Yrmos: Life's Sea / uplifted by the tempest of perils, / to thy calm harbor I now come: / raise up from death my life, O Full of Mercy.

Распина́емь влⷣко, гвоздьмѝ ѹ҆́бѡ / клѧ́твꙋ ю҆́же на на́съ потреби́лъ є҆сѝ: / копїе́мъ же пробода́емь въ ребро̀, / а҆да́мово рꙋкописа́нїе растерза́въ, мі́ръ свободи́лъ є҆сѝ.
Master, pierced by the nails and by the spear's point,
thou didst invoke a curse upon us:
thou wast pierced with the spear,
tearing open Adam's writing, and freed the world.

Vespers: Glory to Thee, O Lord, for Thy resurrection glorified Thee.
Ґда́мъ низведе́сѧ, ле́стїю запѧ́тъ бы́въ, ко а҆́довѣ про́пасти: / но и҆́же є҆стество́мъ, бг҃ъ же и҆ млⷭ҇тивъ, / сше́лъ є҆сѝ на взыска́нїе, / и҆ на ра́мꙋ поне́съ, совоскр҃си́лъ є҆сѝ.
When he descended, by deceit being enticed,
unto the depths of hell:
but thou, by nature, O God and merciful,
didst descend for man's recovery,
and upon the cross didst bear,
resurrecting thyself.
Припѣ́въ: Прест҃а́ѧ бцⷣе, сп҃сѝ на́съ.
Pripev: Presvytori Theotokos, spaseniya nas.
Бг҃оро́диченъ: Пречⷭ҇таѧ влⷣчце, / ро́ждшаѧ человѣ́кѡмъ ко́рмчїю гдⷭ҇а, / страсте́й мои́хъ непостоѧ́нное и҆ лю́тое ѹ҆толѝ смꙋще́нїе, / и҆ тишинꙋ̀ пода́ждь се́рдцꙋ моемꙋ̀.
Theotokos: Reading the Lady,
Who gave birth to the Rudder of men,
Soothe with unceasing and bitter compunction my passions,
And grant me silence in my heart.
И҆́нъ. Припѣ́въ: Сла́ва гдⷭ҇и, крⷭ҇тꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀ чⷭ҇тно́мꙋ и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїю.
Andronicus. Chant: Glory to Thee, O Lord, for Thy merciful and life-giving Incarnation.
Хрⷭ҇тоꙋбі́йца и҆ прⷪ҇рокоꙋбї́йца бы́сть є҆вре́йское мно́жество: / ꙗ҆́кѡ бо прⷪ҇ро́ки дре́вле и҆́стины сꙋ́щыѧ та̑йныѧ лꙋчѝ, ѹ҆би́ти не ѹ҆боѧ́сѧ: / си́це и҆ ны́нѣ гдⷭ҇а, є҆го́же проповѣ́дахꙋ ѻ҆нѝ тогда̀, / за́вистїю влеко́ми ѹ҆би́ша. / но на́мъ бы́сть живо́тъ ѹ҆мерщвле́нїе є҆гѡ̀.
The Saviour and Prophet-killer was the Jewish multitude:
For the prophets of old, being true mysteries of light, could not slay them:
Even so now, He whom we preached then,
were drawn by envy to kill Him.
But unto us is given a life made death to Him.
Припѣ́въ: Сла́ва гдⷭ҇и, крⷭ҇тꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀ чⷭ҇тно́мꙋ и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїю.
Vespers: Glory to Thee, O Lord, for Thy merciful compassion and resurrection.
Ꙗ҆́тъ бы́лъ є҆сѝ, но не ѹ҆держа́нъ сп҃се во гро́бѣ, / а҆́ще бо и҆ во́лею вкꙋси́лъ є҆сѝ сме́рти сло́ве, / но воскрⷭ҇лъ є҆сѝ ꙗ҆́кѡ бг҃ъ безсме́ртенъ, / совоздви́гнꙋвый ѹ҆́зники сꙋ́щыѧ во а҆́дѣ, / и҆ ра́дость жена́мъ вмѣ́стѡ печа́ли пре́жнїѧ, па́ки премѣни́вый.
There was a death, but not held in the power of Hades,
for though thou didst taste the word of death by thy will,
yet wast thou raised by God the Immortal,
raising up the prisoners that were in hades,
and joy instead of former grief, again changing it.
Припѣ́въ: Прест҃а́ѧ бцⷣе, сп҃сѝ на́съ.
