Regarding the Nehumman a specific martyr or holy figure, it is a great law of the Aramaeans often used here to refer to the Roman/Byzantine-era Christians that was spoken of at the time of death. How it was translated and performed by the hands of the Syriacs Syriac-speaking Christians into speech, I did not separate from the hands of the Aramaeans. These foolish ones are alive from Nehumman, and as for the revelation and the pragma legal matter/document of his, the whole of it is a great, small [matter of] our Lord God; and let it be from Nehumman for speech. Howbeit, he who made and arranged it, and it is done among all the Aramaeans, it was not translated, and it was translated among the Syriac scribes regarding the speech of the Aramaeans. For it is not dear at the time from that of the Aramaeans as a whole. For they are the books of the Aramaean scribes, which the Aramaean made as a small thing; in the lives of Nehumman, all the speech of the Aramaeans shall be upon them. Howbeit, at the time of the Aramaeans of the Aramaeans, and the mouth of the Aramaeans spoke, as in this way. I, however, as they were: he brought out and separated a great discourse on the language of the law of the Aramaeans. And the great one from God did: that at the time of Nehumman, of sin over all of it. And the Aramaeans at the time and of the Aramaeans spoke, and let it be that God alone was. And he called from the Syriacs: it shall be translated in the books that he wrote, of the Aramaeans over all the world in Aramaean.
And in that same year he spoke, the book was translated: and the Aramaeans and the Syriacs [spoke] concerning the law of the Aramaeans indeed. And it happened, however, that he departed from the world of the Aramaeans, when the discourse he made was upon our Lord. And all the Aramaeans spoke their faces i.e., they mourned/lamented.
