The Testament of Our Lord
II. 27
And falling down we worshipped Him, saying, Glory to Thee, O Jesus, Name of light, who didst give us the teaching of Thy commandments, so that we may be like unto Thee, we and all those who hear Thee. And when He spoke to us and taught and commanded us, and showed many loosings® and miracles, He was taken up from us, giving us tranquillity.® John and Peter and Matthew wrote this Testament, and sent [it] in copies from Jerusalem by Dositheus’? and Silas and Magnus and Aquila, whom they chose to send [them] to all dioceses. Amen.
The Second Book of Clement is ended, translated from the Greek to the Syrian language by James the poor, in the year 998 of the Greeks.
