The translation does not agree with that of Paul of Tella, nor has it been followed in his revision by Jacob of Edessa
Compare the previously quoted excerpt (from Ch. 28:14-15,fol. 74b) with Middeldorpf, Codex Syriaco-hexaplaris, p. 104, and Add 14441, fol. 26a [...] :ܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ̣ ܫܡ̣ܥܘ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܓܒܪ̈ܐ ܡܡ̈ܝܩܢܐ̇. ܪ̈ܝܫܢܘܗܝ ܘܫ̈ܠܝܛܘܗܝ ܕܥܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ. ܡܛܠ ܕܐܡ̣ܪܬܘܢ ܕܥܒܝܕ ܠܢ ܕܝܐܬܝܩܐ ܥܡ ܫܝܘܠ: ܘܡܩ̣ܡ ܠܢ ܩܝ̈ܡܐ ܥܡ ܡܘܬܐ: ܥܠܥܠܐ ܕܓܪܘܦܝܐ ܐܢ ܬܥܒ̣ܪ ܠܐ ܬܐܬܐ ܥܠܝܢ: ܡܛܠ ܕܣܝܼܡ ܠܢ ܥܠ ܕܓܠܘܬܐ ܬܘܟܠܢܢ: ܘܒܫܘܩܪܐ̇ ܘܒܕܓܠܘܬܐ ܡܣܬܬܪܝܢܢ
The portions that remain are: ch. 28:3—17, 42:17—49:18, and 66:11—23. These fragments have been edited by Dr.Ceriani, with the corresponding portions of the text of Jacob, in the Monumenta Sacra et Profana opera Collegii Doctorum Bibl. Ambros., t. v. fasc. i., pp. 1-40. He shows that they are probably a remnant of the Philoxenian version. See also his memoir,“Le Edizioni e i Manoscritti delle Versioni Siriache del Vecchi Testamento,” p. 17.
This manuscript exhibits but few of the critical marks of the Hexapla , and there are no marginal variants or annotations.

Vellum, about 8 3/4 in. by 5, consisting of 14 leaves (Add. 17,106, foll. 74—87), several of which are much stained and torn, espe¬cially foll. 74—76, 86, and 87. There are 26 lines in each page.
