The only edition recorded by Beta maṣāḥǝft is Guerrier 1918 ('Canons') (https://github.com/BetaMasaheft/Works/blob/master/2001-3000/LIT2660Penit.xml). No English version located: HOLLIS Primo 'penitential Ethiopic' returns a single unrelated record (a Cambridge History of the Bible volume); K10plus returns 0 for 'Guerrier canons penitence' and 0 for 'canons penitence Guerrier' (https://sru.k10plus.de/opac-de-627?version=1.1&operation=searchRetrieve&query=pica.all%3Dcanons%20penitence%20Guerrier&maximumRecords=6&recordSchema=dc). The related Greek/Coptic penitential canon collections are Englished elsewhere, but this Ethiopic recension is not.
Short text, high value: it is the penitential canon that the Ethiopian Senodos places among the pseudo-apostolic material, i.e. the canonical basis for the sacrament of penance before the Fetha Nagast and the Faws manfasāwi manuals took over. Beta maṣāḥǝft lists no witnesses at the record itself (the text circulates inside Senodos manuscripts), so the manuscript base must be reconstructed from the Senodos witnesses.
