܦܦܣܝܣ ܕܡܿܘܬܐ ܕܝܩܕܢܐ ܕܢܘܪܐ."1 "Le jour où il fut brûlé était le vendredi deux Éloul, jour où on apprit que Constantin le Grand avait commencé à quitter l’intérieur de l’Espagne pour venir à la ville de Rome en Italie…Moi Théophile, qui ai renié le mauvais héritage de mes pères et ai reconnu le Christ, j’ai eu soin d’écrire un exemplaire de ces mémoires de Habîb…Et que la poussière des pieds de ces martyrs, que j’ai reçue en courant derrière eux quand ils furent emmenés vers le couronnement, me pardonne à moi qui l’ai renié, et qu’elle me reconnaisse devant ses adorateurs, moi qui l’ai désormais reconnu. Et après l’avoir interrogé ving-sept fois le juge prononça contre Habîb la sentence de la mort par le feu."1Editions
