Prologue

ܬܫܥܝܬܐ ܕܪ̈ܚܡܘܗܝ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܬܬܒܥܢܢ ܠܡܫܬܥܝܘ. ܘܠܝܬ ܒܢ ܚܝܠܐ ܕܣܦܩ ܠܡܡܠܝܘ ܦܘܪܥܢܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܬܒܥܢܢ. ܕܠܡ ܗܿܝ ܕܙܥܘܪܐ ܡܫܘܚܬܢ: 1
It was demanded that we tell the story of the friends of Christ, and we do not have the power to fulfill this request sufficiently, for the smallness is our measure . . . 1
On nous a réclamé de raconter l’histoire des amis du Christ, et nous n’avons pas assez de force pour nous acquitter de ce qui nous a été réclamé, car la petitesse est notre mesure… 1

Incipit (Opening Line)

ܘܟܕ ܓܝܪ ܒܣ̣ܐ ܒܪܢܫܢ ܩܕܡܝܐ: ܘܥ̣ܒܪ ܥܠ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ: ܘܐܬܓܠܙ ܡܢ ܗܢܿܘܢ ܛܘ̈ܒܐ ܡܫܒܚ̈ܐ. 1
For when the first man disdained and acted against the commandment of God, and was deprived of glorious things . . . 1
Quand en effet notre premier homme eut avec mépris agi contre le commandement de Dieu et qu’il eut été privé de ces biens glorieux… 1

Explicit (Closing Line)

ܘܟܕ ܣܠܩܬ ܢܦܫܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܆ ܩܪܒ ܗܘܐ ܡܪܪܩܠܘܣ܆ ܟܕ ܒܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܐܬܡܠܟ܆ ܘܐܚܬܗ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܡܢ ܙܩܝܦܐ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܫܬܡܠܝ ܟܘܠܠܗ ܕܜܘܒܢܐ ܡܪܥ ܫܡܥܘܢ 1
And when the soul of the saint arose, Marcellus approached, without having been advised by anyone. He brought Simeon down from the cross . . . and in this way the crowning of Mar Simon was completed. 1
Et quand l’âme du saint se fut élevée, Marcellus s’approcha, sans avoir pris conseil de personne, et il descendit Simon de la croix… Et ainsi fut achevé le couronnement du bienheureux Mâr Simon… Amen. 1
