01Kor1    15:6|set of divine commandments, transforming them into one nation and glorifiers

02Agat1    11:12|unbelievable amount of loot from them
02Agat1    11:13|incredible quantity of plunder from them. He became the leader of
02Agat1    11:13|of the Persians over to them. He removed or, brought forth
02Agat1    12:5|choicest of fruits offered to them. We observed also the zeal
02Agat1    12:6|they received as compensation from them peaceful and populous prosperity, abundance
02Agat1    12:9|ruin on the land from them from the gods. Thus, it
02Agat1    12:12|should they be discovered, let them be bound hand, foot, and
02Agat1    12:12|a reward to whomever uncovers them: their tun, sustinence, livelihood [keanq], their

02Agat1    12:20|reveal such Christians, or hide them and it be found out
02Agat1    13:11|Lord, that he would save them from the trial which had
02Agat1    13:11|trial which had come upon them
02Agat1    13:29|income, except that one of them was skilled in glass-working
02Agat1    14:5|our rule is despised by them, and there is no respect
02Agat1    14:5|there is no respect in them
02Agat1    14:9|moon and stars, and hold them to be creatures of that
02Agat1    14:11|Although we have inflicted on them all kinds of cruel punishments
02Agat1    14:12|made countless terrible threats against them, at the shedding of their
02Agat1    15:2|gifts to whomever should find them
02Agat1    15:11|women, that person informed about them
02Agat1    15:15|Lord, Who previously had saved them from the impious corruption of
02Agat1    15:15|women prayed that God grant them again that same victory in
02Agat1    16:2|the benevolent Lord to save them from the impurity of this
02Agat1    16:7|a voice which said to them: “Be strong [cf. I Cor. 16.13], stand firm [Gal. 5.1], be

02Agat1    17:23|lions, who struck and broke them like kids
02Agat1    18:1|torturers, with blazing torches before them

02Agat1    18:4|hands, and tied her to them. And they applied the torches
02Agat1    18:7|women, who had come with them, more than seventy people. But

02Agat1    19:3|of the gods? They deprive them of the pleasures of this
02Agat1    19:5|Azerbaijan. Why should I enumerate them one by one
02Agat1    19:16|For each of them they brought four stakes
02Agat1    19:22|stones into their entrails, eviscerating them. And because they were still
02Agat1    19:23|who had once come with them from the land of the
02Agat1    20:3|pig and, like one of them, he went and dwelled with

02Agat1    20:38|And so Gregory wrapped them in these shrouds and went

02Agat1    22:6|pounced on them and made them mad, so that the people
02Agat1    22:7|he wept and said to them: “You yourselves know all the
02Agat1    22:7|and continue to live among them

02Agat1    22:29|Among them the prophets arose like luminaries
02Agat3    1:4|rest and build chapels over them, temples of united prayer, to
02Agat3    1:5|you as punishment, and through them you may be reconciled with
02Agat3    1:6|the Godhead who dwells in them will have pity on you

02Agat3    2:4|He informed and enlightened them about every-thing, abbreviating nothing
02Agat3    2:4|nor hastily. But he taught them all most clearly, beginning from
02Agat3    2:4|of God’s words; he made them all acquainted with and aware
02Agat3    2:5|He informed them by individual name of each
02Agat3    3:1|torments which had fallen on them as punishment, because they had

02Agat3    3:12|But he related to them a vision as follows
02Agat3    4:1|his holy martyrs and raised them up to the incomparable, ineffable
02Agat3    4:4|the ineffable rewards prepared for them
02Agat3    4:19|all the plains and filling them completely as far as the
02Agat3    4:22|as rays flashed out from them
02Agat3    4:24|offspring multiplied, and half of them crossed to the other side
02Agat3    4:25|flocks and began to slaughter them, and there was shedding of
02Agat3    4:48|their life, to reveal by them the sweet odor of his
02Agat3    4:66|And the crosses above them signify that the holy name
02Agat3    5:5|Having said this, he ordered them quickly to prepare the material

02Agat3    6:1|be made for each of them, box-shaped, made of pine
02Agat3    6:2|All of them did as Gregory had ordered
02Agat3    6:3|He took them and, all alone, went inside
02Agat3    6:3|to come near or approach them, you who have not yet

02Agat3    6:9|offer anything of yours to them until you have been cleansed
02Agat3    8:7|Trdat lifted up eight of them, put them on his shoulders
02Agat3    8:7|up eight of them, put them on his shoulders and carried
02Agat3    8:7|on his shoulders and carried them back to the chapels, since
02Agat3    8:10|chapels, they adorned and decorated them. Then they brought and emplaced
02Agat3    8:21|the people with preaching, seasoning them with the salt of divinity
02Agat3    9:5|their ailments, each one of them. These included lepers, paralytics, those
02Agat3    9:7|the ears of all of them became full of the true
02Agat3    9:9|now suddenly became cognizant of them. And this was not only
02Agat3    10:3|falsely called gods - and consigning them to oblivion
02Agat3    10:11|from accomplishing our desires through them
02Agat3    10:15|true religion among all of them and set them all on
02Agat3    10:15|all of them and set them all on the road to
02Agat3    10:19|the Arsacid clan and trained them in doctrine. First was Trdat
02Agat3    10:21|Lord and cautioned all of them to traverse the paths of
02Agat3    11:1|Then, entrusting them to the all-protecting grace
02Agat3    11:4|district and brought all of them to the obedient service to
02Agat3    11:4|obedient service to Christ, leading them from their patrimonial traditions of
02Agat3    11:5|word of life germinated among them and all were educated in
02Agat3    12:6|labor. This was to free them from their pagan way of
02Agat3    12:6|divinely taught wisdom, to familiarize them with the glad tidings of
02Agat3    12:6|the Gospel and to confirm them in the faith
02Agat3    13:5|king deliberated with all of them, urging them to become heirs
02Agat3    13:5|with all of them, urging them to become heirs to good

02Agat3    15:6|They greeted them and informed them of what
02Agat3    15:6|They greeted them and informed them of what wonders God had
02Agat3    15:8|those who had arrived, receiving them with great care, according to
02Agat3    15:11|assembly of bishops, chief of them being Leontius, laid their hands
02Agat3    15:14|so that he might appoint them to the priesthood of his
02Agat3    15:14|land. He took brigades of them along with him. Gregory was
02Agat3    16:5|and to construct martyria for them
02Agat3    16:6|drivers were unable to move them through the valley
02Agat3    17:2|had concealed the entrances from them. They tried from the outside

02Agat3    17:9|of the land, and converted them to piety
02Agat3    18:5|spread to all, sowed in them the word of Life. With
02Agat3    18:7|meeting, Gregory filled all of them with the greeting of Christ’s
02Agat3    20:1|day, at dawn, he took them to the banks of the
02Agat3    20:1|River and baptized all of them, in the name of the
02Agat3    20:4|poured over people floated around them in the river
02Agat3    20:9|the blessed sacrifice and communicated them all with the blessed sacrament
02Agat3    21:5|that the people would accept them. Meanwhile, he also filled everyone

02Agat3    21:9|of the Lord and ordered them to be faithful in their
02Agat3    22:1|mentalities. He took and cast them into the furnace of instruction
02Agat3    22:2|He so separated them from their patrimonial residents that
02Agat3    22:2|that one could say about them “I have forgotten the people
02Agat3    22:3|trustworthy vardapets be put over them. In particular he ordered that
02Agat3    22:3|adequate stipends be established for them

02Agat3    23:2|the pagan priests and raised them in his own sight and
02Agat3    23:2|to their training and nourishing them with spiritual care and piety

02Agat3    24:12|all the fathers who succeeded them, guided by the apostolic canons
02Agat3    25:8|for Gregory to reside among them and lamenting his absence, they

02Agat3    26:2|And so, the messengers sent them off
02Agat3    26:3|king’s presence. The king took them along with him and went
02Agat3    26:12|great willingness accommodated himself to them, and according to the rule
02Agat3    27:2|this vow with all of them that they should believe in
02Agat3    27:3|against the pagan kings - killing them all by the power of
02Agat3    27:5|of the demons and obliterated them altogether, turning their ministers to
02Agat3    27:8|hosts of darkness and overcame them all by his power from
02Agat3    28:24|which had been given to them as offerings for the service
02Agat3    28:24|and costly furnishings - and put them in the chapels of the
02Agat3    28:26|among his earlier students, strengthening them in the true teachings

02Agat3    29:12|the divinely-appointed messengers admonishing them, of which the first orders
02Agat3    30:2|handed down, and to preserve them for the ages to come
02Agat3    30:9|race will be instructed by them, according to the word of

03Buz3    2:2|worthy tombs were prepared for them - for the great Gregory in
03Buz3    3:11|had assembled together some [2000] of them, and planned amongst themselves to

03Buz3    3:16|bound and defeated all of them belonging to the world-devouring
03Buz3    3:22|words of doctrine and confirmed them in the faith of the
03Buz3    3:22|saying a great deal to them
03Buz3    3:23|God to heal and release them from the invisible bonds and
03Buz3    3:24|a time of atonement for them
03Buz3    3:25|Having taught them the faith of the united
03Buz3    3:25|children. Thus, did he join them to the faith and released
03Buz3    3:25|to the faith and released them cleansed and believers

03Buz4    51:7|the Arsacid azg. Because of them, some of you became lords
03Buz4    51:14|so that you slavishly serve them for eternity, and perhaps He

04Yegh6    1:2|to make any impression on them (the Armenians), they resorted to
04Yegh6    1:6|with seven hundred men, without them being able to lay hands
04Yegh6    1:7|two hundred and thirteen of them to be killed

05Parp4    99:5|insufficient to hold all of them. The porticos outside the church

06Khor2    6:5|that when he next saw them, he might appoint leaders and

06Khor2    7:6|of the Canaanites and called them the family of the Gnt’uni
06Khor2    7:11|protocol officer. And he granted them villages, which are called after

06Khor2    9:5|of the Bulgars. Many of them split off and came to
06Khor2    9:6|in an effort to make them worship idols. Two of them
06Khor2    9:6|them worship idols. Two of them bravely died by the sword

06Khor2    12:9|Hephaistos, and Aphrodite, and had them brought to Armenia. But before
06Khor2    12:9|death was heard. Those bringing them fled and brought the images

06Khor2    13:20|an army, when he left them his treasures and tents and

06Khor2    14:12|Therefore he deprived them of the command of the

06Khor2    22:3|Aḷiovit and Aṙberan, leaving for them the royal portion in the
06Khor2    24:4|the Romans. He parleyed with them for a peace treaty, giving
06Khor2    25:8|twenty stadia, and he paved them with white marble paving stones
06Khor2    26:9|plunder into Persia and commanded them to cross Abgar’s land
06Khor2    26:10|submit to this and opposed them, saying that it was the
06Khor2    27:6|these men we shall set them in this book next to

06Khor2    28:2|he planned to rule over them through his successors and they
06Khor2    28:3|Artashēs had applied pressure to them and had cast the fear
06Khor2    28:3|the fear of death upon them, there were many dissensions and
06Khor2    28:5|But Abgar persuaded them to make peace and established
06Khor2    28:5|established the following conditions on them all: Artashēs would reign with
06Khor2    28:6|established pacts and oaths between them that if the line of
06Khor2    28:7|his reigning line he distinguished them as three lines with the
06Khor2    28:9|its place and merely mention them now next to Artashēs, so
06Khor2    29:3|same time had brought to them the text of the covenant
06Khor2    30:4|He received them with joy and honor, and
06Khor2    31:4|son of God and do them
06Khor2    33:11|altars and columns by covering them with reeds. And he did
06Khor2    33:18|that He had worked among them, signs and wonders, even on
06Khor2    33:31|the matter and inflict on them their just deserts
06Khor2    33:34|most ridiculous. For according to them it is by the scrutiny
06Khor2    35:5|provided he would not disturb them in their Christian faith they

