Incipit (Opening Line)

ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܪܒܐ ܠܕܚܐܪ ܒܗ: ܕܢܚ ܒܝ ܘܐܢܗܪ ܘܐܬܢܐ ܫܪܒܟ ܢܗܝܪܐܝܬ. 1
Jésus, toi qui es une grande lumière pour celui qui te regarde, brille sur moi, éclaire-moi, que je raconte brillamment ton histoire. 1

Explicit (Closing Line)

ܩܒܠ ܐܢܝܢ ܠܟܬܝܒ̈ܬܐ ܩܘܣܛܢܛܝܢܘܣ: ܘܩܪܐ ܐܢܝܢ ܘܚܕܝ ܘܐܬܦܨܚ ܘܙܡܪ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܘܣܡ ܗܘܐ ܐܦܘ̈ܗܝ ܕܢܐܚܘܕ ܕܐܪܐ ܥܡ ܣܛܢܐ: ܘܠܗܪ̈ܣܝܣ ܢܣܚܘܦ ܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܥܕ̈ܬܐ. ܘܗ ܡܢ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܫܪܝ ܢܨܚ ܒܐܬܠܝܛܘܬܐ: ܨܠܘܬܗ ܬܗܘܐ ܫܘܪܐ ܕܪ̈ܚܡܐ ܠܟܠܗ ܟܢܫܢ. 1
Constantin reçut ces lettres, il les lut et se réjouit, et fut rempli d’allégresse et chanta gloire; il se décida à livrer combat à Satan et à expulser et à faire sortir les hérésies des Églises. Dès lors il s’illustra dans la vaillance; que sa prière soit un mur de miséricorde pour toute notre assemblée. 1
