Οἱ Μάρτυρές σου Κύριε, ἐν τῇ ἀθλήσει αὐτῶν, στεφάνους ἐκομίσαντο τῆς ἀφθαρσίας, ἐκ σοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν· σχόντες γὰρ τὴν ἰσχύν σου, τοὺς τυράννους καθεῖλον, ἔθραυσαν καὶ δαιμόνων, τὰ ἀνίσχυρα θράση. Αὐτῶν ταῖς ἱκεσίαις, Χριστὲ ὁ Θεός, σῶσον τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.	Your Martyrs, O Lord, were worthily awarded by You * the crowns of incorruption, in that they contested for You our immortal God. * Since they possessed Your power, they defeated the tyrants, * dashing the demons’ powerless displays of defiance. * O Christ God, at their fervent entreaties, save our souls.

O Theotokos, through you became manifest to us on earth the mystery, which was hid from eternity, and which the Angels themselves knew not: that God, uniting natures without confusion, becomes a man and accepts crucifixion for our salvation voluntarily. By virtue of this, resurrecting man whom He had first created, He saved our souls from death. [SD]

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy; and according to the abundance of Your compassion, blot out my transgression. Wash me thoroughly from my lawlessness and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my lawlessness, and my sin is always before me. Against You only have I sinned and done evil in Your sight; that You may be justified in Your words, and overcome when You are judged. For behold, I was conceived in transgressions, and in sins my mother bore me. Behold, You love truth; You showed me the unknown and secret things of Your wisdom. You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be cleansed; You shall wash me, and I will be made whiter than snow. You shall make me hear joy and gladness; my bones that were humbled shall greatly rejoice. Turn Your face from my sins, and blot out all my transgressions. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me with Your guiding Spirit. I will teach transgressors Your ways, and the ungodly shall turn back to You. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue shall greatly rejoice in Your righteousness. O Lord, You shall open my lips, and my mouth will declare Your praise. For if You desired sacrifice, I would give it; You will not be pleased with whole burnt offerings. A sacrifice to God is a broken spirit, a broken and humbled heart God will not despise. Do good, O Lord, in Your good pleasure to Zion, and let the walls of Jerusalem be built; then You will be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, with offerings and whole burnt offerings; then shall they offer young bulls on Your altar.

