"ܘܦܩܕܬ ܠܟܘܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܓܒܪ̈ܐ ܘܠܢ̈ܫܐ ܕܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܥܘܗܕܢܐ ܕܫܟܚܬܗ ܕܙܩܝܦܐ. ܟܠ ܫܢܐ ܒܫܢܐ ܟܡܐ ܕܚܝܝܢ. ܘܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܨܠܝܒܐ ܘܥܗܕܝܢ ܠܗ. ܬܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܬܐ ܥܡ ܡܪܝܡ ܛܘܒܢܝܬܐ ܝܠܕܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ."1 "Et elle ordonna à tous ceux qui croient dans le Christ, hommes et femmes, de faire mémoire de la découverte de la Croix d’année en année tant qu’ils vivraient. Et que tous ceux qui connaissent la croix et la commémorent aient une part avec Marie la bienheureuse Mère de Dieu dans les siècles des siècles. Amen."1Editions
