“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 .

“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…”

“ܘܟܕ ܣܠܩܬ ܢܦܫܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܆ ܩܪܒ ܗܘܐ ܡܪܪܩܠܘܣ܆ ܟܕ ܒܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܐܬܡܠܟ܆ ܘܐܚܬܗ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܡܢ ܙܩܝܦܐ

“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.”

“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.”