06Khor2    36:8|sent out to search for them, found the child and nurse
06Khor2    37:6|children grew up, they called them Eruand and Eruaz
06Khor2    37:10|sons of Sanatruk, he slaughtered them all
06Khor2    37:13|Smbatanoysh and Smbaturhi, and settled them in Bayberd, leaving valiant men
06Khor2    38:8|daughters of Smbat, and kept them unharmed in the fortress of
06Khor2    38:9|Romans and ceded Mesopotamia to them, he was undisturbed during the
06Khor2    45:5|treasures on each one of them. However, the more liberal he
06Khor2    46:13|intervened on foot and slew them, thereby having half of his
06Khor2    47:3|Medes and Persians and dispatched them to their own country
06Khor2    47:7|fifteen young men, and called them Truni after their father’s name
06Khor2    48:6|king of Persia, adding to them from his own treasures, as
06Khor2    48:7|captive in Bagaran and settled them behind Masis, calling the town
06Khor2    48:9|the Armenian frontier. Artashēs satisfied them with supplications and by paying
06Khor2    49:2|of Masis; the war against them and their fall from power
06Khor2    49:3|But we too shall recall them briefly and give the true
06Khor2    49:6|from Armavir, and he settled them in Artashat
06Khor2    50:1|the alliance of Artashēs with them
06Khor2    50:4|south, and the river divided them
06Khor2    50:6|of vengeance, or by subjecting them to keep them in the
06Khor2    50:6|by subjecting them to keep them in the rank of slaves
06Khor2    51:7|was not satisfied with depriving them of the second rank; he
06Khor2    51:9|Not one of them survived, save only a few
06Khor2    52:4|lands of his opponents, bringing them all as secure captives to
06Khor2    52:5|Artashēs ordered him to settle them on the south-eastern side
06Khor2    53:3|the sea and those beyond them. Similarly, the land of the
06Khor2    53:4|Therefore Artashēs sent Smbat against them with the entire Armenian army
06Khor2    53:4|and the king himself accompanied them for seven days
06Khor2    53:5|So Smbat went and subdued them all; he ravaged the land
06Khor2    54:3|army before it and drove them quickly back as far as
06Khor2    55:2|Egyptians and Palestinians. Having subjected them to his authority, he marched
06Khor2    56:2|into the populace and settling them in the mountains and valleys
06Khor2    56:3|buried in the earth. Over them he had fitted four-sided
06Khor2    57:7|And some Persians call them Manuean after the name of
06Khor2    59:2|Artashēs, therefore we have divided them into many chapters lest our
06Khor2    59:3|sciences or were unversed in them - I am speaking of the
06Khor2    59:4|this kind was known among them, although other nations used them
06Khor2    59:4|them, although other nations used them. Nor was there navigation on
06Khor2    60:13|of his kinsmen, and beside them the military - the leaders and
06Khor2    61:9|him, and therefore Artashēs did them much harm
06Khor2    62:4|Bznunik’, asked permission to ride them, he boasted that he was
06Khor2    62:6|He ordered some of them to go to the province
06Khor2    62:7|confirmed his decision to give them no other inheritance and to
06Khor2    62:7|and to divide equally among them what they did have
06Khor2    62:8|of Hashteank’. Therefore, many of them came to the provinces of
06Khor2    64:7|We shall not discuss them by name, partly because all
06Khor2    64:7|of certainty about many of them introduces doubts in any complete
06Khor2    65:10|Vaḷarsh opposed them with a great force of
06Khor2    65:10|corpses over the plain. Pursuing them for a long distance, he
06Khor2    65:10|a long distance, he pushed them back through the Chor pass
06Khor2    65:11|although the valiant Armenians routed them and put them to flight
06Khor2    65:11|Armenians routed them and put them to flight, yet Vaḷarsh died
06Khor2    67:5|so Khosrov sought vengeance without them. Continuing his account, he says
06Khor2    68:3|lifetime separated from Isaac, sending them to the east
06Khor2    68:4|From them springs the nation of the
06Khor2    68:9|words as because he subdued them by force
06Khor2    68:10|And Abgar established between them a covenant and treaty that
06Khor2    68:11|Artashēs had obtained this from them, he granted them provinces and
06Khor2    68:11|this from them, he granted them provinces and ennobled their families
06Khor2    68:11|one’s name. And he promoted them above all the noble families
06Khor2    68:12|the throne was taken from them
06Khor2    69:2|the throne was taken from them
06Khor2    69:4|the Parthian throne and deprived them of their hereditary land
06Khor2    72:6|would make the worthiest among them king so that the throne
06Khor2    72:6|throne would not pass from them
06Khor2    73:2|forces had caught up with them and slaughtered all the branch
06Khor2    74:3|he promised to return to them their original home called Pahlav
06Khor2    75:3|He composed many treatises, among them a history of the persecutions
06Khor2    75:6|places, we have not considered them important enough to repeat
06Khor2    76:6|took refuge in Greece. Among them was Artavazd Mandakuni, who took
06Khor2    79:2|the horn, twisted, and threw them with a crash
06Khor2    79:5|But Trdat alone resisted them, preventing anyone from entering the
06Khor2    80:13|to themselves, but honor followed them, as Agathangelos informs
06Khor2    81:13|robes of the few, for them they are the common dress
06Khor2    82:8|as he had learned about them when living in the city
06Khor2    82:12|the horse of one of them, he boldly mounted
06Khor2    83:12|he had pity and spared them, preferring their salvation to his
06Khor2    84:14|the Sḷkuni, and he slaughtered them all. But two escaped in
06Khor2    85:2|the enemy into two, assailing them like a giant
06Khor2    85:6|flight. Trdat, in pursuit, chased them as far as the land
06Khor2    85:7|yet Trdat took hostages from them according to ancestral custom and
06Khor2    85:8|raised many troops, and bringing them together marched to Persia to
06Khor2    86:8|out trustworthy men and sent them to Saint Gregory, asking what
06Khor2    86:9|when the Lord would grant them a pastor as guide
06Khor2    86:10|their roofs, for it faced them. But if anyone wished to
06Khor2    87:3|men and the troops under them, invaded the northern regions of
06Khor2    89:9|confession of faith signed by them both
06Khor2    90:2|like manner the emperor deported them to the mines
06Khor2    91:5|made no haste to follow them when they came among us
06Khor2    91:18|ascetic called Gaṙnik, who took them and buried them in the
06Khor2    91:18|who took them and buried them in the village of T’ordan
06Khor2    92:24|of life, you have enflamed them more than the furnace of
06Khor2    92:29|mind would not lament for them? And, if no one is
06Khor2    92:29|such are those who encourage them
06Khor3    1:1|by casting an eye on them we could discuss everything without
06Khor3    3:3|according to this faith, send them bishops from the line of
06Khor3    3:3|Gregory because they are seeking them very ardently. And we know
06Khor3    3:3|certain that they will respect them for the famous name’ of
06Khor3    3:4|Trdat, trusting in this, gave them as bishop the young Grigoris
06Khor3    3:6|But he was superior to them by reason of his virginity
06Khor3    6:5|regions of Azerbaijan to keep them secure from the Persian king
06Khor3    9:3|our northern forces, and put them to flight, and having reached
06Khor3    9:4|and western armies fell upon them unexpectedly, pushed them back from
06Khor3    9:4|fell upon them unexpectedly, pushed them back from there to the
06Khor3    9:4|rocks of Awshakan, and gave them no time to fire their
06Khor3    9:4|custom. The valiant cavalry pursued them fast and hard into difficult
06Khor3    10:6|of Armenia. And he sent them to our country since he
06Khor3    13:7|accepted, and he immediately sent them to Byzantium. Tiran, he dispatched
06Khor3    15:8|innumerable forces to send after them and halt them, but we
06Khor3    15:8|send after them and halt them, but we allowed them to
06Khor3    15:8|halt them, but we allowed them to go for two reasons
06Khor3    15:12|fortress of Aḷt’amar, and massacred them all
06Khor3    17:4|Persian king Shapuh pressed behind them and deceitfully summoned Tiran to
06Khor3    18:2|princes by taking hostages from them all
06Khor3    19:7|you should draw away from them and near to us
06Khor3    19:8|our forces and fight against them; and with favorable letters from
06Khor3    20:5|lest the disease spread from them to others. Their retreats were
06Khor3    20:8|And he set aside for them towns and fields, fertile in
06Khor3    21:6|and was greatly honored by them the royal court. He also
06Khor3    22:5|he accepted and grandly equipped them with arms and finery, so
06Khor3    25:8|Therefore the king denounced them with shaming and stinging words
06Khor3    25:10|the same Vasak to pursue them with a numerous force and
06Khor3    25:10|numerous force and to kill them wherever he caught up with
06Khor3    25:10|wherever he caught up with them. Which, without any delay, Vasak
06Khor3    26:6|after writing a letter to them in the following terms
06Khor3    27:5|Arshak did not listen to them. They eventually complained to Shapuh
06Khor3    27:6|arise. But he fled from them to the regions of the
06Khor3    27:8|bones, and gaining possession of them buried them in the town
06Khor3    27:8|gaining possession of them buried them in the town of Aḷts’k’
06Khor3    27:9|since the depredators had jumbled them together. For that reason, they
06Khor3    27:10|infants, for each one of them was embittered against his own
06Khor3    27:12|Nersēs the Great freed them, ordered them to be carried
06Khor3    27:12|the Great freed them, ordered them to be carried in baskets
06Khor3    27:12|arranged care and nurses for them. The spot later became a

06Khor3    29:10|the Great acceded, came between them, and made peace. Both the
06Khor3    29:11|sincerely. This was agreed between them
06Khor3    29:12|to the Greek army, begged them not to harm our country
06Khor3    30:6|the hostages, so Macedonius saved them
06Khor3    31:4|Summoning them to his presence in his
06Khor3    31:4|the pretext of greatly honoring them, he ordered them all to
06Khor3    31:4|greatly honoring them, he ordered them all to be massacred, men
06Khor3    31:5|Not one of them escaped except Spandarat, the son
06Khor3    32:3|To hold them two very deep and extremely
06Khor3    32:3|of Nakhchavan, and they transported them in the wagons of their
06Khor3    32:4|of their own lords. Gathering them into the wagons under reeds
06Khor3    32:4|wagons under reeds, they brought them and buried them in the
06Khor3    32:4|they brought them and buried them in the same pits
06Khor3    32:9|Arshak did not oppose them but hid, lest a rebellion
06Khor3    35:2|small, they combined to expel them. Then they took their wives
06Khor3    35:4|But Shapuh, incensed at them, bound Arshak’s feet in iron
06Khor3    35:7|Taking them captive with the treasures and
06Khor3    35:7|and Queen P’aṙandzem they brought them to Assyria. And there they
06Khor3    35:7|Assyria. And there they massacred them by impaling them on wagon
06Khor3    35:7|they massacred them by impaling them on wagon poles
06Khor3    35:10|with the captives to urge them to adhere firmly to the
06Khor3    36:4|the princes’ wives and had them kept in various castles, hoping
06Khor3    36:6|pretext of tribute and had them sent to Persia
06Khor3    37:8|youth turned back, ours followed them closely. And just as a
06Khor3    37:8|with their lances and cut them as cold corpses to the
06Khor3    37:11|were a wall: most of them, dressed in armor of chains
06Khor3    37:11|as firm as stone. Above them Hew standards of headless hair
06Khor3    37:13|For one could see them like a powerful river spreading
06Khor3    37:14|hands to heaven, he kept them up in supplication like the
06Khor3    37:15|Merely at the sight of them the Persian host lost heart
06Khor3    40:5|enemy attacked him, he killed them one after the other with
06Khor3    40:5|men on the wall, knocking them down one after the other
06Khor3    40:6|passes of Daranaḷi, and putting them to flight he pursued them
06Khor3    40:6|them to flight he pursued them closely
06Khor3    40:7|threw down the planks behind them. However, when he came up
06Khor3    41:3|of these youths, he sent them off with governors appointed by
06Khor3    42:3|For although God had granted them victory in the years when
06Khor3    42:8|will, I shall not prevent them
06Khor3    44:6|enthusiasm, and it seemed to them a reasonable and enjoyable thing
06Khor3    44:7|Sahak the aspet, marched against them, slaughtered many, and made many
06Khor3    44:7|Sahak pursued directly after them and drove them off as
06Khor3    44:7|directly after them and drove them off as far as the
06Khor3    45:2|fortress of Hani to take them to the land of Tsop’k’
06Khor3    45:2|land of Tsop’k’. They seized them, and although they wished to
06Khor3    45:3|a powerful force and sent them fleeing to an inaccessible cave

06Khor3    45:9|When Khosrov received them, he set aside part of
06Khor3    46:2|Khosrov and Arshak nor lent them military assistance to make war
06Khor3    46:2|nonetheless they did not restrain them
06Khor3    48:2|not set a king over them and considering it difficult to
06Khor3    48:8|us from the emperor without them the Greeks disturbing the estates
06Khor3    48:20|the princes’ letter, and abandoning them Khosrov and the Armenian princes
06Khor3    49:5|all virtue, and even surpassed them with regard to prayer
06Khor3    49:6|always accompanied him about. With them he fulfilled the canon in
06Khor3    50:6|their rank. Likewise, he ordered them to observe the same attitude
06Khor3    50:9|Both of them with their soldiers, seven hundred
06Khor3    51:8|domains of each one of them, which had been confiscated to
06Khor3    51:8|court, to be restored to them, save only that he did
06Khor3    51:8|that he did not establish them in their fathers’ ranks but
06Khor3    51:8|their fathers’ ranks but put them lower than most of the
06Khor3    51:10|transferred to his name, altering them slightly but not removing the
06Khor3    51:15|merely content to fight against them in Persia but even to
06Khor3    51:16|the murderer’s son Gregory restored them through his healing and was
06Khor3    51:18|that you will not honor them with their ancestral ranks. For
06Khor3    51:22|subject to both kings, paying them tribute - to Vṙam for the
06Khor3    52:6|king of this, he told them what the monk had said
06Khor3    52:10|After they had studied them and had set a few
06Khor3    52:10|a few young pupils to them, they realized that it was
06Khor3    54:4|Georgia and fashioned letters for them through grace given from above
06Khor3    54:5|After selecting children and dividing them into two groups, he left

06Khor3    58:7|He ordered them to examine the pestilential Borborites
06Khor3    58:7|persuasion without force, to persecute them with tortures, that they might

06Khor3    64:13|to change him and give them someone else of their own
06Khor3    64:13|their own religion. Half of them requested Sahak the Great
06Khor3    65:7|their ingratitude. He also reproached them for their deceitful and honeyed
06Khor3    65:12|own Mamikonean family, he sent them to Armenia

07Seb1    51:8|of theirs came up behind them. So, they made for the
07Seb1    52:2|a dreadful death hung over them
07Seb1    52:4|Greeks were pressing hard on them. From the cold they could

07Seb1    52:19|and inflicted great slaughter on them. He returned very victoriously to
07Seb1    52:20|armies of Ismael. Warfare afflicted them as they engaged in mutual
07Seb1    52:21|prevailed and conquered. Having brought them into submission to himself, he
07Seb1    52:24|That he speaks about them is clear, because he says

