(Holiday January 6)
In the Jordan I am baptized to You, Lord, / Trinitarian adoration appears: / For Your Parents’ voice testifies to You, / Named Your beloved Son, / And the Spirit in the form of a dove, / Knowing Your words statement. / Christ God appears, // and the world is enlightened, glory to You.
In Russian
When You, Lord, were baptized in the Jordan, the worship (glorification) of the Holy Trinity was revealed: for the voice of the Parent testified of You, calling You the beloved Son, and the Spirit in the form of a dove confirmed the truth of (this) word. Christ God, who appeared into the world, glory to You.

That during the Baptism of the Lord all three faces of the Holy Trinity appeared to people: God the Father in the voice, the Son of God in the flesh, and the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove.
