| 02Agat1    9:16 | | | and rebellion [cf. Ps. 24.4] - who will become  | like  | you and will stand in | 
| 02Agat1    10:9 | | | and especially those who are  | like  | you in idolatry | 
| 02Agat1    10:12 | | | still hot to be poured  | like  | water over his body | 
| 02Agat1    10:15 | | | and who fight against him  | like  | you | 
| 02Agat1    11:10 | | | of those reciting proverbs, that “ | Like  | the arrogant Trdat, who pridefully | 
| 02Agat1    13:20 | | | your holiness [cf. Ps. 101.20; Baruch 2.16], lest we become  | like  | that house which was built | 
| 02Agat1    14:15 | | | for yourself, for no one  | like  | her has ever been found | 
| 02Agat1    15:7 | | | joyfully buys and treasures him  | like  | a precious pearl [cf. Matt. 13.46]; then he | 
| 02Agat1    15:23 | | | the years of her youth  | like  | an armored cuirass [cf. I Thess. 5.8]. She cried | 
| 02Agat1    15:25 | | | the flood through the cross- | like  | wood |

| 02Agat1    17:3 | | | fortified her like Jael and  | like  | Deborah [cf. Judges 4]. He strengthened her to | 
| 02Agat1    17:5 | | | by the Holy Spirit, battled  | like  | a beast and fought like | 
| 02Agat1    17:5 | | | like a beast and fought  | like  | a man. They fought starting |

| 02Agat3    3:3 | | | reeds. Because of the beast- | like  | nature of his way of | 
| 02Agat3    3:5 | | | the mouth in his snout  | like  | face, and in the likeness |

| 02Agat3    4:22 | | | white and their fleeces sparkled  | like  | shining wool as rays flashed | 
| 02Agat3    4:37 | | | descend to the sweet odor [cf. II Cor. 2.15],  | like  | that of a rose-colored | 
| 02Agat3    4:62 | | | that this earth will become  | like  | heaven - the common abode of | 
| 02Agat3    4:67 | | | services of holiness will multiply  | like  | the stars | 
| 02Agat3    7:1 | | | except that he could speak  | like  | a human. The claws of | 
| 02Agat3    7:1 | | | his hands and feet were  | like  | those of a pig; his | 
| 02Agat3    7:1 | | | a pig; his face was  | like  | a snout; he had big | 
| 02Agat3    7:1 | | | snout; he had big tusks  | like  | a huge boar, and his | 
| 02Agat3    7:1 | | | all over with thick bristles  | like  | a hog | 
| 02Agat3    8:7 | | | he had a giant’s strength,  | like  | Hayk |

| 02Agat3    9:3 | | | body along with the tusk- | like  | teeth and snout-like face | 
| 02Agat3    9:3 | | | tusk-like teeth and snout- | like  | face. The thick, bristle-like | 
| 02Agat3    9:3 | | | like face. The thick, bristle- | like  | hair which had attached to | 
| 02Agat3    9:4 | | | of his body became soft,  | like  | that of a newly-born | 
| 02Agat3    10:6 | | | and javelins, and rushed forth  | like  | men armed with spears and | 
| 02Agat3    10:12 | | | vanished and quit that place  | like  | smoke |

| 02Agat3    25:11 | | | Finding other  | like- | minded people, he associated with | 
| 02Agat3    29:13 | | | of his life in acts  | like  | those of the Apostles, following | 
| 02Agat3    30:10 | | | his commandments, lest they become  | like  | their fathers | 
| 03Buz3    1:4 | | | history, to complete the contents  | like  | a brick placed in the |

| 03Buz3    7:16 | | | incredible amount of blood coursed  | like  | a river, and there was | 
| 03Buz3    11:15 | | | said, they fell in battle  | like  | Juda and Mattathias Maccabaei and | 
| 03Buz3    12:11 | | | and he, the son, became  | like  | his father in his qualities | 
| 03Buz3    12:14 | | | mundane things. Rather, he was  | like  | a brave warrior of Christ | 
| 03Buz3    12:14 | | | a brave warrior of Christ,  | like  | a champion hero who, from | 
| 03Buz3    12:15 | | | message of the Holy Spirit  | like  | a sword fixed to his | 
| 03Buz3    12:16 | | | him with knowledge with which,  | like  | a fountain, he irrigated the | 
| 03Buz3    13:1 | | | language was leaderless, and was  | like  | a blind person, groping | 
| 03Buz3    13:5 | | | wolves, becoming their food, just  | like  | the great city of Athens |

| 03Buz3    14:39 | | | them in your hearts. Rather,  | like  | the Jewish people you withdrew | 
| 03Buz3    14:47 | | | will be dispersed and divided.  | Like  | Israel, your borders will be | 
| 03Buz3    14:48 | | | sheep without a shepherd, and  | like  | a flock you will be | 
| 03Buz4    3:21 | | | Today you  | like  | me crookedly; tomorrow you will | 
| 03Buz4    4:24 | | | flourish, and was a son  | like  | his fathers | 
| 03Buz4    4:34 | | | the country of Armenia became  | like  | a general community of monastics | 
| 03Buz4    4:44 | | | and students, to love them  | like  | family and not to harrass | 
| 03Buz4    4:54 | | |  | Like  | the prophets and Apostles, he | 
| 03Buz4    4:68 | | | was teaching and schooling everyone,  | like  | a very kind father, like | 
| 03Buz4    4:68 | | | like a very kind father,  | like  | a loving mother, inspiring everyone | 
| 03Buz4    5:46 | | | to see God with immortality,  | like  | those who endure for a | 
| 03Buz4    5:72 | | | They said, “There was nothing  | like  | this that when neither being | 
| 03Buz4    6:10 | | | bread in the desert, and  | like  | the tree that gave the | 
| 03Buz4    8:33 | | | When everyone started shouting  | like  | that, the king relented and | 
| 03Buz4    9:2 | | | and sat on him, just  | like  | the first time when Patriarch | 
| 03Buz4    12:27 | | | churches of Armenia, everywhere just  | like  | his vardapet Nerses | 
| 03Buz4    13:14 | | | impudence, impiety and injustice so  | like  | that of the Sodomites | 
| 03Buz4    13:32 | | | will He choose. The righteous,  | like  | the grain, He will take | 
| 03Buz4    13:32 | | | the Kingdom while the sinners,  | like  | the weed, He will order | 
| 03Buz4    15:8 | | | the naxarars and the azats  | like  | Gnel and all the naxarars |

