1 And after three months they (i.e. David and his soldiers) rose up to wage war from the city of the Government, with Makeda his mother and Zion his Lady. And the Levites carried the Tabernacle of the Law, together with the things that appertained to their office, and they marched along with great majesty, and as in times of old when God on Mount Sinai made Zion to come down in holiness to Moses and Aaron, even so did Azariah and 'Elmiyas bear along the Tabernacle of the Law. And the other mighty men of war of Israel marched on the right side of it and on the left, and close to it, and before it and behind it, and although they were beings made of dust they sang psalms and songs of the spirit like the heavenly hosts. And God gave them beautiful voices and marvellous songs, for He was well pleased to be praised by them. And they came from the city of the Government, and encamped at Maya 'Abaw, and on the following morning they laid waste the district of Zawa with Hadeya, for enmity had existed between them from olden time; and they blotted out the people and slew them with he edge of the sword. And they passed on from that place and encamped at Gerra, and here also they laid waste the city of vipers that had the faces of men, and the tails of asses attached to their loins. And [the Queen] returned and encamped in the city of Zion, and they remained therein three months, then their wagons moved on and came to the city of the Government. And in one day they came to the city of Saba, and they laid waste Noba; and from there they camped round about Saba, and they laid it waste as far as the border of Egypt. And the majesty (or, awe) of the King of Ethiopia was so great that the King of Medyam and the King of Egypt caused gifts to be brought unto him, and they came into the city of the Government, and from there they encamped in 'Ab'at, and they waged war on the country of India, and the King of India brought a gift and a present (or, tribute), and himself did homage to the King of Ethiopia. He (i.e. David) waged war wheresoever he pleased; no man conquered him, on the contrary, whosoever attacked him was conquered. And as for those who would have played the spy in his camp, in order to hear some story and relate it in their city, they were unable to run by the wagons, for Zion herself made the strength of the enemy to be exhausted. But King David, with his soldiers, and the armies of his soldiers, and all those who obeyed his word, ran by the wagons without pain or suffering, and without hunger or thirst, and without sweat or exhaustion, and travelled in one day a distance which [usually] took three months to traverse. And they lacked nothing whatsoever of the things which they asked God through Zion the Tabernacle of the Law of God to give them, for He dwelt with her, and His Angel directed her, and she was His habitation. And as for the king who ministered to His pavilion----if he were travelling on any journey, and wished something to be done, everything that he wished for and thought about in his heart, and indicated with his finger, everything [I say] was performed at his word; and everyone feared him. But he feared no one, for the hand of God was with him, and it protected him by day and by night. And he did His Will, and God worked for him and protected him from all evil for ever and ever. Amen. This I found among the manuscripts of the Church