08Ghev1    10:10|bitterness of the danger awaiting them, they one and all took
08Ghev1    10:12|Having said this, all of them together sought blessing from On
08Ghev1    10:13|prison in fetters and subjected them to unendurable torture, demanding much
08Ghev1    10:13|and silver. And they told them: “When we receive this amount
08Ghev1    10:14|because of the danger facing them, gave into their enemies’ hands
08Ghev1    10:14|hiding under water to keep them from these Arab pirates, and
08Ghev1    10:14|their wealth, the infidels condemned them to death and hanged them
08Ghev1    10:14|them to death and hanged them
08Ghev1    10:15|one. By eliminating all of them the Arabs emptied our land
08Ghev1    10:17|their herds. The emperor gave them the city named Poti (P’oyt’
08Ghev1    10:20|to the Armenian lords convincing them to return to their own
08Ghev1    10:20|their own land and giving them a written oath in accordance
08Ghev1    10:21|metropolitan and archbishopsand ordered them to write anathemas in a
08Ghev1    10:22|curses had an effect on them and became the cause of
08Ghev1    11:0|many as [200,000] men, and gave them to him
08Ghev1    11:9|carts and to conceal in them his heavily armed choice cavalry
08Ghev1    11:9|this way he would catch them in his trap
08Ghev1    11:10|the river, they encamped opposite them. Seated (hidden) in the carts
08Ghev1    11:10|encamped a short distance from them and then sent word to
08Ghev1    11:11|across the river to fetch them. Now the Arabs foolishly selected
08Ghev1    11:11|from their troops and sent them across the river. As soon
08Ghev1    12:1|Sulaiman assembled numerous troops, entrusted them to General Maslama (Mslim), and
08Ghev1    12:1|Darband (Derbend), striking and afflicting them. The Arabs demolished the walls
08Ghev1    12:4|arisen and had come against them, they forthwith notified the king
08Ghev1    12:7|means of extricating himself from them
08Ghev1    13:7|these same Scriptures, and follow them in what suits your intentions
08Ghev1    13:8|nothing of it remaining among them, till at a later period
08Ghev1    13:14|on these points, all of them, so that I may know
08Ghev1    14:1|whether He will not grant them time to repent
08Ghev1    14:8|near a fire, one of them recognizes that this element really
08Ghev1    14:12|words and had faith in them, without paying due attention to
08Ghev1    14:19|the Holy Scriptures and accuse them of being sinful. Jesus is
08Ghev1    14:20|of God which spoke to them before His incarnation. The fact
08Ghev1    14:20|no contradiction is found in them
08Ghev1    14:26|God, who has spoken through them all, and the Word of
08Ghev1    14:27|the abovementioned holy men, represents them as the favored servants of
08Ghev1    14:27|and compels you to regard them as such, whereas he himself
08Ghev1    14:27|what God has said through them and prevents others from admitting
08Ghev1    14:30|opinions you must believe in them all, because no one can
08Ghev1    14:31|of the Hebrew people, drawing them from the works of the
08Ghev1    14:34|sacrifice, laws which far removed them from the custom of that
08Ghev1    14:35|Israel, indicating what kings among them were agreeable to God, and
08Ghev1    14:37|to suppress some or reduce them to one, two, or three
08Ghev1    14:37|been much easier to deform them
08Ghev1    14:39|how much violence is done them, cannot be applied to any
08Ghev1    14:42|divine protection did not permit them to be dispersed as we
08Ghev1    14:43|did this people carry with them the Testament, but also some
08Ghev1    14:44|captives taking the Testament with them, you should hear what the
08Ghev1    14:45|back to Jerusalem, bringing with them the Testament, there was seen
08Ghev1    14:49|measure whereby God would instruct them
08Ghev1    14:58|chosen the way of sending them Prophets. It is for this
08Ghev1    14:58|be-forehand, and having announced them before the incarnation through the
08Ghev1    14:58|is the Comforter, to comfort them in the distress and sorrow
08Ghev1    14:59|since He meant to comfort them His disciples for His ascension
08Ghev1    14:59|for His ascension, and remind them of all that He had
08Ghev1    14:62|one, and yet, even through them all
08Ghev1    14:71|life, the Holy Church receives them into her bosom only after
08Ghev1    14:71|only after administering baptism to them, just as with pagans, indeed
08Ghev1    14:71|God has long since made them disappear so that one no
08Ghev1    14:71|that one no longer sees them
08Ghev1    14:72|minor importance cause agitation among them, especially among some of them
08Ghev1    14:72|them, especially among some of them who live far from us
08Ghev1    14:74|me indicate a few of them: First our Greek language, second
08Ghev1    14:75|your ancient books and replaced them with others composed by himself
08Ghev1    14:76|he (Hajjaj) could not make them disappear completely. Such a thing
08Ghev1    14:76|together skilled interpreters, and have them examine the books and make
08Ghev1    14:78|books of the Prophets, regarding them as falsified and recomposed by
08Ghev1    14:78|opinions, you make citations from them (the Scriptures) which you twist
08Ghev1    14:79|respect the Scriptures before citing them. Or, if you disdain them
08Ghev1    14:79|them. Or, if you disdain them as corrupt, you ought not
08Ghev1    14:79|you ought not to use them for citation. Finally, if you
08Ghev1    14:79|Finally, if you do cite them for purposes of reference, you
08Ghev1    14:79|you are obliged to quote them exactly as they are found
08Ghev1    14:79|in the books, without modifying them in the way you do
08Ghev1    14:85|orders). Consequently, you take from them what pleases you and change
08Ghev1    14:86|created all things and governs them
08Ghev1    14:92|in whose worship he encouraged them to live
08Ghev1    14:94|pleased to instruct men, promising them in advance, through the Prophets
08Ghev1    14:97|is the most powerful of them, and who announces things difficult
08Ghev1    14:105|to the Hebrew people, exhorting them to remain faithful to the
08Ghev1    14:105|glory. (He then says to them): “Turn, O Jacob, and take
08Ghev1    14:113|having heard such expressions, attribute them without fear to an ordinary
08Ghev1    14:123|I have preferred to limit them for the sake of avoiding
08Ghev1    14:124|wages; but if not, keep them
08Ghev1    14:126|which has not been told them they shall see, and that
08Ghev1    14:133|I shall endeavor to dry them up with a little effort
08Ghev1    14:134|Hebrews and we have altered them, though you recognize that these
08Ghev1    14:134|Gospels, that we may see them. This deception is most shameful
08Ghev1    14:135|even you have never seen them, and we are bound not
08Ghev1    14:135|are bound not to believe them. But you, who takes pleasure
08Ghev1    14:135|produce some quotations, after forcing them and altering them, do you
08Ghev1    14:135|after forcing them and altering them, do you still pretend that
08Ghev1    14:135|pretend that we have falsified them? At least quote that Gospel
08Ghev1    14:138|if you are dealing with them properly. Jesus, as God, had
08Ghev1    14:141|man, such an apparition making them realize that He was in
08Ghev1    14:144|disciples) as God, saying to them: “The Father is greater than
08Ghev1    14:154|pretend that we have changed them at will, altering the former
08Ghev1    14:154|their fathers when I took them by the hand to bring
08Ghev1    14:154|by the hand to bring them out of the land of
08Ghev1    14:163|disciples of ail nations, baptizing them in the name of the
08Ghev1    14:169|they were created; He established them forever and ever.” [Psalm 148:5b-6]. All these
08Ghev1    14:174|is you alone who consider them impure, whereas in the eyes
08Ghev1    14:175|note: “I will live in them and move among them.” [2 Cor. 6:16]. And
08Ghev1    14:175|in them and move among them.” [2 Cor. 6:16]. And again, “But this is
08Ghev1    14:178|Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his
08Ghev1    14:178|his bones; not one of them is broken.” [Psalm 34:19-20]. The divine power
08Ghev1    14:182|with the purpose of converting them to apostasy, and putting to
08Ghev1    14:183|so that we may bury them in places dedicated to God
08Ghev1    14:187|pictures, we do not pay them like respect, not having received
08Ghev1    14:188|as their living representation. Having them (their images) in front of
08Ghev1    14:188|it, we do not give them any reverence
08Ghev1    14:191|the illusion, and imprudently following them, make yourselves equals to them
08Ghev1    14:191|them, make yourselves equals to them here on earth and in
08Ghev1    14:196|kind of nourishment, you abandon them at your fancy
08Ghev1    14:197|retaking your wives you make them sleep in the bed of
08Ghev1    14:197|For you are prodigal with them of all your fortune, and
08Ghev1    14:197|when you are tired of them, you sell them like cattle
08Ghev1    14:197|tired of them, you sell them like cattle
08Ghev1    14:212|have the same faith in them as the pagans, whose abominable

08Ghev1    19:3|to remain there and hold them without warfare

08Ghev1    20:32|shame, encountered great insults from them, but could only make this
08Ghev1    21:1|spoke words of peace with them and summoned Ashot, Vasak’s son
08Ghev1    21:3|he wrote an accusation against them stating that they were agitators
08Ghev1    22:0|cavalry, and went off with them to raid the land of
08Ghev1    22:1|that the brigands had overpowered them and taken the city, many

08Ghev1    26:2|one by one and beseeched them with much conversation not to

08Ghev1    26:6|an oath of peace between them by order of Emperor [V, Copronymous, 740-775] Constantine

08Ghev1    33:2|rivers. Taxes were demanded of them in silver and per capita
08Ghev1    33:9|were stationed around to torture them. And thus did they die
08Ghev1    34:6|of the booty, and sent them fleeing to the land of

08Ghev1    34:11|those with him and put them to his sword. Thus, in
08Ghev1    34:14|the nighttime (Mushegh) went against them with a few men, to
08Ghev1    34:14|the vineyards. (The Mushegheans), surrounding them, demolished the vineyards’ weak walls
08Ghev1    34:14|of the fallen and gave them to his own troops. Then
08Ghev1    34:17|of his men pounced on them. As they fought each other

08Ghev1    34:18|general himself. And they wiped them out. In great triumph (the

08Ghev1    34:37|firm in the undertaking before them, and not to entertain doubts
08Ghev1    34:39|there in the districts around them. They looted and shed blood
08Ghev1    34:40|the Khurasan brigade, and entrusted them to a general named (ibn

08Ghev1    34:49|them. Someone arrived and informed them that a large force of
08Ghev1    34:49|had arrived and were awaiting them

08Ghev1    35:2|of God’s saints and carried them off as booty. Once the
08Ghev1    35:2|people had taken refuge, summoning them to peace, giving them written
08Ghev1    35:2|summoning them to peace, giving them written oaths and bringing them
08Ghev1    35:2|them written oaths and bringing them down from the fortresses

08Ghev1    37:6|districts and villages. Those resisting them in battle were crushed, ground
08Ghev1    38:3|having assembled countless troops, entrusted them to the same general whom
08Ghev1    38:3|we mentioned earlier, and sent them against the country of the
08Ghev1    38:6|district of Marit’ene’s and fought them. But none (of these battles

08Ghev1    40:1|arrows at them, and killed them
08Ghev1    40:4|their troops, he immediately had them seized, bound, and put in
08Ghev1    40:5|Then he sent accusations about them to Caliph Musa (al-Hadi

09Draskh1    25:47|the recent captives, he incarcerated them
09Draskh1    25:48|decision was made to convert them swiftly to the faith of
09Draskh1    25:49|when the tyrant Bugha asked them to forsake Christ and to
09Draskh1    25:53|of Christ, and sprinkled over them
09Draskh1    25:54|a wicked beast. He ordered them put to the sword, not

09Draskh1    25:58|arms, they did not kill them along with the rest. For
09Draskh1    25:59|They offered them many valuable gifts, treasures of
09Draskh1    25:59|silver, and promised to give them villages and estates (gerdastan), as
09Draskh1    25:60|But the blessed revealed to them their determination in this matter
09Draskh1    25:61|tyrant raged more fiercely (against them). He ordered merciless instruments of
09Draskh1    25:61|torture to be applied to them, and bade that they be

