And if ye do after this manner, ye shall perform a great work, and shall become fathers of the fatherless, and shall find a reward, in recompence for this your service, from the Lord God. But if any man be lifted up, and despise the fatherless, and say, I indeed will not marry the poor orphan ; let him understand who it is that is the Father of the fatherless and the Avenger of the widow. For he who thinketh to do thus, shall scatter his wealth to another ; and the Scripture shall be fulfilled against him, which saith. That which the Saints have not eaten, the Pharisees shall eat : as Isaiah saith. Your land, strangers and enemies shall devour it before your face. XVIII. That it is required of Bishops to provide for Widotos and Orphans. Ye also, O Bishops, provide for the sustenance of the poor, and take care for the orphans, and give them the substance of their fathers for an inheritance; and to the widows also, the substance of their husbands : and for the young men and virgins provide marriages, as it is fitting : and to them that work give their recompence ; and find a dweUing for the poor stranger ; and atisfy the hungry, 122

About this edition
Recorded completeness: Complete supplied Platt 1834 historical English translation window, printed pp.1–131, with title, English preface, historical Latin canon table, English section contents and English notes. Main bilingual pages: retained source LINE indices separate readable lower English text from the upper Ethiopic OCR; exact boundary map saved with source. Final supplied page ends mid-sentence and the source marks its manuscript text incomplete; missing text is not invented. Greek/Arabic introductory specimens, garbled Ethiopic section column and separate Ethiopic vocabulary appendix are excluded from this English Reader edition, while full original scan XML/TXT remains immutable. Notes may quote imperfectly OCRed ancient-language tokens; no cleaned Ge’ez original-language edition is claimed.. Available reading sections are listed below.