| 03Buz4    33:0 | | | against Armenia and how he,  | like  | his predecessors, was defeated | 
| 03Buz4    34:0 | | | troops; and how he failed  | like  | his predecessors | 
| 03Buz4    35:0 | | | king Shapuh, and who failed  | like  | his predecessors | 
| 03Buz4    47:0 | | | and how he was destroyed  | like  | his predecessors | 
| 03Buz4    49:2 | | | Vasak were defiant and attacked  | like  | ferocious lions. They killed the | 
| 03Buz4    54:3 | | | First, he broke that oath.  | Like  | a father to a son |

| 05Parp4    86:3 | | | scattered. After killing the giant- | like  | Gdihon and killing many from | 
| 05Parp4    89:10 | | | and correct. But if you  | like  | it otherwise, as is the | 
| 05Parp4    92:2 | | | of the Aryans, I would  | like  | to (if God grants me |

| 05Parp4    94:13 | | | where they mercilessly slaughtered him,  | like  | an animal |

| 06Khor1    2:7 | | | and translate them into Greek;  | like  | A among the K’, and | 
| 06Khor1    3:3 | | | in narratives and histories, then  | like  | them the compilers of books | 
| 06Khor1    3:11 | | | homeland by means of which,  | like  | the Hebrew historians, I can | 
| 06Khor1    4:6 | | | they reckon the new moons  | like  | the Egyptians. Nor, if one | 
| 06Khor1    5:50 | | | of kings, undertook this task,  | like  | a certain Arias and many | 
| 06Khor1    11:10 | | | imposing force of his entourage,  | like  | an impetuous torrent pouring down |

| 06Khor1    13:6 | | | borders of Armenia in incursions  | like  | the Kushans, and he controlled | 
| 06Khor1    15:2 | | | such a favor by Ninos,  | like  | his father Aram | 
| 06Khor1    16:4 | | | opened out a wide meadow  | like  | a plain, descending from the |

| 06Khor1    28:6 | | | and thus to seize him  | like  | a powerless child | 
| 06Khor1    30:18 | | | he split Azhdahak’s iron armor  | like  | water; the point of the | 
| 06Khor1    32:3 | | | Therefore I  | like  | to name for their valor | 
| 06Khor1    33:2 | | | should be elegant and lucid,  | like  | Platonic works, far from falsehood | 
| 06Khor1    33:9 | | | whether we are here acting  | like  | a wise or like an | 
| 06Khor1    33:9 | | | acting like a wise or  | like  | an unskilled workman, one competent | 
| 06Khor1    33:11 | | | killed - by Achilles, I would  | like  | to think, and not by | 
| 06Khor2    5:4 | | | his javelins a great distance  | like  | swift-winged birds | 
| 06Khor2    5:5 | | | blood flowed, watering the earth  | like  | floods of rain | 
| 06Khor2    8:41 | | | peasants should respect the townspeople  | like  | princes. But the townspeople were | 
| 06Khor2    23:2 | | | Antony roared  | like  | a wild lion, especially envenomed | 
| 06Khor2    24:3 | | | many to have two names,  | like  | Herod Agrippa, or like Titus | 
| 06Khor2    24:3 | | | names, like Herod Agrippa, or  | like  | Titus Antony or Titus Justus | 
| 06Khor2    35:8 | | | Helen, adorned with the faith  | like  | her husband Abgar, could not | 
| 06Khor2    36:8 | | | understand the matter it happened  | like  | this: a white dog, sent | 
| 06Khor2    42:3 | | | inhabitants and splendid buildings, shining  | like  | the pupil of an eye | 
| 06Khor2    46:8 | | | advanced his battle line, swooping  | like  | an eagle into flocks of | 
| 06Khor2    50:11 | | | rings and crossing the river  | like  | a swift-winged eagle and | 
| 06Khor2    50:16 | | | marriage and scattering gold coins  | like  | the Roman consuls. So too | 
| 06Khor2    52:2 | | | in his eyes, which shone  | like  | enamel on gold and set | 
| 06Khor2    54:5 | | | and directed his battle line  | like  | a young man and pursuing | 
| 06Khor2    56:3 | | | centers to be hollowed out  | like  | plates, and that they be | 
| 06Khor2    63:7 | | | and passionately worked his lust  | like  | an incontinent and ardent young | 
| 06Khor2    74:9 | | | the remembrance of these tales,”  | like  | those of Olympiodorus about Tarawn | 
| 06Khor2    77:10 | | | He governed our land  | like  | one of his own territories | 
| 06Khor2    82:5 | | | Khosrovidukht was a modest maiden,  | like  | a nun, and did not | 
| 06Khor2    82:5 | | | all have an open mouth  | like  | other women | 
| 06Khor2    85:2 | | | enemy into two, assailing them  | like  | a giant | 
| 06Khor2    85:3 | | | and rolled in the dust.  | Like  | a net full of fish | 
| 06Khor2    88:12 | | | king, save a few buildings  | like  | those of the world conqueror | 
| 06Khor2    90:2 | | | with the church, and in  | like  | manner the emperor deported them | 
| 06Khor2    91:5 | | | the companions of Saint Rhipsimē,  | like  | Nunē, the teacher of the | 
| 06Khor2    91:17 | | | divine providence you might say,  | like  | Moses of old [cf. Deut. 34:6], lest they | 
| 06Khor2    92:19 | | | will say: “Lord, who is  | like  | you | 
| 06Khor3    7:5 | | | own see full of anger,  | like  | Moses leaving the presence of |