09Draskh1    25:71|Among them there were some, who could

09Draskh1    26:3|Vasak, who had barely eluded them, fled to the regions of
09Draskh1    26:5|back, and cut all of them down with his sword. He
09Draskh1    26:15|in confinement, and he carried them away with him to the
09Draskh1    26:17|remember his faithful services to them
09Draskh1    26:18|many gifts and honors from them, returning to their native lands
09Draskh1    26:19|As they relentlessly terrified them day after day with threats
09Draskh1    26:19|prolonged their anguish, some of them conformed to the royal orders
09Draskh1    26:21|impious belief. He fearlessly opposed them thus not once or twice
09Draskh1    27:7|in battle, but rather turned them to righteousness by means of
09Draskh1    27:7|of kind words, and brought them to his will by well
09Draskh1    27:12|occasion presented itself, all of them likewise resolved to become worthy
09Draskh1    27:17|which had been imposed on them much against their will, they
09Draskh1    27:18|Lord was pleased, and made them live in hope, for which
09Draskh1    27:19|land and the Lord visited them and blessed them with good
09Draskh1    27:19|Lord visited them and blessed them with good things
09Draskh1    28:8|of advice with care, kept them in his mind as precepts
09Draskh1    29:11|murder, he turned all of them into obedient, law-abiding people
09Draskh1    29:11|as well as princes over them
09Draskh1    30:4|should there be need for them at any time and place
09Draskh1    30:15|great katholikos intervened, and advised them to speak of terms of
09Draskh1    30:58|their will. God looked at them and with enlightenment instructed them
09Draskh1    30:58|them and with enlightenment instructed them in what was worthy of
09Draskh1    30:66|and Narcissus, all three of them. Do not be deceived, for
09Draskh1    30:71|the bride, the Church. (Let them do) many other things that
09Draskh1    30:76|iniquitous lips of one of them swarmed with worms before the
09Draskh1    30:79|of the faithful suppliant, made them worthy of forgiveness and blessings
09Draskh1    31:3|the ties of friendship between them, and having gathered numerous troops
09Draskh1    31:11|laid a furious siege against them, and stirred up great confusion
09Draskh1    31:12|of this, and going after them in pursuit, seized and brought
09Draskh1    31:12|in pursuit, seized and brought them to the king
09Draskh1    31:13|Putting them to the torture with chains
09Draskh1    31:13|and rods, and taking from them many treasures of gold and
09Draskh1    31:13|gold and silver, Smbat sent them in iron fetters to the
09Draskh1    31:14|he watched over all of them, and brought them into obedience
09Draskh1    31:14|all of them, and brought them into obedience, some by means
09Draskh1    31:14|with daring force, and subdued them beneath his feet
09Draskh1    32:3|rock and without compassion, made them resort to lamentations and tearful
09Draskh1    32:12|and with invisible swords struck them in one second. He dried
09Draskh1    32:12|in one second. He dried them up like water and made
09Draskh1    32:12|up like water and made them vanish like smoke, covering us
09Draskh1    32:21|an atonement be made for them as equals of the martyrs
09Draskh1    32:21|and thoughts let Him place them in the promised bliss, which
09Draskh1    33:1|the accord of friendship between them thereafter, and discard his promise
09Draskh1    33:9|Although all of them begged him frequently not to
09Draskh1    34:7|of friendly pastime, and bringing them together, he bound them with
09Draskh1    34:7|bringing them together, he bound them with iron fetters and confined
09Draskh1    34:7|with iron fetters and confined them in prison. Then he took
09Draskh1    34:15|it would be advantageous for them to carry out their undertakings
09Draskh1    34:17|much so, that many of them, weakened by thirst, dropped dead
09Draskh1    34:19|invaders arrived and fell upon them
09Draskh1    34:20|enemy forces to flight, dispersed them
09Draskh1    35:6|no hope of salvation for them from the gaping gates of
09Draskh1    35:6|Afshin a solemn oath, assuring them safety from bloodshed and all
09Draskh1    35:8|Afshin in no way exposed them to danger, death or confinement
09Draskh1    35:8|common people (ramik) and relieved them from all oppressions. He brought
09Draskh1    37:1|on the pretext of conquering them. Then he set out and
09Draskh1    37:14|The eunuch attacked them in full force at an
09Draskh1    37:14|name was Arues, and brought them with him to the city
09Draskh1    37:15|their prospective executioners cross-examined them severely, and tried to convert
09Draskh1    37:15|severely, and tried to convert them from the laws given to
09Draskh1    37:15|from the laws given to them by Christ to the impious
09Draskh1    38:3|and vigorous peltasts, and followed them closely behind. Marching through the
09Draskh1    39:1|had been taken away from them, and from whose mouths righteous
09Draskh1    39:2|God had dissociated him from them and their ways, which were
09Draskh1    40:3|the enemy to pass behind them
09Draskh1    40:16|of Yusuf, and having accepted them with much gratitude, reciprocated these
09Draskh1    40:18|He protected everyone, and granted them success in all their undertakings
09Draskh1    41:1|Alans, in order to subdue them
09Draskh1    41:4|that he could not withstand them, he retreated to a certain
09Draskh1    42:1|of his domain and (asked them) to exact vengeance on the
09Draskh1    42:3|drew up his forces, marshalled them into battalions, and ordered them
09Draskh1    42:3|them into battalions, and ordered them to be ready in arms
09Draskh1    42:5|burning and slaying all of them
09Draskh1    42:9|as Smbat could not resist them by force, and envisaged the
09Draskh1    42:9|and envisaged the mischief by them to be imminent, he thought
09Draskh1    42:10|fifth would secure peace for them from the court, while the
09Draskh1    42:14|in the wicked scheme with them
09Draskh1    42:15|latter was immediately snared by them, and then they ventured upon
09Draskh1    42:16|the same mind, and incited them to assassinate the king. The
09Draskh1    42:17|the others who had joined them, for the assassination of the
09Draskh1    42:21|king meant truly living to them
09Draskh1    42:25|him, and blinding all of them, some he sent to the
09Draskh1    44:10|our pasture. Each one of them out of obligation contributed his
09Draskh1    45:2|against king Smbat, and putting them under the command of king
09Draskh1    45:3|sons Ashot and Mushegh, ordered them to avoid the highways
09Draskh1    45:5|Presently, the enemy encountered them in such a way that
09Draskh1    45:8|was forced to retreat with them, for the assaults of the
09Draskh1    45:24|pastors who brought disgrace upon them
09Draskh1    46:3|prophesy whereby, “I will meet them (...] like a panther, and those
09Draskh1    46:3|in wickedness, I will meet them by the way of the
09Draskh1    46:5|the wicked ostikan, who made them pay their penalty by death
09Draskh1    46:6|in prison, he gradually executed them by sword, starvation and clubbing
09Draskh1    46:9|those beloved people, and bemoan (them) with tears and lamentations. For
09Draskh1    46:16|Some of them were confined in dark prisons
09Draskh1    47:3|gathered his forces and sent them against the latter. Upon reaching
09Draskh1    47:4|the enemy might possibly drive them to a state of desperation
09Draskh1    47:4|as they could carry with them, and quickly reached the fortified
09Draskh1    47:6|wounded and slew many of them and put them to flight
09Draskh1    47:6|many of them and put them to flight. Then, they themselves
09Draskh1    48:1|Recognizing the deadly snares awaiting them, and terrified of the tyrant
09Draskh1    48:14|latter always armed and sent them to fight against the fortress
09Draskh1    49:7|way was he spared by them even to a small degree
09Draskh1    50:1|stronghold, and put many of them to the sword which slaughters
09Draskh1    50:2|from the fortress and kept them in confinement at Dvin, in
09Draskh1    50:2|so, that the mistress among them could not be discerned from
09Draskh1    50:3|treasures were taken away from them, and their ornaments as well
09Draskh1    50:5|latter in Gugark’, both of them unanimously raised arms with valor
09Draskh1    50:11|Bagrewand, he put all of them to the sword
09Draskh1    50:12|he gave orders to turn them into casks and suspend them
09Draskh1    50:12|them into casks and suspend them from the bastions of the
09Draskh1    50:13|that were stationed there, slew them also by sword, and caused
09Draskh1    50:15|men of distinction, and putting them in iron fetters, confined them
09Draskh1    50:15|them in iron fetters, confined them in prison, so that he
09Draskh1    50:16|bravery, and putting all of them to the sword, took the
09Draskh1    51:3|and sending their armies against them, shed much blood
09Draskh1    51:4|Thereafter, he continued to pursue them to the extent that everyone
09Draskh1    51:11|They condemned all of them, both young and old, to
09Draskh1    51:11|the same agony, and deprived them of life. Like the Solomonian
09Draskh1    51:12|mercy, they tricked some of them to partake of drinks containing
09Draskh1    51:12|drugs, and planted poison in them, and they suffocated the rest
09Draskh1    51:13|feet and alive, they cut them open with a sword from
09Draskh1    51:14|been slighted and disregarded by them, and had ventured to depart
09Draskh1    51:15|numerous strong men pull on them from two opposite ends, until
09Draskh1    51:15|sword at the waist divided them into two parts
09Draskh1    51:19|that it was impossible for them either to sit up or
09Draskh1    51:20|Also there were many among them who were questioned several times
09Draskh1    51:20|riches. They made ready for them robes decked with ornaments and
09Draskh1    51:21|Christ, Who had awakened in them the redeeming will and the
09Draskh1    51:21|hope of wonderful repose, aroused them with the very same divine
09Draskh1    51:21|of God and kindled in them the inherent faith to withstand
09Draskh1    51:22|that were being prepared for them
09Draskh1    51:23|on the latter and executed them by the sword, whereby they
09Draskh1    51:27|clubbed their necks, and drove them to the place of their
09Draskh1    51:28|one body, they posted about them the sabre-bearing executioners like
09Draskh1    51:28|thus had the latter slay them by the sword
09Draskh1    51:30|and tearing himself loose from them, made haste to join his
09Draskh1    51:33|latter and promised to give them practically half of his domain
09Draskh1    51:33|arms, he embraced and kissed them frequently, and flattered them with
09Draskh1    51:33|kissed them frequently, and flattered them with adulations, so that they
09Draskh1    51:35|supreme judge Christ, he ordered them put to the sword
09Draskh1    51:36|so that He might reckon them among the holy martyrs, who
09Draskh1    51:37|to the sword, he begged them to kill his younger brother
09Draskh1    51:44|down the angels to save them, and because of their humility
09Draskh1    51:49|the fires of Gehenna devoured them
09Draskh1    52:2|suffered numerous calamities, which left them in a state of waste
09Draskh1    52:3|devastated many provinces and turned them into deserts, untrodden and barren
09Draskh1    52:8|Thus (we expected) (them to liberate the catholic church
09Draskh1    52:9|They defied those who trampled them under foot and became arrogant
09Draskh1    52:11|agitation and absolute hatred turned them against one another
09Draskh1    53:15|the menace of starvation forced them all to eat everything out
09Draskh1    53:19|the passers-by to extend them a piece of bread, and
09Draskh1    53:20|beggars, afterwards they turned against them in a merciless and harsh
09Draskh1    53:21|of utmost destitution, some of them ate the wheat before it
09Draskh1    53:26|no one who would give them anything. In this way, they
09Draskh1    53:28|seditious elements brought destruction upon them. For those who had been
09Draskh1    53:28|who had been captured by them were subjected to the agony
09Draskh1    53:30|some with thongs, and suspended them from tall balconies until their
09Draskh1    53:30|witness such things (done by them) not only to their enemies
09Draskh1    53:31|that no one could bury them in a grave
09Draskh1    53:32|devour the living by tearing them to pieces with their teeth
09Draskh1    53:32|over the innocent, and weakened them, for departure from this life
09Draskh1    54:6|task of admonishing all of them at all times in the
09Draskh1    54:6|that of binding and absolving them with the Christ-given authority
09Draskh1    54:6|wicked hostilities that prevail among them
09Draskh1    54:7|Do not let them remain in their wild, beastly
09Draskh1    54:7|in order to kill. Let them return to human rationality and
09Draskh1    54:10|extirpate the wicked animosities among them by talking to them face
09Draskh1    54:10|among them by talking to them face to face, or by
09Draskh1    54:10|any negligence. You must encourage them to turn to better things
09Draskh1    54:12|of the devil, might vanquish them
09Draskh1    54:13|you and we shall grant them remission for their sinful animosity
09Draskh1    54:21|Siwnik’, Smbat, had also joined them and waited for God to
09Draskh1    54:42|engaged in war, and repelled them by means of extensive carnage
09Draskh1    54:45|snares in secret by making them drink destructive and deadly drugs
09Draskh1    54:74|the Armenian nation by turning them first into a people of
09Draskh1    55:27|forces which had come upon them in great numbers, they took
09Draskh1    55:29|could not catch up with them, nor could they follow their
09Draskh1    55:31|insensitive heart did not trust them, because he always heeded the
09Draskh1    55:32|region of Naxjawan. He kept them under guard as if they
09Draskh1    55:38|by the afflictions (imposed on them) by their oppressors
09Draskh1    56:0|of Katholikos Yovhannes in Appeasing Them
09Draskh1    56:4|could in no way persuade them to consent to submit themselves
09Draskh1    56:4|to him, Ashot consequently let them be taken captive by the
09Draskh1    56:6|to arouse sharp animosity between them, with such insidious snares in
09Draskh1    56:8|And as both of them had been invested with the
09Draskh1    56:11|intensified the tumultuous confusion between them
09Draskh1    56:12|and forth, tried to persuade them, and establish the proper brotherly
09Draskh1    56:12|the proper brotherly unity between them. Accordingly, both of them heeded
09Draskh1    56:12|between them. Accordingly, both of them heeded me, and having received
09Draskh1    56:12|consent, I set down among them the conditions of unity and
09Draskh1    57:6|of the enemy forces surrounding them, with many tears and implorations
09Draskh1    57:7|bravely and vigorously rushed upon them. At the twinkling of an
09Draskh1    57:7|protected by shields, and routed them. With only two hundred men
09Draskh1    57:8|to the sword, or shot them with arrows and struck them
09Draskh1    57:8|them with arrows and struck them down with lances. On the
09Draskh1    57:8|Saracens, they put some of them to death, and amputated the
09Draskh1    57:10|the foreigners and completely annihilated them. Ashot himself together with his
09Draskh1    58:4|in order to intervene) between them, and with bitter tears uttered
09Draskh1    58:6|families to foreigners and enriched them, whereas they spread their way
09Draskh1    58:12|the enemy and many of them were felled by the sword
09Draskh1    58:13|occasion I did not allow them to do battle with one
09Draskh1    58:13|one another, and pleaded with them to use their brains. They
09Draskh1    59:6|a great uproar and struck them with horrifying terror
09Draskh1    59:11|of Orman, where Ashot honored them greatly, as it was befitting
09Draskh1    59:11|for kings, and bestowed on them many gifts
09Draskh1    59:16|Thenceforth, violent hostilities commenced between them as a result of the
09Draskh1    60:5|winter season disappeared, both of them respectively levied soldiers and prepared
09Draskh1    60:6|the nobility admonished both of them for their arrogance and selfishness
09Draskh1    60:6|arrogance and selfishness, and (urged them) to display themselves as exemplars
09Draskh1    60:6|persuaded the latter, they induced them to make a treaty of
09Draskh1    60:8|demanded that he return to them their hereditary fortress Ernjak and
09Draskh1    60:14|the enemy, who raised before them the protective shield of the
09Draskh1    60:14|wounded and felled many of them, until the rebels promised to
09Draskh1    60:14|rebels promised to submit to them, and sought terms of peace
09Draskh1    60:19|he set out to meet them. The foe had pitched camp
09Draskh1    60:24|eight thousand men, and driving them forward he advanced them opposite
09Draskh1    60:24|driving them forward he advanced them opposite the mound where the
09Draskh1    60:30|forests. Perhaps no one among them from the youngest to the
09Draskh1    60:33|apprehension, he blinded both of them without considering that the Providence
09Draskh1    60:34|confidence in him and alienated them
09Draskh1    61:1|was unable to stand against them, and was seized and brought
09Draskh1    61:5|few days later, and sent them to the region of the
09Draskh1    61:6|before the enemy came upon them like lightning, and plundering the
09Draskh1    62:5|he had restored Vasak to them
09Draskh1    62:7|he had restored Vasak to them. At this point, the king
09Draskh1    62:8|he would return Vasak to them, and he was invited by
09Draskh1    62:8|and he was invited by them to send forces, so that
09Draskh1    62:9|arrived, the guards opened before them the door of the secret
09Draskh1    62:10|might be able to drive them out
09Draskh1    62:13|Thereupon, Ashot cried out to them in a loud voice and
09Draskh1    62:14|few days deprived all of them of their eyes, nose and
09Draskh1    63:1|if they were reins, turned them to positive thoughts
09Draskh1    63:2|he levied troops from among them, and setting out arrived at
09Draskh1    63:5|advice, whereby I appealed to them, they cleansed themselves of the
09Draskh1    63:6|Soon both of them arrived at the gates of

