Incipit (Opening Line)

“ܩܘܠܣܗܘܢ ܕܛܠܝ̈ܐ ܡܩܒܝ̈ܐ ܡܛܠ ܢܨܝܚܘܬܐ ܕܬܟܬܘܫܝ̈ܗܘܢ ܡܣ̣ܬܒܪ ܡܿܢ ܕܡܠܘ̈ܐ ܡܫܪ̈ܬܚܐ ܕܣܘܟ̈ܠܐ ܝܗܿܒ ܠܗܿܢܘܢ ܕܐܡܿܪܝܢ.” 1

“L’éloge des jeunes Macchabées, à cause de la splendeur de leurs combats semble donner à ceux qui en parleront d’abondantes matières à penser.” 1

Explicit (Closing Line)

“ܘܠܘܬ ܣܒ̣ܪܐ ܢܨܝܚܐ ܕܩ̣ܝܡܬܐ ܠܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܥܝ̈ܢܐ ܠܡ̣ܚܪ: ܗܿܘ ܕܒܙܠܝܩ̈ܘܗܝ ܚܢܢ ܐܬܢܗܿܪܢܢ: ܒܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܘܒܪܚܡ̣ܬ ܐܢܫ̣ܘܬܐ ܕܗܿܘ ܕܠܗܕܐ ܩ̣ܪܐ ܠܢ. ܕܠܗ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ.” 1

“Et ils n’ont pas d’yeux pour regarder le splendide espoir de la résurrection, par les rayons duquel nous avons été illuminés, par la grâce et l’amour pour les hommes de celui qui nous y a appelés. À lui la gloire pour les siècles des siècles. Amen.” 1