| 06Khor3    11:3 | | | Persians, he lived in tranquility  | like  | his father and evinced no | 
| 06Khor3    17:11 | | | army and blinded his eyes  | like  | Sedekia of old [cf. 4 Kings 25:7]. So rightly | 
| 06Khor3    19:10 | | | Achilles, but in truth was  | like  | the lame and pointed-head | 
| 06Khor3    20:13 | | | that our country was not  | like  | uncivilized barbarians but like a | 
| 06Khor3    20:13 | | | not like uncivilized barbarians but  | like  | a well-mannered civilized nation | 
| 06Khor3    24:3 | | | in mourning for many days,  | like  | Samuel over Saul | 
| 06Khor3    27:11 | | | to be taken into captivity  | like  | children of distant enemies | 
| 06Khor3    35:12 | | | sad calamities he committed suicide  | like  | Saul [cf. 1 Kings 31:4; 1 Chron. 10:4]. He had reigned for | 
| 06Khor3    37:6 | | | valiant Armenian princes, willingly fighting  | like  | champions, came forward between the | 
| 06Khor3    37:11 | | | Hew standards of headless hair,  | like  | the foliage of shady trees | 
| 06Khor3    37:13 | | | For one could see them  | like  | a powerful river spreading out | 
| 06Khor3    37:13 | | | of these armed warriors was  | like  | water | 
| 06Khor3    37:14 | | | kept them up in supplication  | like  | the first prophet Moses until | 
| 06Khor3    37:15 | | | shields glittered on the mountains  | like  | lightning from a great cloud | 
| 06Khor3    37:15 | | | cloud. Out front the troops  | like  | rays of lightning rushed the | 
| 06Khor3    37:22 | | | heated, bent into a circle  | like  | a crown, and making it | 
| 06Khor3    40:5 | | | down one after the other  | like  | early-ripening fig trees [cf. Isa. 28:4] blown | 
| 06Khor3    43:4 | | | the Greek sector under Arshak -  | like  | Sahak the aspet, who was | 
| 06Khor3    47:2 | | | soul seeks the desert”; in  | like  | manner he fled from worldly |

| 06Khor3    49:6 | | | the canon in perpetual observance  | like  | those who dwell in the | 
| 06Khor3    49:6 | | | he cared for our country  | like  | those who are in the | 
| 06Khor3    50:8 | | | be confiscated to the court,  | like  | those of his brother Shavarsh | 
| 06Khor3    50:10 | | | who had him blown up  | like  | a wine skin and ordered | 
| 06Khor3    55:23 | | | right hand to his dagger,  | like  | Trdat Bagratuni went out to | 
| 06Khor3    57:12 | | | interceding with the great emperor  | like  | a truly dear brother | 
| 06Khor3    57:28 | | | as their true teacher, in  | like  | manner as the archbishop of | 
| 06Khor3    58:7 | | | that they might exact vengeance  | like  | enemies from enemies and by | 
| 06Khor3    59:6 | | | this he built jutting towers  | like  | ships’ prows and passages with | 
| 06Khor3    65:8 | | | the unbelievers for their derision,  | like  | pearls before swine to be | 
| 06Khor3    65:11 | | | Now try to soften Vṙam  | like  | a persuasive charmer | 
| 06Khor3    67:14 | | | men, there shone a light  | like  | a ray in the form | 
| 06Khor3    68:6 | | | you tended your children [cf. Mal. 3:17] not  | like  | a brother-in-law but | 
| 06Khor3    68:6 | | | a brother-in-law but  | like  | a true father of the | 
| 06Khor3    68:10 | | | For we are not  | like  | that people in olden times | 
| 06Khor3    68:29 | | | Awake, Jeremiah, awake and lament  | like  | a prophet over the miseries | 
| 06Khor3    68:40 | | | dry, summer very rainy, autumn  | like  | winter, and winter has become | 
| 07Seb1    7:4 | | | of faith, and putting on  | like  | a strong breast-plate zeal | 
| 07Seb1    8:17 | | | away the multitude of fugitives  | like  | a host of locusts; not | 
| 07Seb1    9:1 | | | I cared for them all  | like  | sons and friends | 
| 07Seb1    9:24 | | | anger against the whole world.  | Like  | the whirlwind they arose and | 
| 07Seb1    10:16 | | | days later Vahram rapidly arrived,  | like  | the swoop of an eagle | 
| 07Seb1    11:7 | | | elite warriors, burning with courage  | like  | fire, who did not hesitate | 
| 07Seb1    11:8 | | | the swiftness of their feet  | like  | the swiftness of gazelles in | 
| 07Seb1    11:20 | | | the multitude of your elephants  | like  | the most violent clouds of | 
| 07Seb1    11:21 | | | and will penetrate your host  | like  | thunderbolts of flashing fire, that | 
| 07Seb1    11:21 | | | will blow away your power  | like  | dust, and the royal treasure | 
| 07Seb1    23:4 | | | on the plain. Attacking him  | like  | brigands, they killed him on | 
| 07Seb1    25:4 | | | to his own place. In  | like  | manner the Gełum army that | 
| 07Seb1    32:5 | | | Persian army rushed upon them  | like  | the swooping of an eagle | 
| 07Seb1    32:8 | | | from that fortress; and in  | like  | fashion they took them all | 
| 07Seb1    36:11 | | | who chose and purified you  | like  | gold in the furnace, may | 
| 07Seb1    38:2 | | | he befriended and honoured them  | like  | meritorious and dear guests. He | 
| 07Seb1    40:2 | | | haughty man whose tongue was  | like  | a sharp sword | 
| 07Seb1    42:8 | | | patriarchs. They divided the [12,000] men,  | like  | the sons of Israel, into |

