Prologue

ܐܚܝ̈: ܒܟܠ ܐܬܪ ܘܒܟܠ ܡܕܝܢܐ ܣܗ̈ܕܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܫܬܠܚܘ: ܕܢܣܒܪܘܢ ܩܝܡܬܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝ̈ܬܐ. 1
Mes frères, en toute région et en toute ville les martyrs de Dieu ont été envoyés pour annoncer la résurrection du Christ d’entre les morts. 1

Incipit (Opening Line)

ܟܕ ܓܝܪ ܕܘܩܝܘܣ ܡܠܟܐ ܥܘܠܐ ܐܡܠܟ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܪ̈ܗܡܝܐ: ܪܕܘܦܝܐ ܩܫܝܐ ܐܩܝܡ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܟܠܗ ܥܡܐ ܕܟܪ̈ܣܛܝܢܐ. 1

Explicit (Closing Line)

ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܬܟܬܫܘ ܒܐܓܘܢܐ ܘܐܬܓܡܪܘ ܘܐܬܟܠܠܘ: ܘܗܐ ܡܢܗܪܝܢ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܟܠܗ ܐܝܟ ܟܘ̈ܟܒܐ ܕܒܪܩܝܥܐ. ܘܡܛܠ ܕܫܛܘ ܘܐܣܠܝܘ ܟܠܡܕܡ: ܘܐܘܕܝܘ ܘܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ: ܗܐ ܡܬܢܨܚ ܕܘܟܪܢܗܘܢ ܒܐܪܒܥ ܦܢ̈ܝܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ. ܕܒܨ̈ܠܘܬܗܘܢ... ܐܡܝܢ. 1
Et ils luttèrent ainsi au combat, ils furent conduits à la perfection et couronnés; et voilà qu’ils brillent dans le monde comme des étoiles au firmament. Et parce qu’ils ont tout méprisé et rejeté pour confesser et croire dans le Christ Jésus qui est Dieu, voilà que leur mémoire est célébrée aux quatre coins du monde. Qu’à leur prière… Amen. 1
