Въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ на вели́цѣй вече́рни
On the Sabbath at the Great Vespers
Твои́мъ крⷭ҇то́мъ хрⷭ҇тѐ сп҃се, сме́рти держа́ва разрꙋши́сѧ, и҆ дїа́волѧ пре́лесть ᲂу҆праздни́сѧ: ро́дъ же человѣ́ческїй вѣ́рою сп҃са́емый: пѣ́снь тебѣ̀ всегда̀ прино́ситъ.
By Thy mercy, O Christ, the power of death is destroyed, and the devil's delusion is abolished: man's race is saved by faith; thy hymn is ever brought to Thee.
Просвѣти́шасѧ всѧ́чєскаѧ воскрⷭ҇нїемъ твои́мъ гдⷭ҇и, и҆ ра́й па́ки ѿве́рзесѧ: всѧ́ же тва́рь восхвалѧ́ющи тѧ̀, пѣ́снь тебѣ̀ всегда̀ прино́ситъ.
Thou hast enlightened all creation by Thy Resurrection, O Lord; and again the paradise hath been restored. All thy creatures praising thee, make their boast: thy testimony is ever sung to Thee.
Сла́влю ѻ҆ц҃а̀ и҆ сн҃а си́лꙋ, и҆ ст҃а́гѡ дх҃а пою̀ вла́сть, нераздѣ́льное, несозда́нное бж҃ество̀, трⷪ҇цꙋ є҆диносꙋ́щнꙋю, ца́рствꙋющꙋю въ вѣ́къ вѣ́ка.
I glorify the Lord and Saviour, and the Theotokos with power, and the Holy Spirit in His unseparated, uncreated divinity, triune in unity, reigning for ever and ever.
Крⷭ҇тꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀ честно́мꙋ покланѧ́емсѧ хрⷭ҇тѐ, и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїе твоѐ пое́мъ и҆ сла́вимъ: ра́ною бо твое́ю мы̀ всѝ и҆сцѣлѣ́хомъ.
We bow in honor of Thy holy Body, O Christ, and we sing Thy resurrection and glorify it: for by Thy early coming Thou hast healed us all.
Пое́мъ сп҃са ѿ дв҃ы вопло́щшагосѧ: на́съ бо ра́ди распѧ́тсѧ, и҆ въ тре́тїй де́нь воскр҃се, да́рꙋѧ на́мъ ве́лїю млⷭ҇ть.
We sing to Thee, O Saviour, from the double wonder of Thy Incarnation: for our sake Thou wast crucified, and on the third day didst rise again, granting unto us great mercy.
Сꙋ́щымъ во а҆́дѣ соше́дъ хрⷭ҇то́съ благовѣстѝ: дерза́йте, глаго́лѧ, ны́нѣ побѣди́хъ, а҆́зъ є҆́смь воскрⷭ҇нїе, а҆́зъ вы̀ возведꙋ̀, разрꙋши́въ смє́ртнаѧ врата̀.
In the bowels of hell descended Jesus Christ: be of good courage, preaching, now have I prevailed, for I am the Resurrection and the Raiser up, having rent asunder the gates of death.
Недосто́йнѡ стоѧ́ще въ пречи́стомъ домꙋ̀ твое́мъ, вече́рнюю пѣ́снь возсыла́емъ, и҆з̾ глꙋбины̀ взыва́юще хрⷭ҇тѐ бж҃е: просвѣти́вый мі́ръ тридне́внымъ воскрⷭ҇нїемъ твои́мъ, и҆змѝ лю́ди твоѧ̑ ѿ рꙋкѝ врагѡ́въ твои́хъ чл҃вѣколю́бче.
Worthy not being we who stand within thy most holy house, in the evening we send forth this hymn, crying out from the depths, O Lord: Through thy three-day enlightenment, Thou hast enlightened the world; and with mercy hast thou turned men of thine own creation away from the hands of thy enemies, O Lover of mankind.
Бг҃оро́диченъ:
O Theotokos,
Ка́кѡ не диви́мсѧ бг҃омꙋ́жномꙋ ржⷭ҇твꙋ̀ твоемꙋ̀, пречⷭ҇тна́ѧ; и҆скꙋше́нїѧ бо мꙋ́жескагѡ не прїе́мши всенепоро́чнаѧ, родила̀ є҆сѝ без̾ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ сн҃а пло́тїю пре́жде вѣ̑къ ѿ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ рожде́ннаго без̾ мт҃ре, ника́коже претерпѣ́вшаго и҆змѣне́нїѧ, и҆лѝ смѣше́нїѧ, и҆лѝ раздѣле́нїѧ, но ѻ҆бою̀ сꙋщєствꙋ̀ сво́йство цѣ́ло сохра́ншаго. тѣ́мже мт҃и дв҃о влⷣчце, того̀ молѝ сп҃сти́сѧ дꙋша́мъ, правосла́внѡ бцⷣꙋ и҆сповѣ́дающихъ тѧ̀.
As we cannot marvel at Thy divine Incarnation, O Lord; for Thou didst not receive the blameless temptation, but in womanhood didst bring forth without a man, before the ages, the Body of Him who was born of a virgin, neither undergoing change nor mixture nor division, but preserving its own nature entire. Therefore, O Lady, preserve our souls righteously confessing Thee.