| 08Ghev1    26:10 | | | pursued (Ashot) over the mountains  | like  | a crow. (Grigor) caught up | 
| 08Ghev1    27:10 | | | then advanced to the fortress- | like  | base and the very tent |

| 09Draskh1    1:5 | | | However, I have not repeated  | like  | ignorant peasants events of historical | 
| 09Draskh1    1:17 | | | of King Smbat who died  | like  | a martyr by means of | 
| 09Draskh1    3:3 | | | a great tumult which was  | like  | the clamor of violent torrents | 
| 09Draskh1    5:22 | | | sword over their ancestral laws,  | like  | the blessed Eleazar and the | 
| 09Draskh1    8:9 | | | ineffable Trinity shining within him  | like  | a ray of light, he | 
| 09Draskh1    8:11 | | | who honored the holy patriarch  | like  | a living martyr with gracious | 
| 09Draskh1    10:1 | | | of the Holy Spirit girded  | like  | a sword upon his thigh | 
| 09Draskh1    11:4 | | |  | Like  | the first time, the emperor | 
| 09Draskh1    12:10 | | | Subsequently, in  | like  | manner our king Arshak, and | 
| 09Draskh1    13:3 | | | Great ascended Mount Npat and  | like  | Moses raising his arms toward | 
| 09Draskh1    14:2 | | | he was in the world,  | like  | anchorites he bypassed the ways | 
| 09Draskh1    18:9 | | | which the imperial signature concealed  | like  | a bushel. They were betrayed | 
| 09Draskh1    19:13 | | |  | Like  | the consuming flames of a | 
| 09Draskh1    20:9 | | | that it covered the edge  | like  | a parapet on a bastion | 
| 09Draskh1    20:15 | | | could somehow make it immovable  | like  | the calendars of other nations | 
| 09Draskh1    20:28 | | | himself the seeds of hypocrisy  | like  | the venom of a serpent | 
| 09Draskh1    22:21 | | | and setting his gray beard  | like  | a golden bouquet, he took |

