І҆рмо́съ:
Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee! For Thou art life (жизнь) and we have no life (жизни) unless Thou givest it; Thou givest it always (выну), and takest it away suddenly (напрасно). We are a spectacle (позорище) to the stranger (странный) in Thy kingdom, for our heart is moved with compunction (умиление) when we behold Thee. For Thou art the Creator (тварь) of all things and hast given us power (область) over them; yet we use it not as Thou hast commanded, but according to our own will. Therefore, O Lord, have mercy on us (милость).
Ѡ҆бы́де на́съ послѣ́днѧѧ бе́здна, нѣ́сть и҆збавлѧ́ѧй, вмѣни́хомсѧ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́вцы заколе́нїѧ, сп҃сѝ лю́ди твоѧ̑, бж҃е на́шъ: ты́ бо крѣ́пость немощствꙋ́ющихъ и҆ и҆справле́нїе.
Let us fall down as sheep in prayer, O God our King: save Thy people, for Thou art the strength of those who are weak and the restoration thereof.
Согрѣше́нїемъ первозда́ннагѡ гдⷭ҇и, лю́тѣ ᲂу҆ѧзви́хомсѧ, ра́ною же и҆сцѣли́хомсѧ твое́ю, є҆́юже за ны̀ ᲂу҆ѧзви́лсѧ є҆сѝ хрⷭ҇тѐ: ты́ бо крѣ́пость немощствꙋ́ющихъ и҆ и҆справле́нїе.
Through the first sin of the uncreated Lord, we have become fierce enemies; but early did we also heal by Thy, O Lord, for which Thou hast suffered for us: for Thou art the strength of those who are weak and the correction of sinners.
Возве́лъ ны̀ є҆сѝ и҆з̾ а҆́да гдⷭ҇и, ки́та ᲂу҆би́въ всеѧ́дца, всеси́льне, твое́ю держа́вою низложи́въ тогѡ̀ си́лꙋ: ты́ бо живо́тъ, и҆ свѣ́тъ є҆сѝ, и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїе.
Exalted hath Thou, O Lord, from the abyss, O slayer of all-slaying death, with Thy mighty power Thou hast overthrown His strength: for Thou art life, and light, and resurrection.

O Theotokos,
Веселѧ́тсѧ ѡ҆ тебѣ̀ дв҃о пречⷭ҇таѧ, ро́да на́шегѡ пра́ѻтцы, є҆де́мъ воспрїе́мше тобо́ю, є҆го́же престꙋпле́нїемъ погꙋби́ша: ты́ бо чⷭ҇таѧ, и҆ пре́жде ржⷭ҇тва̀, и҆ по ржⷭ҇твѣ̀ є҆сѝ.
Rejoice with Thee, O Lord, the double portion of Thy chosen, the race of our fathers, whom having received from Thee, they destroyed through their transgression: for Thou art the Double Portion, and before Thee was the corn-ear; and in the corn-ear wast Thou.
И҆́нъ І҆рмо́съ: И҆з̾ ᲂу҆тро́бы і҆ѡ́нꙋ:
And from the bowels of Him:
Оу҆́мъ сы́й безстра́стенъ и҆ невеще́ственъ, примѣша́етсѧ хрⷭ҇то́съ бг҃ъ человѣ́ческомꙋ ᲂу҆мꙋ̀, хода́тайствꙋющемꙋ бж҃е́ственнымъ є҆стество́мъ, пло́ти же дебельство́мъ, и҆ всемꙋ̀ мнѣ̀ непрело́женъ весьма̀ соедини́сѧ: да сп҃се́нїе всемꙋ̀ мнѣ̀ па́дшемꙋ пода́стъ распина́емь.
Па́даетъ прельсти́всѧ а҆да́мъ, и҆ ꙾запѧ́выйсѧ сокрꙋша́етсѧ꙾, наде́ждою ѡ҆бо́лганъ сы́й дре́вле ѡ҆боже́нїѧ: но востае́тъ соедине́нїемъ сло́ва ѡ҆божа́емь, и҆ стра́стїю безстра́стїе прїе́млетъ, на прⷭ҇то́лѣ ꙗ҆́кѡ сн҃ъ сла́витсѧ, сѣдѧ́й со ѻ҆ц҃е́мъ же и҆ дх҃омъ.
Falling into spiritual deception, Adam, groaning and sighing, is crushed; hoping in the ancient confession of faith: but he rises by the union of the sanctifying Word, and by passionless suffering receives, for thus shall he be glorified, sitting with the Father and the Spirit.
Бг҃оро́диченъ:
O Theotokos,
Нѣ́дръ не ѿстꙋ́пль безнача́льна роди́телѧ, въ нѣ́дрѣхъ чⷭ҇тыѧ ѻ҆трокови́цы водворѧ́етсѧ, и҆ быва́етъ, и҆́же пре́жде безма́теренъ, без̾ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ воплоща́емый, и҆́же пра́вдою црⷭ҇твꙋѧй бг҃ъ: сегѡ̀ неродосло́венъ стра́шный ро́дъ и҆ неизрече́ненъ.
Hidest not the Fount, O Unbeginning Parent, in its depths the Virgin's offspring is established, and where before without a Mother, without a Father, it was made incarnate by the Truth: this dread birth and ineffable.
И҆́нъ І҆рмо́съ: Ѡ҆бы́де на́съ:
And Irmos: Have mercy on us:
Предстоѧ́тъ раболѣ́пнѣ ржⷭ҇твꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀ чи́ни нбⷭ҇нїи, дивѧ́щесѧ досто́йнѡ твоемꙋ̀ безсѣ́менномꙋ рождествꙋ̀ приснодв҃о: ты́ бо чⷭ҇таѧ, и҆ пре́жде ржⷭ҇тва̀, и҆ по ржⷭ҇твѣ̀ є҆сѝ.
Servants of the Lord stand before Thy mystery, O heavenly, beholding with awe Thy ineffable Birth: for Thou didst become incarnate, both before the Incarnation and by the Incarnation.
Воплоти́сѧ пре́жде сы́й безпло́тенъ, сло́во и҆з̾ тебѐ пречⷭ҇таѧ, всѧ́чєскаѧ во́лею творѧ́й, безтѣле́сныхъ вѡ́инства приведы́й ѿ небытїѧ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ всеси́ленъ.
Let Thy Word, begotten before the beginning of time, which Thou hast spoken, by Thine all-powerful will, bring forth from non-existence the无形力量的军队，使它们聚集于彼岸。因为汝无所不能。
Оу҆мерщвле́нъ бы́сть вра́гъ живоно́снымъ твои́мъ плодо́мъ бг҃облагода́тнаѧ: и҆ попра́нъ бы́сть а҆́дъ проѧвле́ннѣ, и҆ и҆̀же во ᲂу҆́захъ свободи́хомсѧ. тѣ́мже вопїю̀: стра̑сти разрꙋшѝ се́рдца моегѡ̀.
Be thou slain, O Enemy, by the fruit of Thy life-giving Incarnation, the blessed Gift of God: and let it be manifest, O Adversary, that we have been set at liberty from thy bonds. Therefore I cry: Break, O passions, the heart of my soul.