of Sophia in Constantinople. And the Archbishops who were there said unto him [Domitius?], "This is what is written from the days of Solomon the King." And Domitius of Antioch said, Yea, that which is written up to the day of the death of Solomon is to be accepted, and that which hath been written by other prophets after his death is to be accepted likewise." ተንሥኡ ፡ ለፀብእ ፡ እምድኅረ ፡ ፫ ፡ አውራኅ ፡ እምነ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ምስፍና ፡ ምስለ ፡ ማክዳ ፡ እሙ ፡ ወጽዮን ፡ እግዝእቱ ፡ ወሌዋዊያን ፡ ይጸውርዋ ፡ ለታቦተ ፡ ሕግ ፡ ምስለ ፡ ንዋየ ፡ ሐቢቶሙ ፡ ወእንዘ ፡ የሐውሩ ፡ በብዙኅ ፡ ግርማ ፡ ከመ ፡ አሜሃ ፡ በደብረ ፡ ሲና ፡ አመ ፡ ያወርዳ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ እምሰማያት ፡ ለጽዮን ፡ በቅድስና ፡ ኀበ ፡ ሙሴ ፡ ወአሮን ፡ ወከማሁ ፡ ይጸውርዋ ፡ ለታቦተ ፡ ሕግ ፡ አዛርያስ ፡ ወኤልሚያስ ፡ ወባዕዳን ፡ ደቂቀ ፡ ኀይለ ፡ እስራኤል ፡ እንዘ ፡ የሐውሩ ፡ በየማና ፡ ወበፀጋማ ፡ በገቦሃ ፡ በፍጽማ ፡ ወበኳላሃ ፡ እንዘ ፡ ይሴብሑ ፡ ወይዜምሩ ፡ እንዘ ፡ መሬታዊያን ፡ ከመ ፡ ኀይለ ፡ ሰማያዊያን ፤ ወወሀቦሙ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ቃለ ፡ ሠናየ ፡ ወዜማ ፡ መንክረ ፡ እስመ ፡ ሠምረ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ከመ ፡ ይሴባሕ ፡ ቦሙ ። ወበጽሑ ፡ እምሀገረ ፡ ምስፍና ፡ ተዐየኑ ፡ በማየ ፡ አበው ፡ ወበነግህ ፡ አጥፍእዋ ፡ ለብሔረ ፡ ዛዉ ፡ ምስለ ፡ ሐድያ ፤ እስመ ፡ ጋእዘ ፡ ባ ፡ ምስሌሆሙ ፡ እምቀዳሚ ፡ ወእምዝ ፡ አጥፍእዎሙ ፡ ወቀተልዎሙ ፡ በአፈ ፡ ኀጺን ። ወተኃለፉ ፡ እምህየ ፡ ወተዐየኑ ፡ ጌርሳ ፤ ወካዕበ ፡ አጥፍኡ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ሰባድዕት ፡ እለ ፡ ገጾሙ ፡ ሰብእ ፡ ወዘነበ ፡ አድግ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ሐቌሆሙ ። ወገብአት ፡ ወተዐየነት ፡ ውስተ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ጽዮን ፡ ወነበሩ ፡ ባቲ ፡ እስከ ፡ ፫ ፡ አውራኅ ፡ ወአንሥኡ ፡ ሰረገላቲሆሙ ፡ ወበጽሑ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ምስፍና ፤ ወእምህየ ፡ በአሐቲ ፡ ዕለት ፡ በጽሑ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ሳባ ፡ ወአጥፍእዋ ፡ ለኖባ ፡ ወእምህየ ፡ ተዐየኑ ፡ ሳባ ፡ ወአጥፍኡ ፡ እስከ ፡ ደወለ ፡ ግብጽ ። ወኮነ ፡ ግርማ ፡ ዐቢይ ፡ ለንጉሠ ፡ ኢትዮጵያ ፡ እስከ ፡ ያመጽኡ ፡ አምኃ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ምድያም ፡ ወንጉሠ ፡ ግብጽ ። ወበጽሑ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ሀገረ ፡ ምስፍና ፡ ወእምህየ ፡ ተዐየኑ ፡ አብዓት ፡ ወፀብኡ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ባሕረ ፡ ህንደኬ ፤ ወአብአ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ህንደኬ ፡ አምኃ ፡ ወጋዳ ፡ ወሰገደ ፡ ለሊሁ ፡ ለንጉሠ ፡ ኢትዮጵያ ። ወኀበ ፡ ኵሉ ፡ ዘፈቀደ ፡ ወፀብአ ፡ አልቦ ፡ ዘይመውኦ ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ዘይመውእ ፡ ለሊሁ ፤ ወእለ ፡ ያስተሓይጽዎ ፡ በውስተ ፡ ትዕይንቱ ፡ ከመ ፡ ይስምዑ ፡ ዜና ፡ ወይንግሩ ፡ ለሀገሮሙ ፡ ወኢይክሉ ፡ ረዊጸ ፡ በሰረገላ ፡ እስመ ፡ ለሊሃ ፡ ጽዮን ፡ ታደክም ፡ ኀይሎሙ ፡ ለፀር ። ወንጉሥሰ ፡ ዳዊት ፡ ምስለ ፡ ሰራዊቱ ፡ ወሰራዊተ ፡ ሰራዊቱ ፡ ወኵሎሙ ፡ እለ ፡ ይትኤዘዙ ፡ በቃሉ ፡ ይረውጹ ፡ በሰረገላ ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ደዌ ፡ ወሕማም ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ረኃብ ፡ ወጽምእ ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ሃፍ ፡ ወድካም ፡ ይበጽሑ ፡ በአሐቲ ፡ ዕለት ፡ መጠነ ፡ ምሕዋረ ፡ ፫ ፡ አውራኅ ፤ ወአልቦ ፡ ወኢምንተኒ ፡ ዘየኀጥኡ ፡ እምዘ ፡ ሰአሉ ፡ በኀበ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ በውስተ ፡ ጽዮን ፡ ታቦተ ፡ ሕጉ ፡ ለእግዚኣብሔር ፡ እስመ ፡ ለሊሁ ፡ ይነብር ፡ ምስሌሃ ፡ ወመልአኩ ፡ ይሜግባ ፡ ወማኅደሩ ፡ ለሊሃ ፤ ወለንጉሥ ፡ ዘይትለአክ ፡ ኀበ ፡ ደብተራሁ ፡ ለእመ ፡ ሖረ ፡ በኵሉ ፡ ፍኖቱ ፡ ወበገቢረ ፡ ፈቃዱ ፡ ይትገበር ፡ ኵሉ ፡ ዘፈቀደ ፡ ወዘኀለየ ፡ በልቡ ፡ ወዘአንጸረ ፡ በአጽባዕቱ ፡ ኵሉ ፡ ይትገበር ፡ በቃሉ ፡ ወኵሉ ፡ ይፈርሆ ፤ ወውእቱሰ ፡ አልቦ ፡ ዘይፈርህ ፡ እስመ ፡ እደ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ምስሌሁ ፡ እንተ ፡ ተዐቅቦ ፡ ሌሊተ ፡ ወመዐልተ ፡ እስመ ፡ ገብረ ፡ ፈቃዶ ፡ ወውእቱኒ ፡ ይገብር ፡ ሎቱ ፡ ወየዐቅቦ ፡ እምኵሉ ፡ እኩይ ፡ ለዓለመ ፡ ዓለም ፡ አሜን ፠ ዘንተ ፡ ረከብኩ ፡ እመጻሕፍት ፡ ዘቤተ ፡ ሶፍያ ፡ ዘቍስጥንጥንያ ። ወይቤልዎ ፡ እለ ፡ ህየ ፡ ሊቃነ ፡ ጳጳሳት ፡ አማንኬ ፡ ዝንቱ ፡ ዘተጽሕፈ ፡ እመዋዕለ ፡ ሰሎሞን ፡ ንጉሥ ። ወይቤ ፡ ድማትዮስ ፡ ዘአንጾኪያ ፡ እወ ፡ ይመስል ፡ እስከ ፡ ዕለተ ፡ ሞቱ ፡ ለሰሎሞን ፡ ዘተጽሕፈ ፡ ወእምድኅረ ፡ ሞቱሰ ፡ ለሰሎሞን ፡ እምባዕዳን ፡ ነቢያት ፡ ዘተጽሕፈ ፡ አምሳሉ ፠ ፠ ፠