| 09Draskh1    25:33 | | | forces, Bugha struck the land  | like  | lightening. He had Ashot and | 
| 09Draskh1    25:42 | | | the same atrocities. In a  | like  | manner, they segregated those of | 
| 09Draskh1    25:54 | | | he was full of indignation  | like  | a wicked beast. He ordered | 
| 09Draskh1    25:54 | | | destroyed gradually over many days.  | Like  | sheep they were driven to | 
| 09Draskh1    25:60 | | | determination in this matter, and  | like  | brave martyrs they were reinforced | 
| 09Draskh1    26:23 | | | the holy laws of Christ.  | Like  | a martyr he fulfilled within | 
| 09Draskh1    29:3 | | | humble. He spread his care  | like  | a mantle over everyone. He | 
| 09Draskh1    30:48 | | | against the chosen of God  | like  | Korah (Korx) and Dathan. But | 
| 09Draskh1    30:52 | | | hold that those who are  | like  | unto you lack strength, and | 
| 09Draskh1    30:56 | | | Lord, but let it be  | like  | that congregation which the Lord | 
| 09Draskh1    30:66 | | | of the impious witnesses—who  | like  | a sharpened razor wrought deceit | 
| 09Draskh1    30:67 | | | who have sharpened their tongues  | like  | serpents, and under whose lips | 
| 09Draskh1    30:68 | | | he has defiled his face  | like  | that of a whore, and | 
| 09Draskh1    32:1 | | | the twinkling of an eye  | like  | desolated tract of rocks | 
| 09Draskh1    32:2 | | | appeared to the onlookers almost  | like  | holes full of rocks | 
| 09Draskh1    32:12 | | | second. He dried them up  | like  | water and made them vanish | 
| 09Draskh1    32:12 | | | water and made them vanish  | like  | smoke, covering us all with | 
| 09Draskh1    33:3 | | | multitude of his troops swarmed  | like  | gushing torrents, overflowing, destroying, annihilating | 
| 09Draskh1    33:14 | | | and the foamy billows rising  | like  | mountains. Instead of exacting brutal | 
| 09Draskh1    33:23 | | | prince tended to the katholikos  | like  | a servant, and sent him | 
| 09Draskh1    34:4 | | | Afshin, and returned empty-handed  | like  | his predecessor | 
| 09Draskh1    34:18 | | | certain village, where they remained  | like  | people beaten by clubs or | 
| 09Draskh1    35:1 | | | a roar, and set out  | like  | a violent torrent to come | 
| 09Draskh1    36:2 | | | suitable gifts, and honored him  | like  | a close relative | 
| 09Draskh1    36:14 | | | submitted himself to the king  | like  | a son to his father | 
| 09Draskh1    36:14 | | | or more evident than this,  | like  | a servant willingly overwhelmed by | 
| 09Draskh1    37:1 | | | city of Tiflis from where  | like  | a storm he suddenly attacked | 
| 09Draskh1    37:9 | | | admitted having seen no one  | like  | him | 
| 09Draskh1    37:20 | | | matters, he roared with anger  | like  | a beast released from its | 
| 09Draskh1    38:5 | | | held in his hand, leaped  | like  | a deer onto the roof | 
| 09Draskh1    38:7 | | | and vanished without a trace,  | like  | smoke blown away by the | 
| 09Draskh1    38:16 | | | becoming, stately, and handsome stature  | like  | a garment | 
| 09Draskh1    39:5 | | | these, Smbat rejoiced greatly. Subsequently,  | like  | all the other tributaries, he | 
| 09Draskh1    40:14 | | | sending him a steed swift  | like  | the wind, and adorned with | 
| 09Draskh1    41:5 | | | Egrisi, and drove him forth  | like  | a kid, the very same | 
| 09Draskh1    41:5 | | | come out of his den  | like  | a lion threatening to tear | 
| 09Draskh1    42:2 | | | In  | like  | manner, he also sent one | 
| 09Draskh1    42:5 | | | inclined toward to evil, and  | like  | an ancient python returning to | 
| 09Draskh1    42:23 | | | to die a martyr’s death  | like  | David. They flung stones not | 
| 09Draskh1    43:5 | | | Thereafter,  | like  | reptiles that stealthily crawl into | 
| 09Draskh1    43:5 | | | when prince Gagik, bearing something  | like  | a crown, returned to his | 
| 09Draskh1    43:11 | | | out thus against me, suddenly,  | like  | a flying bird there arrived | 
| 09Draskh1    43:17 | | | Then,  | like  | brigands he turned upon the | 
| 09Draskh1    44:4 | | | Perhaps he thought that  | like  | Joseph, who was generously endowed | 
| 09Draskh1    44:9 | | | him and went to Madian  | like  | Moses; like Elijah I fled | 
| 09Draskh1    44:9 | | | went to Madian like Moses;  | like  | Elijah I fled the second | 
| 09Draskh1    45:14 | | |  | Like  | a tempest, the deathly Ishmaelite | 
| 09Draskh1    45:14 | | | our homes, disappeared whirling away  | like  | a dust storm. With the | 
| 09Draskh1    45:14 | | | by driving us to slaughter  | like  | sheep | 
| 09Draskh1    45:23 | | | of the impure and swine- | like  | beasts wandering over the roads | 
| 09Draskh1    45:23 | | | church was shed in vain  | like  | water, shed around Jerusalem. The | 
| 09Draskh1    46:3 | | | whereby, “I will meet them (...]  | like  | a panther, and those that | 
| 09Draskh1    46:4 | | | retaliation, when the sword sharpened  | like  | lightening will come upon and | 
| 09Draskh1    47:11 | | | burning) flames throughout our country  | like  | fire struck by lightning in | 
| 09Draskh1    47:13 | | | their flames among our people  | like  | blazing fires in the woods | 
| 09Draskh1    48:15 | | | the entire people might perish.  | Like  | Eliezer he preferred death with | 
| 09Draskh1    48:18 | | | that he could please him  | like  | a fruitful tree, and deceive | 
| 09Draskh1    48:20 | | | the district of Shirak. Subsequently,  | like  | the sly serpent of Dan | 
| 09Draskh1    49:3 | | | After this, agitated  | like  | a boiling cauldron by the | 
| 09Draskh1    49:10 | | | men would fall on him  | like  | rocks, and thus by means | 
| 09Draskh1    49:13 | | | lose the fortitude of dying  | like  | a martyr, in return for | 
| 09Draskh1    49:14 | | | seen a brilliant light gleaming  | like  | a lamp with a radiant | 
| 09Draskh1    50:9 | | | death of a martyr, Ashot,  | like  | an eagle soaring through the | 
| 09Draskh1    51:7 | | | Some were carried into captivity  | like  | senseless brutes. Many men and | 
| 09Draskh1    51:7 | | | into the midst of wolves  | like  | lambs in order to be | 
| 09Draskh1    51:11 | | | and deprived them of life.  | Like  | the Solomonian leech, they slowly | 
| 09Draskh1    51:28 | | | them the sabre-bearing executioners  | like  | a wall, and thus had | 
| 09Draskh1    51:36 | | | were brought to the arena  | like  | sheep about to be immolated | 
| 09Draskh1    51:44 | | | life. Willingly they were driven  | like  | sheep in order to be | 
| 09Draskh1    51:45 | | | upon their sufferings and death  | like  | incorporeal creatures. They were like | 
| 09Draskh1    51:45 | | | like incorporeal creatures. They were  | like  | the dauntless martyrs in death | 
| 09Draskh1    51:46 | | | of Martyrdom, and shone brightly  | like  | the sun in the midst | 
| 09Draskh1    52:3 | | | deserts, untrodden and barren, almost  | like  | a land through which men | 
| 09Draskh1    52:7 | | | brotherhood with one spirit, and  | like  | David hurl the sling at | 
| 09Draskh1    52:7 | | | of the new Goliath, or  | like  | Gideon and the cake of | 
| 09Draskh1    52:7 | | | sword of  the Lord, or  | like  | Jael smite the nail into | 
| 09Draskh1    52:7 | | | him drink the milk, or  | like  | Maccabee rescue themselves from the | 
| 09Draskh1    53:13 | | | and agaraks were distressed. Discolored  | like  | corpses and in despair, they | 
| 09Draskh1    53:18 | | | by the horrible famine, trembled  | like  | dead images and stumbled from | 
| 09Draskh1    53:19 | | | had fallen on the squares  | like  | great piles of corpses, and | 
| 09Draskh1    53:20 | | | that they themselves might become  | like  | the latter | 
| 09Draskh1    53:34 | | | my stay there was prolonged  | like  | that of Israel in the | 
| 09Draskh1    54:9 | | | We sent another letter  | like  | this to your curopalate, and | 
| 09Draskh1    54:18 | | | were spread over my heart  | like  | a net, and having recovered | 
| 09Draskh1    54:27 | | | the enemy, and turned barren  | like  | a waterless desert, in the | 
| 09Draskh1    54:31 | | | and love of the Lord.  | Like  | Paul supplicating, first let us | 
| 09Draskh1    54:37 | | | all of its might, and  | like  | an adulterer with dissolute passion | 
| 09Draskh1    54:40 | | | into an orchard-guard’s hut;  | like  | a forest, they hewed down | 
| 09Draskh1    54:41 | | | clerics of the church shed,  | like  | the water poured around Jerusalem | 
| 09Draskh1    54:44 | | | of their fear of death.  | Like  | a twig that is shaken | 
| 09Draskh1    54:53 | | | Christ has become desolate, and  | like  | a widow she is left | 
| 09Draskh1    54:55 | | | necessary for me to boast  | like  | Paul of my weakness, for | 
| 09Draskh1    54:57 | | | those with me from captivity,  | like  | torrents coming from the south | 
| 09Draskh1    54:58 | | |  | Like  | Elija I fled to Sarephtha | 
| 09Draskh1    54:58 | | | from Jezabel, the prophet killer.  | Like  | Paul I was suspended from | 
| 09Draskh1    54:76 | | | aegis of Roman supremacy, just  | like  | the people of Italy and | 
| 09Draskh1    54:79 | | | Let no mountain- | like  | surge or adversary of your | 
| 09Draskh1    55:18 | | | by the unapproachable light, shone  | like  | the sun | 
| 09Draskh1    55:29 | | | flight back and forth, waving  | like  | billows—according to Solomon “like | 
| 09Draskh1    55:29 | | | like billows—according to Solomon “ | like  | roses leaping over the mountains | 
| 09Draskh1    56:3 | | | people under his sway, and  | like  | a newly arrived guest expected | 
| 09Draskh1    56:7 | | | estates and villages ransacked. Thereupon,  | like  | foreign enemies, the sparapet and | 
| 09Draskh1    57:10 | | | carry out this task, for  | like  | Gideon’s cake of barley they | 
| 09Draskh1    58:6 | | | they fell upon one another  | like  | brigands | 
| 09Draskh1    59:3 | | | but disorderly forces, rushing almost  | like  | torrents that stream headlong down | 
| 09Draskh1    59:6 | | | left wings, and setting out  | like  | a company of brigands, soon | 
| 09Draskh1    60:22 | | | uniform peace between us, just  | like  | that between a real father | 
| 09Draskh1    60:30 | | | himself in the arena, and  | like  | a tempest having dispersed the | 
| 09Draskh1    61:6 | | | the enemy came upon them  | like  | lightning, and plundering the entire | 
| 09Draskh1    63:13 | | | troops with him to fight  | like  | one man he might be | 
| 09Draskh1    64:8 | | | their evil wickedness crushed them  | like  | bitter clusters under the press | 
| 09Draskh1    64:12 | | | Yusuf, however,  | like  | a whirlwind hurried out impetuously | 
| 09Draskh1    64:16 | | | turmoil in that place, but  | like  | a serpent that releases its | 
| 09Draskh1    64:19 | | | his mind) for king Gagik,  | like  | an Indian divesting himself of | 
| 09Draskh1    65:18 | | | hearts, we carried them out  | like  | hidden treasures from a depository | 
| 09Draskh1    66:5 | | | thus aroused him to bite  | like  | a wicked beast, and urged | 
| 09Draskh1    66:17 | | | Subsequently,  | like  | an impetuous tempest the Ishmaelite | 
| 09Draskh1    66:17 | | | to join them, they attacked  | like  | beasts | 
| 09Draskh1    66:25 | | | shields resounded throughout the land  | like  | the artifice of the inhabitants | 
| 09Draskh1    66:40 | | | were sheep, and immolated them  | like  | the votive and fragrant sacrifice | 
| 09Draskh1    66:45 | | | torments, and pushing them forward  | like  | sheep, made them prey to | 
| 09Draskh1    66:48 | | | enemy in their own tongue: “ | like  | you, we are of the | 
| 09Draskh1    66:51 | | | was taken to be immolated  | like  | a sheep and was illuminated | 
| 09Draskh1    66:52 | | | In  | like  | manner they also beheaded the | 
| 09Draskh1    66:52 | | | manner he lived in flesh  | like  | an incorporeal being, and received | 
| 09Draskh1    66:54 | | | acquire something from him and  | like  | leeches suck his blood | 
| 09Draskh1    66:64 | | | willingly tried, purified, and tested  | like  | silver in the flaming furnace | 
| 09Draskh1    67:7 | | | Ishmaelite mind, which is inconstant  | like  | the wind, made them flee | 
| 09Draskh1    67:30 | | | as we have become dull  | like  | cattle and the irrational beasts | 
| 09Draskh1    67:30 | | | of the Lord deceived us.  | Like  | the mud on the streets |