09Draskh1    63:8|in that province and instigated them to rise in rebellion
09Draskh1    63:12|ornaments and spears, he handed them over to him, so that
09Draskh1    63:15|his forces and carelessly brought them into the narrow defile of
09Draskh1    63:17|to hand over Ashot to them in fetters, provided that they
09Draskh1    63:18|as birds), and mounting on them unexpectedly in the middle of
09Draskh1    63:19|that no one from among them could escape. They spared only
09Draskh1    64:3|destructive war, and fell upon them with great forces, until he
09Draskh1    64:3|forces, until he had brought them to submission
09Draskh1    64:6|distress that he had caused them
09Draskh1    64:8|of their evil wickedness crushed them like bitter clusters under the
09Draskh1    64:13|refugees with him, he sheltered them in the secure mountain glens
09Draskh1    64:15|of his realm, and sheltered them in the security of the
09Draskh1    65:3|Nasr) might rob both of them who had been deceived. Subsequently
09Draskh1    65:5|allied himself with both of them by word and not by
09Draskh1    65:5|and not by heart, asked them to come with him to
09Draskh1    65:7|the latter, bound all of them with iron fetters, and confined
09Draskh1    65:7|with iron fetters, and confined them, over forty in number, in
09Draskh1    65:9|been seized together, and putting them in iron fetters, confined them
09Draskh1    65:9|them in iron fetters, confined them in prison. Thus, the deadly
09Draskh1    65:15|doubts and did not follow them on the heels of their
09Draskh1    65:18|in our hearts, we carried them out like hidden treasures from
09Draskh1    66:2|aberrant sect, who always teaches them to utter blasphemous words against
09Draskh1    66:4|possessions of the latter, let them bear those to you. Should
09Draskh1    66:4|they must inflict retribution on them, and relentlessly shed much blood
09Draskh1    66:6|monks that were there, subjected them to great beating and torments
09Draskh1    66:6|and torments in demanding from them the possessions that they had
09Draskh1    66:6|they had hidden. They tortured them to such an extent, that
09Draskh1    66:11|of time did not permit them to follow us, or even
09Draskh1    66:11|foreknowledge of that had brought them close to the victorious contest
09Draskh1    66:13|and shut their gates behind them
09Draskh1    66:17|that had come to join them, they attacked like beasts
09Draskh1    66:18|people of the fortress saw them turn to such deathly acts
09Draskh1    66:19|the blessed bishop to give them of the body and blood
09Draskh1    66:20|and with gentle words instructed them on matters beyond our teachings
09Draskh1    66:22|become thick around us. Let them (the enemy) not befoul the
09Draskh1    66:22|of your forefather, and let them not snatch away from you
09Draskh1    66:23|fire, and urged all of them to raise their voices in
09Draskh1    66:23|God of all, and exhorted them not to cease praying continuously
09Draskh1    66:26|the afflictions of war for them, so that they might not
09Draskh1    66:30|and instructor of men, offered them much advice in the following
09Draskh1    66:36|wickedness they made all of them prey to the merciless sword
09Draskh1    66:37|that He might not deprive them of His visitation. Thus, the
09Draskh1    66:38|impious executioners arrived, and found them engaged in prayer in the
09Draskh1    66:38|church, they tried to terrorize them by brandishing their swords, pounding
09Draskh1    66:38|by the Lord, Who protected them
09Draskh1    66:39|Subsequently, (the Arabs) drove them out of the church all
09Draskh1    66:39|at once, and having divested them of their scanty robes, condemned
09Draskh1    66:39|of their scanty robes, condemned them to death. Because of the
09Draskh1    66:39|their hearts and turned upon them. At first, they cut with
09Draskh1    66:40|they were sheep, and immolated them like the votive and fragrant
09Draskh1    66:41|Thus, all of them, seemingly clad in full armor
09Draskh1    66:42|deacon T’eodoros was not among them at the time of their
09Draskh1    66:45|place of torments, and pushing them forward like sheep, made them
09Draskh1    66:45|them forward like sheep, made them prey to the insatiable Ishmaelite
09Draskh1    66:45|sword. They beheaded all of them in order to take the
09Draskh1    66:45|to take the heads with them to the ostikan, and thereby
09Draskh1    66:48|turned their swords away from them, so that not one of
09Draskh1    66:48|so that not one of them was lost
09Draskh1    66:49|to come and mingle with them in order to be saved
09Draskh1    66:57|of all those that heard them, and caused them to break
09Draskh1    66:57|that heard them, and caused them to break into bitter tears
09Draskh1    66:59|begged the Lord to save them from the unrestrained ravages of
09Draskh1    66:59|a layman, and both of them had the same name, Kiwrakos
09Draskh1    66:60|all the captives, and let them go wherever they wanted, for
09Draskh1    66:60|God, and His Providence had them mercifully redeemed in the presence
09Draskh1    66:61|short time later I ransomed them at the price of silver
09Draskh1    66:61|of silver, and thus rescued them from their aberrant faith
09Draskh1    66:64|set, they conducted both of them to the arena, and made
09Draskh1    66:64|to the arena, and made them prey to the merciless sword
09Draskh1    66:65|they also had brought with them the soldiers who had betrayed
09Draskh1    66:65|so that he might repay them for their favor, and relieve
09Draskh1    66:65|for their favor, and relieve them of their annual taxes
09Draskh1    66:66|services, but he immediately ordered them put to the sword. Thus
09Draskh1    66:66|for life was lost to them. The trustworthy words of the
09Draskh1    66:66|come to their fulfillment with them
09Draskh1    67:1|submit to him, or slaughter them by the sword in battle
09Draskh1    67:3|shahanshah had not submitted to them
09Draskh1    67:4|ravaging (their possessions), and putting them to the sword, for the
09Draskh1    67:7|enemy, and threw many of them headlong to the ground. Although
09Draskh1    67:7|inconstant like the wind, made them flee before him
09Draskh1    67:9|to death, and having beheaded them, he brought their heads with
09Draskh1    67:10|the former, and having supplied them with horses and arms, he
09Draskh1    67:12|also went on board with them, and they set sail in
09Draskh1    67:12|on many others, or killed them. Thus they cut their way
09Draskh1    67:29|hand upon those that afflicted them
10Tovma1    1:1|the nations following Noah, arranging them according to tribe and the
10Tovma1    1:18|Asians and Egyptians and subjected them to tribute, but without removing
10Tovma1    1:19|differ (from Scripture) by calling them different names
10Tovma1    1:21|of every nation and having them translated into Greek. But these
10Tovma1    1:22|critically and not skim over them, we must here make a
10Tovma1    1:30|the thoughts of each of them even more distinctly (than any

10Tovma1    1:44|them opposite paradise, to teach them to regain that same life

10Tovma1    1:52|command to keep away from them, whereby he reveals their ruinous

10Tovma1    1:52|his honourable love by calling them his sons, they had overthrown

10Tovma1    3:18|occasion to meet some of them coming from the land of

10Tovma1    3:30|in this regard to call them angels. For rational (beings) are
10Tovma1    3:32|merits in order to refute them, which the benighted Easterners hand
10Tovma1    4:2|to son; but none of them did anything worthy of record
10Tovma1    4:2|of record, and none of them held power for less than
10Tovma1    4:2|and peace-loving character kept them in security. Since they sat
10Tovma1    4:2|the palace, no one saw them except concubines and eunuchs
10Tovma1    4:27|the Assyrians declined. Some of them remained as tyrants in the
10Tovma1    5:7|captured by Tigran; he brought them to Armenia and reduced them
10Tovma1    5:7|them to Armenia and reduced them to the rank of slaves
10Tovma1    5:7|demonstrated obedient devotion, he appointed them to serve as bearers of
10Tovma1    5:7|of eagles and falcons. Promoting them to the position of cupbearers
10Tovma1    5:7|at feasts, he eventually raised them to noble status and settled
10Tovma1    5:7|to noble status and settled them in the province of Ałbag
10Tovma1    5:7|province of Ałbag, later settling them in Jołakhel, in Vranjunik’, and
10Tovma1    5:7|because he had previously given them in service to his sister
10Tovma1    5:7|wife of Ashdahak, before settling them in the places just mentioned
10Tovma1    5:16|not a single one of them survived. Xerxes and Arshēz brought
10Tovma1    5:16|to their own country, leading them as far as the holy
10Tovma1    6:20|war against Alexander’s generals. Attacking them with Herculean valour, like a
10Tovma1    6:25|for twelve years; many of them (Jews) he brought down from

10Tovma1    9:5|we have labored to discover them, down to the reign of
10Tovma1    10:10|his own property given to them in hereditary possession by the
10Tovma1    10:14|young in age, and took them to (their) fortresses in Tayk’

10Tovma1    10:35|at Tigran’s orders; they marched them to Isfahan. Then they took

10Tovma1    11:27|nobles, he made king over them his own son Shapuh. When
10Tovma1    11:32|from Saint Sahak, taking with them also the script and examples
10Tovma1    11:33|and pious emperor Theodosius received them with the five letters and
10Tovma1    11:38|Vṙam, most delighted, heeded them and was happy to abolish
10Tovma1    11:38|of Armenian nobles. He questioned them as to why they had
10Tovma1    11:39|tribute and military service on them, but he preferred to see

10Tovma1    11:47|he would not listen to them. (Then he told them) the

10Tovma1    11:55|section which refers back to them both. This the blessed Koriun
10Tovma2    1:4|of the Andzavats’ik’, to inform them of what had happened
10Tovma2    1:5|with their forces, bringing with them the troops from the mountains

10Tovma2    2:10|and peaceful fashion and promoted them to rank and honour with
10Tovma2    2:16|In response he told them not to yield to the
10Tovma2    2:16|and if any danger befell them to endure it just as
10Tovma2    2:16|and inflexible, did not trouble them but left them to their

10Tovma2    2:24|of the Lord I defeated them,” in unison they fell on
10Tovma2    2:25|sword and routed most of them; the fleeing survivors they pursued
10Tovma2    3:9|the declaration and taken to them. But having received and read
10Tovma2    3:10|see armed elephants and on them strong fully armed warriors who
10Tovma2    3:14|the Greek troops, who pursued them until night was dark, covering
10Tovma2    3:20|Persian governor who was over them, were preparing themselves for war
10Tovma2    3:24|the clerics did they show them the place where it had
10Tovma2    3:25|court to have mercy on them, to restore the city and
10Tovma2    3:27|friendship. Going out to meet them, to honour them as meritorious
10Tovma2    3:27|to meet them, to honour them as meritorious guests, he received
10Tovma2    3:27|as meritorious guests, he received them with splendid presents, gave the
10Tovma2    3:50|war against Heraclius. He opposed them with a mighty force. And
10Tovma2    3:50|Heraclius was bearing down upon them until he arrived and (the
10Tovma2    3:51|the Greeks) wished to slaughter them all, but they raised a
10Tovma2    3:52|Then Heraclius ordered them to be spared. So, there
10Tovma2    3:53|palaces of the king, burned them with fire, and seized the

10Tovma2    3:57|come to Ctesiphon. They seized them secretly at night without King
10Tovma2    3:69|bearers many gifts and dismissed them with great honours
10Tovma2    3:76|soon died. Then some of them made king Azarmik, a daughter
10Tovma2    4:2|But the emperor Heraclius commanded them to be besieged. The king’s
10Tovma2    4:2|the army wished to slaughter them, but the king commanded them
10Tovma2    4:2|them, but the king commanded them to leave his territory. They
10Tovma2    4:3|there was great opposition between them, because they were divided by
10Tovma2    4:5|It happened that one of them, called Abdla, died leaving a
10Tovma2    4:10|to my nation, to show (them) God the Creator of heaven
10Tovma2    4:11|an angel. And many of them believed him when he said
10Tovma2    4:13|was a great outcry among them and such a dispute that
10Tovma2    4:13|a dispute that many of them drew their swords. Mahmet’s side
10Tovma2    4:16|himself head and leader of them all. He appointed as his

10Tovma2    4:19|the Romans) went out against them. Leaving their horses, they opposed
10Tovma2    4:19|Leaving their horses, they opposed them on foot
10Tovma2    4:20|having been at rest, attacked them. Exhausted by the weight of
10Tovma2    4:20|of the enemy, who slew them with their swords. Reaching the
10Tovma2    4:21|other church ornaments and brought them in flight to the imperial
10Tovma2    4:27|eat insatiably one would find them ready. And there would be
10Tovma2    4:29|laments the ancient writer bewails them, saying: “Woe to you, alas
10Tovma2    4:33|called Yazkert. Yazkert fled before them but was unable to escape
10Tovma2    4:36|princes of Armenia and burned them all in the city of

