Moses the prophet gave the law of circumcision to the Nation of Israel, and Our Lord Himself came and perfected the mystery of the prophecy. | ܡܘܽܫܶܐ ܢܒܺܝܳܐ ܣܳܡ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܆ ܓܙܘܽܪܬܳܐ ܠܥܰܡܳܐ ܕܒܶܝܬ ܐܺܝܣܪܳܐܶܝܠ ܆ ܘܡܳܪܰܢ ܐܶܬܳܐ ܗܘܽ ܒܰܩܢܘܽܡܶܗ ܆ ܘܫܰܡܠܺܝ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܕܰܢܒܺܝܘܽܬܳܐ ܀ |
All you nations, glorify the Lord who underwent circumcision according to the law. And all peoples, glorify Him who perfected the mystery of the prophecy. | ܫܰܒܰܚܘ ܠܡܳܪܝܳܐ ܟܽܠܟܘܽܢ ܥܰܡ̱̈ܡܶܐ ܆ ܕܰܥܠ ܠܰܓܙܘܽܪܬܳܐ ܐܰܝܟ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܆ ܘܫܰܒ̈ܚܳܝܗ̱ܝ ܟܽܠܗ̈ܶܝܢ ܐܶܡ̈ܘܳܬܳܐ ܆ ܕܫܰܡܠܺܝ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܕܰܢܒܺܝܘܽܬܳܐ ܀ |
Blessed is Christ, who gave the Church the glorious mystery of baptism. Instead of the old laws, truth shines in synagogues. | ܒܪܺܝܟ ܡܫܺܝܚܳܐ ܕܝܰܗ̱ܒ ܠܳܗ̇ ܠܥܺܕܬܳܐ ܆ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܫܒܺܝܚܳܐ ܕܡܰܥܡܘܽܕܺܝܬܳܐ ܆ ܚܠܳܦ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܕܥܰܬܺܝ̈ܩܳܬܳܐ ܆ ܫܪܳܪܳܐ ܢܳܨܰܚ ܒܰܟ̈ܢܘܽܫܳܬܳܐ ܀ |
Hello, thank you for the translation. A related short question if I may. How do Maronites greet each other during the Christmas season? I say Merry Christmas, do Maronites say Blessed Season of the Glorious Birth of Our Lord? This would sound so much more specific than Merry Christmas!