| 09Draskh1    68:9 | | | underworld (sandaramet), dying in vain  | like  | the men of Noah’s age | 
| 09Draskh1    68:13 | | | trampled mire in the ways  | like  | the salt that lost its | 
| 09Draskh1    68:16 | | | Son’s divine commands that tower  | like  | a mountain. But with the | 
| 09Draskh1    68:20 | | | shall not be brought down  | like  | brushwood to the trial of | 
| 10Tovma1    1:3 | | | these opinions. The story runs  | like  | this | 
| 10Tovma1    1:8 | | | account. For the story runs  | like  | this. Titan dominated Zrvan, captured | 
| 10Tovma1    1:10 | | | secretly saved by his mother,  | like  | Moses in Egypt much later | 
| 10Tovma1    1:11 | | | to the requirement of chronology— | like  | Got’ołia in Israel, and Cleopatra | 
| 10Tovma1    1:25 | | | by this modest service made  | like  | an offering he might thereby | 
| 10Tovma1    1:32 | | | irrational animals and was rendered  | like  | unto them | 
| 10Tovma1    1:44 | | | natural laws for men, that  | like  | themselves others too might learn | 
| 10Tovma1    1:45 | | | it were a paternal inheritance,  | like  | fathers to hand on to | 
| 10Tovma1    1:54 | | | of rational creatures, but wandering  | like  | wild herds in disorder and | 
| 10Tovma1    1:57 | | | in hewing the wood rang  | like  | the thundering of clouds in | 
| 10Tovma1    1:60 | | | it was commanded: eat meat,  | like  | vegetables and herbs. After the | 
| 10Tovma1    2:17 | | | the order of genealogy goes  | like  | this: Ham begat Kush; Kush |