10Tovma2    4:38|did not dare to remove them all, yet being very confounded
10Tovma2    4:38|stores of treasures he distributed them liberally to all his soldiers
10Tovma2    4:56|considered it superfluous to repeat them. Furthermore, their names and the
10Tovma2    5:7|might be able to dispossess them of each of their principalities
10Tovma2    5:8|that they were plotting against them (the Armenians), but merely indicated
10Tovma2    6:13|the left. The Armenians made them all fodder for the sword
10Tovma2    6:14|enemies’ side who could resist them, not a single person. Those
10Tovma2    6:15|foot, full of lamentation, (asking) them to reckon as sufficient the
10Tovma2    6:15|valour which God had granted them through Ashot. She persuaded them
10Tovma2    6:15|them through Ashot. She persuaded them to let them (the fugitives
10Tovma2    6:15|She persuaded them to let them (the fugitives) go their way
10Tovma2    6:18|and how Prince Ashot opposed them and defeated them with the
10Tovma2    6:18|Ashot opposed them and defeated them with the sword. The description
10Tovma2    6:24|too armed for battle against them (the Armenians). As they faced
10Tovma2    6:36|impious king.” Continuously he urged them to renounce and abandon the
10Tovma2    6:36|they were working; he attacked them with biting words, having as
10Tovma2    6:37|as the Sodomites he called them Sodomites. As the prophet Ezekiel
10Tovma2    6:39|by law.” And again: “Let them make just judgments and work
10Tovma2    6:42|if they were to remove them “no one will be able
10Tovma2    6:43|Armenia to wreak harm on them as they had planned

10Tovma2    6:55|in iron bonds, and sent them to Samarra. He himself went

10Tovma2    6:56|the captives they kept with them in the city to be
10Tovma2    6:56|and hewers of wood, causing them cruel torments in these tasks
10Tovma2    7:5|the enemies that may attack them, they marched against the city
10Tovma2    7:6|the church, and some of them reached him through the gap
10Tovma2    7:6|between the domes. One of them struck him in the middle
10Tovma2    7:9|from the rocks. Half of them lose their native tongue from
10Tovma2    7:11|food and one garment suffice them both winter and summer. As
10Tovma2    7:11|pikes, which they carry with them continuously in readiness against the
10Tovma3    1:0|rebellious; and what (happened) under them
10Tovma3    1:8|To them applies the saying of the
10Tovma3    1:13|and you will indubitably set them all under the yoke of
10Tovma3    1:14|harming the state, but force them, once taken captive, to renounce
10Tovma3    1:15|be carried out. By inflicting them with the bastinado and prison
10Tovma3    1:15|of wealth, you will subject them to your royal will and
10Tovma3    1:15|name of Christianity from among them.” 15 This counsel seemed pleasing to
10Tovma3    1:25|As general he appointed over them a man called Bugha, a
10Tovma3    1:32|shall befall those who oppose them. They will amass captives like
10Tovma3    2:1|two divisions and had commanded them to enter the land of
10Tovma3    2:5|murderous, carrion-eating dogs. Slaughtering them with the sword, they filled
10Tovma3    2:6|Taking some captive, they led them off with them. Setting fire
10Tovma3    2:6|they led them off with them. Setting fire to villages, towns
10Tovma3    2:7|the capital of Ṙshtunik’, marching them at the point of the
10Tovma3    2:7|fled. On catching up with them, many they put to the

10Tovma3    2:23|One of them took a sword, struck the
10Tovma3    2:26|know this, for many of them are still alive
10Tovma3    2:29|the danger that had befallen them
10Tovma3    2:31|town of Lokoruat, keeping with them the mass of captives all
10Tovma3    2:49|the Incarnate Saviour, carrying with them the letter written in this
10Tovma3    2:54|he was unable to resist them, not even a hundred men
10Tovma3    2:56|his orders. So he told them: “Arise, go to the general
10Tovma3    2:62|that: ’Set a sinner over them; let Satan stand on his
10Tovma3    2:66|affectionate compassion I would clasp them to my bosom with great

10Tovma3    2:80|So he removed them and brought them each to

10Tovma3    2:80|his native region, himself accompanying them, like Cyrus king of the
10Tovma3    2:81|Smbat: “He shall send to them a man who will save
10Tovma3    2:81|a man who will save them and by judgment will deliver
10Tovma3    2:81|and by judgment will deliver them.” And again: “He will bring
10Tovma3    3:2|tent-like canopies. He sent them to Persia, travelling via Atrpatakan
10Tovma3    3:2|Vaspurakan, “might catch up with them, snatch them away from the
10Tovma3    3:2|catch up with them, snatch them away from the troops, and
10Tovma3    3:3|sit in tribunal and bring them to a judicial interrogation and
10Tovma3    4:0|For what cause some of them attained holy martyrdom
10Tovma3    4:2|delivered into their hands. Attacking them with the sword, many they
10Tovma3    4:2|their families they rescued from them and brought through the pass
10Tovma3    4:3|Muslim troops gathered to attack them; surrounding and capturing them, they
10Tovma3    4:3|attack them; surrounding and capturing them, they brought them to the
10Tovma3    4:3|and capturing them, they brought them to the general and told
10Tovma3    4:4|When they led them before him, he urged them
10Tovma3    4:4|them before him, he urged them to abandon the worship of
10Tovma3    4:6|He spoke to them with cajoling words, but they
10Tovma3    4:6|not agree. He spoke with them in a severe fashion, but
10Tovma3    4:6|were not afraid. He tormented them with the bastinado, but they
10Tovma3    4:16|my sabbaths and not profane them, and who will keep my
10Tovma3    4:16|my covenantI shall lead them to my holy hill and
10Tovma3    4:16|holy hill and shall make them rejoice in the house of
10Tovma3    4:17|not from this fold; and them too must I lead hither
10Tovma3    4:17|shepherd. And I shall give them eternal life
10Tovma3    4:20|fifteen thousand men. He sent them in pursuit of Gurgēn, that
10Tovma3    4:27|Abuheshm, lord of El; with them was the army of Hamdoy
10Tovma3    4:28|asking him) to come to them without hesitation or fear and
10Tovma3    4:28|he would be honoured by them with gifts at the general’s
10Tovma3    4:29|he sent as messenger to them a certain Abdlay who was
10Tovma3    4:30|he (Gurgēn) should come to them without any hesitation. Two, three
10Tovma3    4:30|that he should come to them fearlessly and boldly. They themselves
10Tovma3    4:31|of about two miles from them, they had decided that if
10Tovma3    4:31|and we shall easily defeat them
10Tovma3    4:43|Although he promised to give them treasures, villages, and farms, sealed
10Tovma3    4:44|by any means to appease them but that they had given
10Tovma3    4:45|force marched out to oppose them like an indestructible rock, in
10Tovma3    4:58|broke their ranks, and turned them. Roaring like dragons, they struck
10Tovma3    4:62|struck the (enemy) troops, turned them, and put them to flight
10Tovma3    4:62|troops, turned them, and put them to flight. Some (of the
10Tovma3    4:62|become quite dark. They expelled them from Armenian territory, some in
10Tovma3    4:63|join in the battle with them to be captured but remained
10Tovma3    5:10|other musical instruments echoing around them, with a host of armed
10Tovma3    5:10|of Gurgēn, to rule over them in the place of his
10Tovma3    5:16|Christ before the caliph. Setting them on camels, they marched them
10Tovma3    5:16|them on camels, they marched them to Samarra and shut them
10Tovma3    5:16|them to Samarra and shut them in the royal prison where
10Tovma3    5:17|into captivity, she herself followed them, tearing her hair, rending her
10Tovma3    6:8|scarcely any way to draw them (the Armenians) into a deceitful
10Tovma3    6:9|So everyone ran to see them and to discover what the
10Tovma3    6:10|brought so he could interrogate them and hear their response
10Tovma3    6:12|before the king, he questioned them disdainfully, in jeering terms full
10Tovma3    6:15|and consideration to any of them as much as we have
10Tovma3    6:27|nobody at the time set them down in writing, as is
10Tovma3    6:27|reckon it appropriate to repeat them
10Tovma3    6:28|a bloodthirsty wild beast, ordered them to be taken out from
10Tovma3    6:33|terror of death fell on them; and especially since they did
10Tovma3    6:42|Then the tyrant ordered them to be bound in iron
10Tovma3    6:44|Grigor to be united with them and complete the number three
10Tovma3    6:44|might not be separated from them, as Christ note: “Where two
10Tovma3    6:44|there am I too among them
10Tovma3    6:46|would be easy to ensnare them like those who had turned
10Tovma3    6:46|ordered his servants to bind them with double chains and to
10Tovma3    6:46|double chains and to cast them into an underground dungeon
10Tovma3    6:50|who fear him and preserve them
10Tovma3    6:59|with your kingdom. He blessed them all, entrusted those far and
10Tovma3    7:3|forth a brief refutation of them from the Holy Scriptures, so
10Tovma3    8:4|treats as those abovethrough them he provides for the need
10Tovma3    8:6|country and its rulers; attacking them, he devoured like a dragon
10Tovma3    8:9|his own home, having commanded them all that when the spring
10Tovma3    8:12|tortures he would easily ensnare them among those lost and gone
10Tovma3    8:16|whit nor did he give them an opportunity to respond, but
10Tovma3    8:16|executioners to carry out on them the sentence of death, to
10Tovma3    8:16|sentence of death, to execute them immediately with the sword
10Tovma3    8:19|swords the executioners rushed on them like bloodthirsty wild beasts; they
10Tovma3    8:19|bloodthirsty wild beasts; they smote them with the sword like someone
10Tovma3    8:19|with a hatchet, mercilessly dismembering (them) limb by limb
10Tovma3    8:20|gifts Christ who had rendered them worthy to die for his
10Tovma3    8:25|there any foul smell on them
10Tovma3    8:26|their precious bodies and covered them with an honourable burial to
10Tovma3    9:1|gathered their sheep to drive them to the flowering meadows, and
10Tovma3    9:2|spread fear, threatening to afflict them (the Armenians) with even worse
10Tovma3    9:2|worse torments and to trample them as he neighed like a
10Tovma3    9:4|cities, and mountains, gathering around them the soldiers and inhabitants of
10Tovma3    10:2|appoint someone to rule over them at their own will. They
10Tovma3    10:3|Near to them is the mountain of the
10Tovma3    10:4|of Vrt’anēs, to preach to them the word of life. Many
10Tovma3    10:4|word of life. Many among them joined him and believed in
10Tovma3    10:6|messengers in disgrace, having given them a severe beating. Then they
10Tovma3    10:8|ordered his troops to attack them in battle. Approaching them, they
10Tovma3    10:8|attack them in battle. Approaching them, they arranged their line and
10Tovma3    10:18|had frequently waged war with them in previous battles, he had
10Tovma3    10:18|or the brave men in them. So in cajoling terms he
10Tovma3    10:21|and God was pleased with them, so too shall I deal
10Tovma3    10:27|some order should be brought them in haste from court
10Tovma3    10:28|full array, descended to attack them. He inflicted great damage, took
10Tovma3    10:29|They built strongholds, carefully surrounded them with walls, set up fortifications
10Tovma3    10:30|a few days Bugha commanded them to go out to battle
10Tovma3    10:30|treasury, which they brought with them loaded on camels
10Tovma3    10:33|the Muslims, Bugha again commanded them to go out to war
10Tovma3    10:33|from their elite clashed with them; they turned the Muslims in
10Tovma3    10:41|summit of the mountain, with them many standards one (for) each
10Tovma3    10:42|other; and everyone who saw them was stricken with great fear
10Tovma3    10:45|out to battle and confronted them. He was like a great
10Tovma3    10:46|Ałuank’ and fearlessly rushed upon them, but they held their ground
10Tovma3    10:47|line, broke their ranks, turned them back, and pushed them off
10Tovma3    10:47|turned them back, and pushed them off the mountain, inflicting tremendous
10Tovma3    10:48|my account. The war between them continued for nearly a full
10Tovma3    10:51|Then the two of them sent messages to the caliph
10Tovma3    10:54|Apumusē bidding him submit to them and go to Bugha. In
10Tovma3    11:2|place involved, either to make them known or to render them
10Tovma3    11:2|them known or to render them famous
10Tovma3    11:5|beast attacking lambs to devour them. He ordered them to be
10Tovma3    11:5|to devour them. He ordered them to be fastened to stakes
10Tovma3    11:5|rods brought, and they tortured them with the rods for a
10Tovma3    11:5|unbounded gifts, who had made them worthy to die for Christ’s
10Tovma3    11:6|have committed, as I hear them described by your accusers, that
10Tovma3    11:22|of the mountain and defeated them, they arrested the blessed Yovnan
10Tovma3    11:33|a short while he forgave them with an appearance of peaceful
10Tovma3    11:34|own tent, his troops surrounded them with swords, shields, lances, and
10Tovma3    11:34|feet into iron bonds, put them on camels, and brought them
10Tovma3    11:34|them on camels, and brought them to Samarra
10Tovma3    12:2|captivity of Bugha. Some of them proposed Gurgēn for the title
10Tovma3    13:3|Spirit, in order to preserve them safe and unsullied. As a
10Tovma3    13:7|the moment we have abbreviated them into few words, as Paul
10Tovma3    13:11|elite Greeks, and completely despoiled them, so that in his astonishment
10Tovma3    13:14|in the castles. Gurgēn opposed them numerous times, inflicting no small
10Tovma3    13:20|slain eight men and stripped them of their horses, arms, and
10Tovma3    13:20|made incursions in pursuit of them
10Tovma3    13:23|One of them stripped off his shoes, but
10Tovma3    13:27|fell on these and slaughtered them, filling the wide valley with
10Tovma3    13:31|called Jłmar and Sring, seized them, and captured Vasak, appropriating for
10Tovma3    13:33|losses on the Muslims, slaughtering them with the sword and bow
10Tovma3    13:36|Breaking their ranks he turned them back, and one wing of
10Tovma3    13:37|He pursued them and slaughtered them with such
10Tovma3    13:37|He pursued them and slaughtered them with such vigour that there
10Tovma3    13:37|troops pursuing the survivors expelled them from their land
10Tovma3    13:38|the force of Armenians, pursued them in flight as far as
10Tovma3    13:39|great fear had fallen upon them
10Tovma3    13:46|some others have written (about them) before us and have set
10Tovma3    14:3|for his creatures, humanely pitying them at the intercession of the
10Tovma3    14:4|seventieth year.” And he inclined them to the direction he wished
10Tovma3    14:7|He clothed them with garments, set (in their
10Tovma3    14:7|hands) a princely banner, girded them with a sword and belt
10Tovma3    14:7|adorned with precious stones, (gave them) a select and richly ornamented
10Tovma3    14:7|richly ornamented horse, then despatched them from the chamber in glorious
10Tovma3    15:2|Among them the blessed bishop Yovhannēs and
10Tovma3    15:6|interrogated and did violence to them both; but by the providence
10Tovma3    16:2|of Asorestan and Arabia; among them was included our valiant Ashot
10Tovma3    16:9|cried: “On, valiant Armenians; let them now recognise us and our
10Tovma3    18:0|which had been seized by them
10Tovma3    18:2|gathered a force to attack them in the castle
10Tovma3    19:12|we shall lay hands on them and remove them from rule
10Tovma3    19:12|hands on them and remove them from rule over Armenia
10Tovma3    20:12|camp, for Ahmat’s intentions concerning them were apparent
10Tovma3    20:32|conspirators (arrived), and Hasan with them. They beat down the outer
10Tovma3    20:34|he abandoned the siege, sending them proposals for peace
10Tovma3    20:52|in his refusal (to heed them), he passed on and lodged
10Tovma3    20:61|of the Lord was on them all. Each man escaped by
10Tovma3    20:62|slain (Derenik) they took with them in triumph
10Tovma3    20:64|valour acquired through fear sustain them
10Tovma3    20:69|the country; he dealt with them wisely and with profound skill
10Tovma3    20:69|rank he honoured and appeased them
10Tovma3    20:71|if anyone tries to change them, by God’s commandment he will
10Tovma3    20:72|if anyone wishes to affirm them, he will be unshakeable in
10Tovma3    22:4|the mountain. So some of them were buried in that spot
10Tovma3    22:11|and happily spent time with them in order to win them
10Tovma3    22:11|them in order to win them over
10Tovma3    22:18|troops of Awshin to attack them. They retreated into their fortresses
10Tovma3    22:22|war. But Apumruan came between them, and calmed the lines prepared
10Tovma3    22:24|a suitable occasion to seize them together and have them imprisoned
10Tovma3    22:24|seize them together and have them imprisoned in iron bonds in
10Tovma3    22:25|of Sherep’; and others with them. With their baggage and families
10Tovma3    22:28|who with great delight won them to himself as honourable men
10Tovma3    22:29|he had previously known (of them) by reports, and was very
10Tovma3    22:29|very well disposed to receive them. Having seized the region of
10Tovma3    22:30|of Armenia. So Ahmat’ received them and put them to forwarding
10Tovma3    22:30|Ahmat’ received them and put them to forwarding his own purpose
10Tovma3    23:10|rabble of foot soldiers with them. They say that the number
10Tovma3    25:1|after the other he constrained them to hasten individually to his
10Tovma3    25:8|all the prisoners by cutting them in half, terrifying all who
10Tovma3    26:2|the dead without remorse, dragging them from the graves after they
10Tovma3    26:3|knowledge of God, he delivered them to dishonourable intentions to work
10Tovma3    26:8|The angel of God dealt them incurable blows in the fashion
10Tovma3    28:0|and the subjection again of them both
10Tovma3    28:10|he might effect peace between them. Not being indifferent, but rather
10Tovma3    28:19|two and made peace between them; so Sahak, brother of the
10Tovma3    29:19|who have repented, and deliver them to their perdition
10Tovma3    29:31|angels to the apostles, bringing them the consoling and encouraging gospel
10Tovma3    29:47|prophet: “I shall live among them and shall go among them
10Tovma3    29:47|them and shall go among them
10Tovma3    29:48|God which is offered in them, especially as he is truly
10Tovma3    29:65|the attack which had befallen them. He returned a response full
10Tovma3    29:66|like a torrent to attack them, taking courage in Christ. In
10Tovma3    29:66|the survivors, some fled before them wherever they could escape, while
10Tovma3    29:68|Korchēik’the marzpan marched against them, and took control of Tambēr
10Tovma3    29:73|the sad news, he pursued them with one thousand men, fully
10Tovma3    29:76|flailing swords and mercilessly butchered them
10Tovma3    29:79|the best and oldest among them temporized over this, especially those
10Tovma3    29:80|misfortune and accident, and (begging them) not to wreak their vengeance
10Tovma4    1:43|groups Jewish singers, and had them chant the laments of the
10Tovma4    1:53|refrain from saying anything about them, and we shall hasten on
10Tovma4    2:10|night he seized and bound them. He sent Ashot and Gurgēn
10Tovma4    2:10|castle called Nkan, and had them imprisoned and guarded with great
10Tovma4    3:6|were Ashot was. Both of them had despaired of deliverance
10Tovma4    3:7|Liberating them, he gave (the) ring into
10Tovma4    3:10|totter, and he utterly consumed them
10Tovma4    3:12|the enemy; casting terror into them, he brought to a halt
10Tovma4    3:18|not accept, but he returned them since he had disregarded him
10Tovma4    3:33|having been unable to harm them because of the strength of
10Tovma4    3:37|before his eyes; and after them he too received his end
10Tovma4    3:42|Attacking them in the middle of the
10Tovma4    4:1|each other, when one of them abated, the other would shoot
10Tovma4    4:7|accepted the gifts and spared them; then the whole clan came
10Tovma4    4:8|he despatched an army against them. Having captured him, they brought
10Tovma4    4:9|dreamed of being afraid of them. Just as a lion sated
10Tovma4    4:9|mighty warrior had pity on them: first because he was merciful
10Tovma4    4:9|to wife. So he spared them, and having destroyed the structure
10Tovma4    4:9|its foundations, he confirmed for them their hereditary right to the
10Tovma4    4:22|the Artsrunik’ had struggled against them with mighty efforts, but had
10Tovma4    4:22|been unable to prevail over them at all. Especially the valiant
10Tovma4    4:24|burned in him to oppose them in war; afflicted by them
10Tovma4    4:24|them in war; afflicted by them, he (in turn) afflicted them
10Tovma4    4:24|them, he (in turn) afflicted them. So conceiving a grand plan
10Tovma4    4:24|to the sword, he exterminated them from the earth
10Tovma4    4:30|in the hope that through them God would prosper the battle
10Tovma4    4:34|few troops, and came upon them in the plain of Gerat
10Tovma4    4:35|many prisoners, they victoriously brought them before the prince
10Tovma4    4:42|envoys with messages passed between them, but no peaceful solution was
10Tovma4    4:42|peaceful solution was agreeable to them
10Tovma4    4:62|royal army to flight, making them stay inside their gates
10Tovma4    4:67|filled with friendship to lend them his assistance in their passage
10Tovma4    4:67|of Armenia. The monarch escorted them according to the royal request
10Tovma4    6:4|But because none of them did any deed worthy of
10Tovma4    6:4|out their names and weave them into the narrative of this
10Tovma4    7:5|two places and watched over them personally. One was at the
10Tovma4    7:8|attract the eyes to admire them. Therefore, the king undertook to
10Tovma4    8:3|high priest Hyrcanus, and settled them in our land. But all
10Tovma4    8:5|raised bastions, which had in them deep niches with pleasure seats
10Tovma4    8:12|anyone wished to look at them, as if honouring a king
10Tovma4    9:2|sword thousands and myriads of them. Advancing on others in war
10Tovma4    9:2|others in war, he put them to the sword and mercilessly
10Tovma4    9:2|the sword and mercilessly slew them, sometimes in person and sometimes
10Tovma4    9:4|the holy church, forming (with them) a temple of glory in
10Tovma4    10:15|river. And taking many of them prisoner, he sent some in
10Tovma4    10:16|more or less, and ordered them to be freed so that
10Tovma4    10:17|had seized plunder, but let them take openly whatever they had
10Tovma4    11:2|of his army to pursue them. On receiving the royal command
10Tovma4    11:2|off immediately, and came upon them when they least expected it
10Tovma4    11:2|armed with lances, and trampled them down like stubble of the
10Tovma4    11:2|the Armenian horses. Setting on them with the sword, they slaughtered
10Tovma4    12:10|firebrand to brigands and repelled them
10Tovma4    12:15|of enemies, ensnared and destroyed them
10Tovma4    13:7|Muslims, they did not permit them to ravage the land. For
10Tovma4    13:10|priests. He arranged allowances for them, and they lived in peace
10Tovma4    13:11|nation of Christians and put them to the sword
10Tovma4    13:14|of their children, and summoned them from their various provinces. They
10Tovma4    13:14|their various provinces. They gave them gifts, appointed them at the

