| Summary | Eternal glory […] Athanasius, Patriarch of Antioch and the rest of the East with God's mercy. Qanāwātī deeded this blessed book in memory of his parents and in order to ask God for recompense and reward. Whosoever changes this endowment in any manner or with any trickery encounters God's wrath and anger. And God will not forgive him any sin. Woe to those who incurs this wrath. This happened and was edited in the month of April in 1706, in the Church of Our Lady in the protected city of Kilis. |