| 10Tovma1    3:26 | | | you can learn other marvels  | like  | these from the same book | 
| 10Tovma1    3:31 | | | and alert, yet invisible, guards  | like  | a very secure fence that | 
| 10Tovma1    3:34 | | | and weak one is worshipped  | like  | a god? But how are | 
| 10Tovma1    5:3 | | | in every respect; they were  | like- | minded, very intelligent, and endowed | 
| 10Tovma1    5:10 | | | him unapproachable. The troops, attacking  | like  | champions, made the battle rage | 
| 10Tovma1    6:20 | | | Attacking them with Herculean valour,  | like  | a hero he warded off | 
| 10Tovma1    6:34 | | | noble courage and their eagle- | like  | audacity and boldness in battle | 
| 10Tovma1    8:3 | | |  | like  | a splendid king with honourable | 
| 10Tovma1    8:5 | | | Around the fortress- | like  | palace he encircled the hill | 
| 10Tovma1    10:19 | | | his filthy mouth against heaven,  | like  | an insolent and shameless dog | 
| 10Tovma1    10:38 | | | there fought the good fight,  | like  | a brave shepherd he gave | 
| 10Tovma1    11:22 | | | the future prepared for Armenia,  | like  | some prophetic vision. While they | 
| 10Tovma1    11:37 | | | to Theodosius, the pious and  | like- | minded Christian emperor; impiously and | 
| 10Tovma2    1:6 | | | fell the valiant Vardan, roaring  | like  | a lion or lion cub | 
| 10Tovma2    1:13 | | | by God the Armenian troops,  | like  | holy and divine warriors, were |

| 10Tovma3    10:47 | | | They attacked in four divisions,  | like  | the Lord’s cross; they crushed | 
| 10Tovma3    11:5 | | | Then the tyrant raged  | like  | a furious wild beast attacking | 
| 10Tovma3    11:8 | | | or madmen, and your words  | like  | those of a senseless man | 
| 10Tovma3    11:12 | | | reeked of gall and putridity  | like  | the stench that emanates from |

| 10Tovma3    13:52 | | | a few men, rushing down  | like  | a torrent of water, and |

| 10Tovma3    14:25 | | | truth, the race of Ismael,  | like  | those Armenian captives who were | 
| 10Tovma3    14:31 | | | waxing haughty against the Christians— | like  | Senek’erim our ancestor against Jerusalem | 
| 10Tovma3    14:46 | | | and put him in bonds  | like  | some disobedient (subject) and passed | 
| 10Tovma3    15:2 | | | the release of the captives— | like  | Khoren and Abraham, confessors of |