10Tovma4    13:14|at the royal court, gave them great cities in exchange for
10Tovma4    13:20|For them was accomplished the saying of
10Tovma4    13:37|he cared for all, consoled them, and was compassionate to them
10Tovma4    13:37|them, and was compassionate to them as a father for his
10Tovma4    13:68|From them he received gifts and honour
10Tovma4    13:69|also organising cavalry and providing them with stipends. Thus he made
10Tovma4    13:82|in this bookand protected (them) in peace all the days
10Tovma4    13:84|as glorious and resplendent among them as is the sun among
10Tovma4    13:86|May the Lord God grant them many days and preserve them
10Tovma4    13:86|them many days and preserve them safe in soul and body
10Tovma4    13:88|down; and what is beyond them I do not know how
10Tovma4    13:112|to the whole world, grant them strength, wisdom and knowledge, patience

11Asogh1    2:5|our crowned Haykazeans begged (for them) the ancestors of Ashot from
11Asogh1    3:16|wives and children and brought them to the city of Dvin
11Asogh1    5:1|in Christ, tried to turn them to the Quran of Muḥammad
11Asogh1    5:2|with divine fire, and directed them to holy love and courageous
11Asogh1    5:2|Yusuf, having captured others, subjected them to torture
11Asogh1    5:3|slaughter, then the youngest of them, named Michael, a native of
11Asogh1    5:5|who, under an oath, offered them half the kingdom, shiny multicolored
11Asogh1    5:5|himself on their necks, kissed them and with flattering speeches urged
11Asogh1    5:5|and with flattering speeches urged them to renounce Christ
11Asogh1    5:7|When the evil (Yusuf) saw them unshakable in the faith of
11Asogh1    5:7|faith of Christ, he ordered them to be killed with a
11Asogh1    5:9|older brother: and both of them were crowned with a bloody
11Asogh1    7:10|footsteps of the enemy, put them to the sword and, capturing
11Asogh1    7:10|most arrogant Ber and brought them to the city of Kars
11Asogh1    7:15|The first place between them (brotherhoods) was occupied by the
11Asogh1    7:23|memory (of my stay with them) with the exact possible designation

11Asogh1    19:3|off in pursuit, shouting (after them): “what are you doing?” But
11Asogh1    19:3|unsheathing his damask sword, put them all on the spot, giving
11Asogh1    19:7|three detachments, (ordering) one of them to attack the right border

11Asogh1    32:3|made an unexpected attack on them; A young man Ashot, the

11Asogh1    37:5|Bagarat [III] went against them to the Bagrewand district and
11Asogh1    38:1|of the month, called by them Zlhejen, he ordered all the
11Asogh1    38:3|in different places: many of them went to Amida
11Asogh1    39:4|the wrath of God overtook them
11Asogh1    39:6|the Tayk’s to many of them ([i.e. e.] from the army of the
11Asogh1    39:8|about this, began to pursue them, inflicting a severe defeat on

11Asogh1    40:8|All of them went to Mount Sukaw in

11Asogh1    40:14|shouted for a fight, inviting them to march on the battlefield
11Asogh1    40:15|and Iberians, horrified, sent to them to say that they would