Pripev: Preshta Theotokos, spasynas.
Бг҃оро́диченъ: Безче́стенъ тво́й и҆ скꙋ́денъ ꙗ҆ви́сѧ ви́дъ плотскі́й / па́че человѣ́кѡвъ, во вре́мѧ стра́сти: / и҆́бо бж҃ества̀ сꙋщество́мъ, красе́нъ добро́тою дв҃дꙋ показа́сѧ: / но жезло́мъ твоегѡ̀ црⷭ҇твїѧ врагѡ́въ сотры́й крѣ́пость, глаго́лаше чⷭ҇таѧ: / ѽ сн҃е мо́й и҆ бж҃е, ѿ гро́ба воста́ни.
Theotokos: Dishonorable is thy and meagre the sight of thy body / more than men’s in the time of passion: / for divinity, by its very essence, doth show itself fair with goodness; / but with Thy rod Thou smitest the strength of Thine enemies, speaking thus, reading: / From my flesh and from the grave arise.
И҆́нъ. Припѣ́въ: Прест҃а́ѧ бцⷣе, сп҃сѝ на́съ.
Andronicus. Chanting: When Thou didst ascend, save us, Thee beseech.
Вели́кїй преднаписа̀ во прⷪ҇ро́цѣхъ мѡѷсе́й тѧ̀, / ковче́гъ, и҆ трапе́зꙋ, и҆ свѣ́щникъ, и҆ рꙋ́чкꙋ, / ѡ҆бра́знѡ назна́менꙋѧ воплоще́нїе, / є҆́же и҆з̾ тебѐ вы́шнѧгѡ, мт҃и дв҃о.
Great was the prefiguration in the Prophets concerning Moses, / the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the rod, / fashioned as a type of the Incarnation, / which came from Thee, O Thou of heights, two-fold.
Сла́ва ѻ҆ц҃ꙋ̀ и҆ сн҃ꙋ и҆ ст҃о́мꙋ д¦ꙋ.
Glory to Thee, and to Thy Son, and to Thy Holy Spirit.
Ѹ҆мерщвлѧ́етсѧ сме́рть, и҆ тлѣ́нїе ѹ҆пражнѧ́етсѧ / а҆да́мова ѡ҆сꙋжде́нїѧ, ѽ влⷣчце! / плодꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀ прирази́вшеесѧ: / жи́знь бо родила̀ є҆сѝ, / ѿ и҆стлѣ́нїѧ и҆збавлѧ́ющꙋю пою́щихъ тѧ̀.
Death doth wither, and corruption exerciseth Adam's condemnation, O Lady!
The fruit of thy travail hath been brought forth:
For life thou didst bear,
From the withering, delivering them that sing to thee.
И҆ ны́нѣ и҆ при́снѡ и҆ во вѣ́ки вѣкѡ́въ. а҆ми́нь.
And now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Зако́нъ и҆знемо́же, и҆ сѣ́нь ми́мѡ и҆́де, / па́че ѹ҆ма̀ и҆ смы́сла ꙗ҆́вльшейсѧ мѝ бл҃года́ти, / є҆́же ѿ тебѐ дв҃о ржⷭ҇тва̀, / бг҃а и҆ сп҃са, многопѣ́таѧ.
The Law and commandment weakened me, and a shadow went over me,
more than darkness by which the great mercy of Thy good pleasure
hath two-folded me, O God, giver of life and salvation, much-praised.
Катава́сїа: Бж҃е́ственное сїѐ и҆ всечестно́е, / соверша́юще пра́зднество, / бг҃омꙋ́дрїи бг҃омт҃ре, / прїиди́те рꙋка́ми воспле́щимъ, / ѿ неѧ̀ ро́ждшагосѧ бг҃а сла́вимъ.
Blessed be the Godhead and Most Honored,
Celebrating the feast,
By the God's wisdom, come with your hands to praise,
From not having been born, glorify Him who was born of Theotokos.
Гдⷭ҇и поми́лꙋй. [Три́жды.]
O Lord, have mercy. [Three times.]
Моли́твами ст҃ы́хъ ѻ҆тє́цъ на́шихъ, гдⷭ҇и і҆и҃се хрⷭ҇тѐ, бж҃е на́шъ, поми́лꙋй на́съ, а҆ми́нь.
By the prayers of our holy Mother, O Jesus Christ, God, have mercy on us, amen.