| 10Tovma3    20:13 | | | they left the camp, freed  | like  | deer from the snares of | 
| 10Tovma3    20:36 | | | his princely station and such- | like.  | The patriarch mediated a sworn | 
| 10Tovma3    20:47 | | | by fierce winds, piled up  | like  | mountains and thundering like dragons | 
| 10Tovma3    20:47 | | | up like mountains and thundering  | like  | dragons, with even more fearful | 
| 10Tovma3    20:59 | | | emir had given a signal,  | like  | that of Judas on kissing | 
| 10Tovma3    20:60 | | | lances they rushed on him  | like  | bloodthirsty, man-devouring beasts. By | 
| 10Tovma3    22:1 | | | and shakings in the abyss  | like  | agitated torrents. The lowest part | 
| 10Tovma3    22:24 | | | with mutual confidence and trust  | like  | a strong city or rampart | 
| 10Tovma3    22:24 | | | ambition welled up inside him  | like  | raging waves, he persisted in | 
| 10Tovma3    23:7 | | | names we recorded above, attacked  | like  | heroes. They surrounded the camp | 
| 10Tovma3    27:2 | | | times refined in the furnace— | like  | the altar of propitiation and | 
| 10Tovma3    29:15 | | | gatherer, the brigand, and such- | like.  | He poured forth sighing, tears | 
| 10Tovma3    29:34 | | | own construction that was built  | like  | a city, improving on the | 
| 10Tovma3    29:38 | | | his life for his sheep  | like  | a good shepherd, raising a | 
| 10Tovma3    29:54 | | | which went up and down  | like  | hills and valleys, when he | 
| 10Tovma3    29:55 | | | In  | like  | fashion Gurgēn completed on an | 
| 10Tovma3    29:62 | | | an attack from their lairs  | like  | bees swarming out from their | 
| 10Tovma3    29:65 | | | He was lying in wait  | like  | a lion cub in its | 
| 10Tovma3    29:66 | | | the fortress of Shamiram; swooping  | like  | an eagle on its prey | 
| 10Tovma3    29:66 | | | higher position, they rushed down  | like  | a torrent to attack them | 
| 10Tovma3    29:78 | | | common people, an innumerable multitude  | like  | locusts, from those who were | 
| 10Tovma4    1:8 | | | who  | like  | blood-thirsty beasts gnashed their | 
| 10Tovma4    1:9 | | | and swoop down on us  | like  | an eagle on flocks of | 
| 10Tovma4    1:12 | | | eyes were covered with grease,  | like  | the blinded Israel; he was | 
| 10Tovma4    1:33 | | | were struck to the ground  | like  | corpses, benumbed by the bitter | 
| 10Tovma4    1:36 | | | mighty loss spread over Armenia  | like  | a heavy thundercloud filled with | 
| 10Tovma4    2:1 | | | and he ruled his principality  | like  | a man with the help | 
| 10Tovma4    2:3 | | | Sop’i herself, incomparable among women  | like  | the turtledove devoted to its | 
| 10Tovma4    2:11 | | | For he had tricked Ashot  | like  | a young child by giving | 
| 10Tovma4    3:11 | | | strong stones bonded in lead,  | like  | a wall of bronze, firmly | 
| 10Tovma4    3:13 | | | inexperienced age he rose up  | like  | a lion cub delightful in | 
| 10Tovma4    3:15 | | | by a brother will become  | like  | a strong city.” He began | 
| 10Tovma4    3:17 | | | follow the summons of Ap’shin,  | like  | the first time which we | 
| 10Tovma4    4:1 | | | the throne of the principality.  | Like  | two fountains near each other | 
| 10Tovma4    4:1 | | | stream all the more. Or  | like  | two dragons or lion cubs | 
| 10Tovma4    4:2 | | | Or to speak more majestically,  | like  | the Queen of the Night | 
| 10Tovma4    4:6 | | | his accomplices were placed. Suddenly,  | like  | a fruit that falls of | 
| 10Tovma4    4:29 | | | Roaring  | like  | bloodthirsty beasts, they came as | 
| 10Tovma4    4:38 | | | the house of the Vahunik’.  | Like  | Judas he accepted the price | 
| 10Tovma4    4:47 | | | and endowed with charming modesty  | like  | gold tested in many furnaces | 
| 10Tovma4    4:51 | | | observe him. He found him  | like  | a high mountain, immovable by | 
| 10Tovma4    4:56 | | | a few days captured him  | like  | a weak child | 
| 10Tovma4    4:60 | | | with a golden harness, shining  | like  | the sun among stars. To | 
| 10Tovma4    4:75 | | | out peace in flowing torrents  | like  | a river or sea, which | 
| 10Tovma4    4:75 | | | future (it will see his  | like)  | after him | 
| 10Tovma4    7:8 | | | by winds, the waves ripple  | like  | flowers and appear quite delightful | 
| 10Tovma4    7:9 | | | colours, so that it glittered  | like  | the rays of the sun | 
| 10Tovma4    8:12 | | | eye. It also had domes  | like  | heaven, ornamented with gold and | 
| 10Tovma4    9:9 | | | the church on his arms  | like  | a gold vessel full of | 
| 10Tovma4    10:11 | | | king, supposing him to be  | like  | other people. While the sun | 
| 10Tovma4    10:14 | | | priests, held aloft his hands  | like  | Saint Nersēs until the second | 
| 10Tovma4    10:15 | | | soldiers. Striking those impious ones  | like  | a spark among reeds, he | 
| 10Tovma4    10:15 | | | the surface of the plain,  | like  | sheaves in a full field | 
| 10Tovma4    11:2 | | | lances, and trampled them down  | like  | stubble of the plain under | 
| 10Tovma4    12:2 | | | eyelids that shaded the eyes  | like  | a lily flowering in valleys | 
| 10Tovma4    12:4 | | | His lips were  | like  | a red line; his teeth | 
| 10Tovma4    12:5 | | | His fresh beard flowered  | like  | violets on beautiful cheeks, giving | 
| 10Tovma4    12:6 | | | on High. 
For he reigned  | like  | Josiah over a new Israel |

| 10Tovma4    13:4 | | | animals, and they ate carrion  | like  | beasts. They did not honour | 
| 10Tovma4    13:17 | | | Tułlup, launched a cavalry attack  | like  | an eagle swooping on flocks | 
| 10Tovma4    13:20 | | | delight according to Solomon’s exhortation.  | Like  | a cock strutting among forests | 
| 10Tovma4    13:21 | | | named Abdlmseh. He had survived  | like  | a spark from thunderbolts of | 
| 10Tovma4    13:25 | | | softly spoken and sweet-voiced  | like  | a turtledove. He had married | 
| 10Tovma4    13:30 | | | shone out in the universe  | like  | the sun among stars | 
| 10Tovma4    13:35 | | | the surface of the earth  | like  | flowing torrents, or like thick |