11Asogh1    40:28|severe defeat on them, betraying them to the edge of the

11Asogh1    42:6|board, which was forbidden to them by the metropolitan, as we
11Asogh1    42:12|to fight: there were [6,000] of them on foot, armed with spears
11Asogh1    42:13|vassals of the Tayk’s opposed them and were defeated. Here died
11Asogh1    42:13|of God was heavy on them for their arrogance
11Asogh1    42:15|delighted with their arrival, gave them a royal reception and, having
11Asogh1    42:15|royal reception and, having presented them with horses, mules, rich clothes
11Asogh1    42:15|of gold, let each of them go to his country
11Asogh1    42:19|places under his authority, giving them into the hands of faithful
11Asogh1    42:19|nobles with him to settle them in the Greek land, and
11Asogh1    45:6|brother. The emperor generously rewarded them with royal gifts, gold and
11Asogh1    48:6|the Lord rewards each of them in a righteous judgment
12Last1    1:14|was fulfilled with regard to them, thatIn the morning they
12Last1    1:16|This did not happen to them for no reason or in
12Last1    1:16|interested in promises (made to them) earlier by the emperor. Because
12Last1    1:16|righteous judgement of God requited them in accordance with their deeds
12Last1    1:18|great Isaiah in rebuke to them said, “Because this people have
12Last1    1:18|Lord is bringing up against them the waters of the River
12Last1    1:19|emperor, and he greatly glorified them, giving to Bagarat the honor
12Last1    1:19|that of Magister, and dismissed them in peace
12Last1    1:21|officials, judges and overseers in them. Then he went on his
12Last1    1:24|clan and family, and gave them places of habitation in the
12Last1    1:25|he were going to give them gifts and record their numbers
12Last1    1:25|their numbers, but then sent them without (chance of) return to
12Last1    1:26|may appropriately be recited about them, “The land was like the
12Last1    1:26|the garden of Eden before them, but after them, a desolate
12Last1    1:26|Eden before them, but after them, a desolate wilderness” [Joel II. 3]. We have
12Last1    2:8|of Abkhazia, came and reconciled them. He gave to the doubly
12Last1    2:12|and make horse-shoes (from them).” But at the appropriate time
12Last1    2:12|appropriate time righteous God punished them by means of the Byzantines
12Last1    2:14|requested auxiliary troops. He took them and came to his own
12Last1    2:24|the Byzantine army strike against them, turning them to flight
12Last1    2:24|army strike against them, turning them to flight
12Last1    2:26|directions of the land, commanding them with a wrathful order not
12Last1    2:27|while their lords fell before them, stabbed by swords. Alas this
12Last1    2:31|me that these things befell them in return for removing the
12Last1    2:31|it.” This bitter lesson befell them and those with them, deservedly
12Last1    2:31|befell them and those with them, deservedly
12Last1    2:34|hand and to visit on them yet more evil. And through
12Last1    2:35|why all of this befell them, whether it was a fitting
12Last1    3:9|the rebels, and loyal to them. But then suddenly, as a
12Last1    3:11|for there were many among them who though they followed after
12Last1    3:13|was his partisan. They brought them as far as the stronghold
12Last1    3:13|P’ers and Andronicos, they beheaded them
12Last1    3:14|the emperor had so commanded them. (This was because) during their
12Last1    3:14|this reason, the emperor ordered them to be beheaded at that
12Last1    4:4|Byzantines) unexpectedly, he could put them to flight in terror
12Last1    4:5|trouble, the Byzantine troops surrounded them and killed a countless multitude
12Last1    4:6|The (Byzantine) troops which pursued them (continued) killing until sunset. Then
12Last1    4:8|the hostages, promising to return them after three years. Then he
12Last1    4:11|into your hand; you showed them no mercy” [Isaiah 47.6]. Consequently, they were
12Last1    4:11|Mighty which was warring with them
12Last1    4:15|wanted him to rule over them. But not as David, (rather
12Last1    4:15|seek other causes (for putting them to death). Then (Basil) took
12Last1    5:1|and his advisors, and placed them in prison in a fortress
12Last1    5:3|of the land, and sent them to the emperor’s court. Seeing
12Last1    5:3|in joy, (the emperor) honored them with very great gifts and
12Last1    6:4|When the emperor saw them, he asked of his worthies
12Last1    9:2|summoned to her. She showed (them) the deceased emperor’s body and
12Last1    9:8|the protector of Israel deprived them of His aid. (The Persians
12Last1    9:8|did not arrive to help them (in Berkri). Then the Persian
12Last1    9:9|Persians) had many captives with them, Xtrik ordered that the ground
12Last1    9:10|was no way out for them, and since many of them
12Last1    9:10|them, and since many of them had died, they beseeched the
12Last1    9:10|the military commanders to permit them to depart unharmed to their
12Last1    9:11|leading to (a description) of them. With our own eyes we
12Last1    9:15|the authority would belong to them alone. Indeed, they did just
12Last1    9:16|of the city and informed them of what had transpired. When
12Last1    9:18|and beautiful mansions, and destroying them. But the agitated mob, thirsting
12Last1    9:18|in this) the sun helped them, by setting
12Last1    10:8|commanded (the people) to obey them because of the throne
12Last1    10:15|her young there and raise them without fear
12Last1    10:16|as did the churches in them. (These churches) with their glowing
12Last1    10:16|rest when gentle zephyrs cause them to ripple, gently embracing each
12Last1    10:17|language is sufficient to describe them? Their sweet songs and ceaseless
12Last1    10:25|Byzantines, and to go to them. Now Gagik with a few
12Last1    10:28|and their troops stood before them resembling spring gardens in their
12Last1    10:31|capturing everyone’s attention and astonishing them. The white steed, adorned with
12Last1    10:35|is none to cross over them” [Lamentations 1.4]. Such things were said when
12Last1    10:39|as cheese, and fools gulp them down
12Last1    10:40|not know why (Gagik) believed them, whether because of the oaths
12Last1    11:2|up a thick fog before them and stopped their advance. He
12Last1    11:2|that out of fear of them we learn, and they also
12Last1    11:2|the Hand which mightily prevented them was the same Hand which
12Last1    11:9|their sacrifices. And he answered them, ’Do you think that these
12Last1    11:9|of Joseph did not bother them
12Last1    11:10|to torments, those near to them should share their grief: “Weep
12Last1    11:10|sing out an accusation against them. The same (fate) befell us
12Last1    11:15|And they invited them, saying with the prophet: “All
12Last1    11:23|was plenty of prey for them everywhere, for the country before
12Last1    11:23|everywhere, for the country before them was like a lush garden
12Last1    11:24|by huge rocks (rolled on them), and their corpses tumbled down
12Last1    11:25|for the enemy had blockaded them on all sides. No love
12Last1    11:27|departed. But they left behind them a scene more pitiful and
12Last1    11:28|was no one to give them drink. Others who were terribly
12Last1    11:29|their parents’ embrace, and threw them to the ground, and (the
12Last1    11:29|of encampment was swarming with them
12Last1    11:30|The sides of some of them had torn open and their
12Last1    12:2|despised and the gifts given them as bribes were dishonored. Everyone
12Last1    12:11|be cut off to mock them. In place of a golden
12Last1    12:11|slavery, their captors shall give them these things
12Last1    12:12|of punishment are we, having them as an example and having
12Last1    12:13|heaven” [Matthew 5.20]. We did not surpass them in righteousness, but in sin
12Last1    12:19|had fled, (the Seljuks) burned them down, considering this a benevolent
12Last1    12:22|be there, who can count them
12Last1    12:25|is strong enough (to record them)? Much time and many words
12Last1    13:4|treasures onto camels and took them to a people from whom
12Last1    13:6|their midst, killing some of them, cutting (Liparit’s) horse’s sinews with
12Last1    13:7|killing an incalculable number of them; some they killed with the
12Last1    14:5|order to make him emulate them or in good faith, but
12Last1    15:4|the elderly lay fallen near them. By such deeds was the
12Last1    16:2|mind is able to enumerate them? The entire land was full
12Last1    16:5|did the children play before them. Herds did not flock together
12Last1    16:7|disobey the comforters, to saturate (them) with lamentations
12Last1    16:10|districts), and what transpired in them, my breathing becomes choked off
12Last1    16:11|infidels speedily swooped down upon them like birds, as mercilessly as
12Last1    16:14|cudgeled, were quickly separated from them
12Last1    16:16|and upon the area between them? Judge that one by my
12Last1    16:18|at all hazards, battled with them. By God’s mercy, the Byzantine
12Last1    16:20|Abas’ son, Gagik [1029-1064], came against them and wrought great slaughter in
12Last1    16:29|upon omnipotent God to aid them, disciplining himself with fasting and
12Last1    16:37|war) machinery and fought with them
12Last1    16:50|and the fire neither approached them, distressed, nor harassed them. This
12Last1    16:50|approached them, distressed, nor harassed them. This put sense into (the
12Last1    16:53|someone pointed it out to them, or because they craftily discovered
12Last1    17:2|afar, and occupied himself with them every day. Consequently the enemy
12Last1    17:5|but, keeping the purveyor of them, he took (that man) along
12Last1    17:7|who had none to help them. Then, taking booty and captives
12Last1    17:11|they killed (virtually) all of them, and did the same in
12Last1    17:13|the people were vexed at them
12Last1    17:17|gate-keeper would not accept them, since he recognized his own
12Last1    17:19|multitudinous hosts of troops before them, whose raiment shone with variegation
12Last1    17:24|trees and dense forests, let them mourn and lament our destruction
12Last1    17:28|I shall not be with them,” and also: “Though you beseech
12Last1    18:0|great princes, she said to them: “If any of you is
12Last1    18:3|they would suddenly fall on them, and with unheard of blows
12Last1    18:12|While (Michael) should have kept them happy with sweet words and
12Last1    18:12|and generous gifts and kept them loyally under his sway, on
12Last1    18:12|some princes (with him), considering them unfit to rule
12Last1    18:18|a beautiful appearance because of them, as is said (in Scripture

12Last1    18:29|there was none to oppose them. That prince because of whom
12Last1    18:30|no way out, (Iwane) gave them a guide from among his
12Last1    18:34|their intestines and livers, stuck them in their mouths and forced
12Last1    18:34|in their mouths and forced them to eat while they yet
12Last1    18:40|threats and encouragement, might urge them to resist the enemy, urging
12Last1    18:40|to resist the enemy, urging them to be brave martyrs, as
12Last1    18:42|the scintillating of swords above them, then the death verdict. Swords
12Last1    18:42|came upon some, fell upon them like beasts, pierced their hearts
12Last1    18:42|pierced their hearts and killed them instantly. As for the stout
12Last1    18:43|Seljuks) fashioned bowstrings out of them. Oh, how bitter this narration
12Last1    18:44|And only after so torturing them did (the Seljuks) kill them
12Last1    18:44|them did (the Seljuks) kill them. Who has heard of more
12Last1    18:45|buried (in hidden chambers), killing them after wickedly stabbing them through
12Last1    18:45|killing them after wickedly stabbing them through. The mountains all resounded
12Last1    19:3|among the vines, and buried them under the earth. Yet their
12Last1    19:3|their consciences would not allow them to gather or eat those
12Last1    19:4|his belongings, (the Seljuks) dug them out with great skill
12Last1    19:5|and awans, destroying all of them with fire, sword, and slavery
12Last1    21:0|teaching, and by means of them He judged us, in accordance
12Last1    21:4|to say itand polluted them not only with ravaging diseases
12Last1    21:6|clothing in place of serving them. Yet (the Seljuks) totally stripped
12Last1    21:6|we had done nothing to them. Alas and alack that inconsolable
12Last1    21:7|the Egyptians: first, God tried them for the bitter servitude by
12Last1    21:18|the city, (the Seljuks) put them all to the sword. They
12Last1    21:22|other little children and used them as targets, wickedly piercing and
12Last1    21:22|targets, wickedly piercing and killing them with lances and arrows. Nor
12Last1    21:23|of (the people’s) fear of them, and since snow still thickly
12Last1    21:25|was sitting on (one of) them, with a shield before him
12Last1    21:27|similarly sallied forth, battled with them, freed many captives, filled up
12Last1    21:27|forebear. This army struck at them, vanquished, killed (virtually) all of
12Last1    21:27|vanquished, killed (virtually) all of them, retrieved captives and booty, and
12Last1    22:1|that if he had ordered them to die, none would have
12Last1    22:5|Indeed our Lord Himself had them in mind (when He said
12Last1    22:7|is not easy to recognize them
12Last1    22:27|impious T’ondrakeans, and unites with them, shall bear the same judgement
12Last1    22:31|places, and he tarried with them. Having spent some time there
12Last1    23:3|father of all evil made them strong
12Last1    23:5|to the folk living about them to drink themselves to ruin
12Last1    23:6|its extensive confines he kept them free from want. Their director
12Last1    23:7|This prince (Vrverh) would visit them each year during the fast
12Last1    23:7|of Lent, and remain with them until Easter day itself, doing
12Last1    23:10|shall convince to remain with them through their honeyed words
12Last1    23:11|bound like dogs, and drag them off like a calf for
12Last1    23:12|Trapped by them, that lamentable Vrverh lost his
12Last1    23:14|fields which naturally belonged to them and which we spoke of
12Last1    23:18|immediately come forth, he gathered them. Seeing (the damaged Cross) they
12Last1    23:20|presbyters, and fathers, he took them and went and put to
12Last1    23:21|He further arrested six of them who were styled the vardapets
12Last1    23:21|serve as a notice to them, clear and recognizable to all
12Last1    23:21|in ignorance would commune with them, but rather that they be
12Last1    23:22|been his colleagues, then sent them off in peace
12Last1    23:23|the village.” Moreover (Vrverh) made them accountable for debts of many
12Last1    23:26|permit the soldiers to touch them
12Last1    23:27|taking the bishops, they ferried them to the other shore
12Last1    23:28|they had not returned to them the boat as they had
12Last1    23:36|at the trial and beseeched them to grant him (Vrverh), and
12Last1    23:37|comrades they found, after subjecting them to severe torments and beatings
12Last1    23:37|torments and beatings, they persecuted them and ruined their homes. The
12Last1    23:41|However, what is known about them, and what I have heard
12Last1    23:41|what I have heard about them is this: they do not
12Last1    23:42|atheistic assembly, heap curses upon them
12Last1    24:1|hand of the Lord ruled them too, or that the sword
12Last1    24:1|of the Omnipotent would near them
12Last1    24:3|punishment of people close to them and neighborspunishment which occurs
12Last1    24:4|at a distance learn from them and take care
12Last1    24:5|clouded over. Many had witnessed them with their own eyes and
12Last1    24:12|or drink, (the Seljuks) surrounded them and terrified them so much
12Last1    24:12|Seljuks) surrounded them and terrified them so much that unwillingly they
12Last1    24:13|rocks, while the mothers drenched them with tears and blood. Father
12Last1    24:14|earth, no one to bury them
12Last1    24:16|which has seized hold of them
12Last1    25:1|categories, we have omitted, leaving them to (writers) more eloquent and
12Last1    25:1|someone may request it of them, and (perhaps) I am encouraging
12Last1    25:12|and people and looked upon them with hatred. Yet, when he
12Last1    25:12|hatred. Yet, when he saw them fighting with dedication, when he
12Last1    25:12|he display great affection for them and promise them unheard of
12Last1    25:12|affection for them and promise them unheard of rewards
12Last1    25:14|against the enemy and stop them. And the Lord of power
12Last1    25:15|and princes. He took from them sword and ability, and gave
12Last1    26:11|our nakedness seemed evil to them. Thus, when they saw us
12Last1    26:13|the straitening trials visited upon them by the Lord
12Last1    26:15|must now revere and serve them day and night. Still, God
12Last1    26:20|Nor was there one of them (of the Seljuks) well-disposed
12Last1    26:21|Therefore, each morning dawned with them effecting yet another evil. Such
12Last1    26:23|and not (have to) withstand them after they have descended