Everything You brought on us and all You did to us, You did in true judgment. You delivered us into the hands of lawless and rebellious enemies and to an unjust king, the most evil in any land.
Καὶ νῦν οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἀνοῖξαι τὸ στόμα ἡμῶν, αἰσχύνη καὶ ὄνειδος ἐγενήθημεν τοῖς δούλοις σου καὶ τοῖς σεβομένοις σε.	Now it is not for us to open our mouth, for this has become a shame and disgrace to Your servants and to those who worship You.
Μὴ δὴ παραδῴης ἡμᾶς εἰς τέλος, διὰ τὸ ὄνομά σου τὸ ἅγιον, καὶ μὴ διασκεδάσῃς τὴν διαθήκην σου, καὶ μὴ ἀποστήσῃς τὸ ἔλεός σου ἀφʼ ἡμῶν, διὰ Ἀβραὰμ τὸν ἠγαπημένον ὑπὸ σοῦ, καὶ διὰ Ἰσαὰκ τὸν δοῦλόν σου, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ τὸν ἅγιόν σου.	For Your name’s sake, do not hand us over to the end, and do not reject Your covenant. Do not withdraw Your mercy from us for the sake of Abraham, who is loved by You, and for the sake of Isaac, Your servant, and of Israel, Your holy one.
Οἷς ἐλάλησας πληθῦναι τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν, ὡς τὰ ἄστρα τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ὡς τὴν ἄμμον τὴν παρὰ τὸ χεῖλος τῆς θαλάσσης.	As You spoke to them, saying that You would multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand along the seashore.
Ὅτι, Δέσποτα, ἑσμικρύνθημεν παρὰ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη καὶ ἐσμεν ταπεινοὶ ἐν πάσῃ γῇ σήμερον, διὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν.	Yet we have been diminished in number, O Master, more than all the nations, and we are humbled in all the earth today because of our sins.
Καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τούτῳ ἄρχων, καὶ προφήτης, καὶ ἡγούμενος, οὐδὲ ὁλοκαύτωσις, οὐδὲ θυσία, οὐδὲ προσφορά, οὐδὲ θυμίαμα, οὐ τόπος τοῦ καρπῶσαι ἐνώπιόν σου, καὶ εὑρεῖν ἔλεος.	At this time, there is no prince, no prophet, and no leader; there is no whole burnt offering, no sacrifice, no offering, and no incense; there is no place to bear fruit before You and to find mercy.
Ἀλλʼ ἐν ψυχῇ συντετριμμένῃ καὶ πνεύματι ταπεινώσεως προσδεχθείημεν.	Yet with a contrite soul and humbled spirit, may we receive mercy.
Ὡς ἐν ὁλοκαυτώμασι κριῶν καὶ ταύρων, καὶ ὡς ἐν μυριάσιν ἀρνῶν πιόνων, οὕτω γενέσθω ἡ θυσία ἡμῶν εὐπρόσδεκτος ἐνώπιόν σου σήμερον, καὶ ἐκτελείσθω ὄπισθέν σου· ὅτι αἰσχύνη τοῖς πεποιθόσιν ἐπὶ σέ.	As with whole burnt offerings of rams and bulls, and as with thousands of fatted lambs, so let this be our sacrifice before You today, and may it be accomplished for those who follow You; for there is no shame for those who trust in You.
Καὶ νῦν ἐξακολουθοῦμεν ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ, καὶ φοβούμεθά σε, καὶ ζητοῦμεν τὸ πρόσωπόν σου, μὴ καταισχύνῃς ἡμᾶς.	Now we are following You with all our heart, and we fear You and seek Your face. Do not put us to shame.
Ἀλλὰ ποίησον μεθʼ ἡμῶν κατὰ τὴν ἐπιείκειάν σου, καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ ἐλέους σου.	But deal with us according to Your kindness and according to the abundance of Your mercy.
Ἐξελοῦ ἡμᾶς κατὰ τὰ θαυμάσιά σου, καὶ δὸς δόξαν τῷ ὀνόματί σου, Κύριε.	Deliver us by Your wondrous works and give glory to Your name, O Lord.
Καὶ ἐντραπείησαν πάντες οἱ ἐνδεικνύμενοι τοῖς δούλοις σου κακά, καὶ καταισχυνθείησαν ἀπὸ πάσης δυναστείας, καὶ ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτῶν συντριβείη.	May all those who inflict evils upon Your servants be put to shame and humiliated in their power; and let their strength be crushed.
Καὶ γνώτωσαν ὅτι σὺ εἶ Κύριος, Θεὸς μόνος καὶ ἔνδοξος, ἐφʼ ὅλην τὴν οἰκουμένην.	Let them know that You alone are the Lord God and glorious over all the inhabited earth.
Καὶ οὐ διέλιπον οἱ ἐμβαλόντες αὐτοὺς ὑπηρέται τοῦ βασιλέως, καίοντες τὴν κάμινον νάφθῃ καὶ πίσσῃ καὶ στυππίῳ καὶ κληματίδι.	Now the king’s servants who cast them in did not cease to stoke the furnace with naphtha, pitch, coarse fiber, and brushwood.
Καὶ διεχεῖτο ἡ φλὸξ ἐπάνω τῆς καμίνου ἐπὶ πήχεις τεσσαράκοντα ἐννέα, καὶ διώδευσε, καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν οὓς εὗρε περὶ τὴν κάμινον τῶν Χαλδαίων.	The flame shot forty-nine cubits above the furnace, and it broke out and burned those it found around the furnace of the Chaldeans.
Ὁ δὲ ἄγγελος Κυρίου συγκατέβη ἅμα τοῖς περὶ τὸν Ἀζαρίαν εἰς τὴν κάμινον, καὶ ἐξετίναξε τὴν φλόγα τοῦ πυρὸς ἐκ τῆς καμίνου.	But the Angel of the Lord went down into the furnace to join Azariah and his companions, and shook off the fiery flame of the furnace.
Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ μέσον τῆς καμίνου ὡς πνεῦμα δρόσου διασυρίζον, καὶ οὐχ ἥψατο αὐτῶν καθόλου τὸ πῦρ, οὐδὲ ἐλύπησεν, οὐδὲ παρηνώχλησεν αὐτούς.	He made the inside of the furnace to be as though a dew-laden breeze were blowing through it, so the fire did not touch them at all, or cause them pain, or trouble them.
Τότε οἱ Τρεῖς, ὡς ἐξ ἑνὸς στόματος, ὕμνουν καὶ εὐλόγουν καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν Θεὸν ἐν τῇ καμίνῳ, λέγοντες·	Then the three, as if with one mouth, sang, glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying: [SAAS]

Ἦχος δʹ.	Mode 4.

Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ταῖς δυναστείαις αὐτοῦ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς μεγαλωσύνης αὐτοῦ.	Praise Him for His mighty acts; praise Him according to the abundance of His greatness. [SAAS]
Τίς οὐκ ἐξίσταται ὁρῶν, ἅγιοι Μάρτυρες, τὸν ἀγῶνα τὸν καλόν, ὃν ἠγωνίσασθε; πῶς ἐν σώματι ὄντες, τὸν ἀσώματον ἐχθρὸν ἐτροπώσασθε; Χριστὸν ὁμολογήσαντες, τῷ Σταυρῷ ὁπλισάμενοι; ὅθεν ἐνεδείχθητε δαιμόνων φυγαδευταί, καὶ βαρβάρων πολέμιοι, ἀπαύστως πρεσβεύοντες, σωθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.	Who is not amazed, O holy martyrs, seeing the good fight that you fought; how being armed with the Cross you confessed Christ, and thus defeated the bodiless enemy, though you yourselves were in body still. Therefore you have worthily been made the banishers of demons, and the opponents of foreign enemies, unceasingly interceding that our souls be saved. [SD]

Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ἤχῳ σάλπιγγος, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ καὶ κιθάρᾳ.	Praise Him with the sound of trumpet; praise Him with the harp and lyre. [SAAS]
Ἀγγέλων συμμέτοχοι, γεγόνατε ἅγιοι Μάρτυρες, ἐν σταδίῳ τὸν Χριστὸν ἀνδρείως κηρύξαντες· πάντα γὰρ τὰ ἐν κόσμῳ κατελίπατε τερπνά, ὡς ἀνύπαρκτα, τὴν πίστιν δὲ ὡς ἄγκυραν ἀσφαλῆ ἐκρατήσατε· ὅθεν καὶ τὴν πλάνην, ἀπελάσαντες, πηγάζετε τοῖς πιστοῖς ἰαμάτων χαρίσματα, ἀπαύστως πρεσβεύοντες, σωθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.	O holy Martyrs, after bravely proclaiming Christ in the arena, you have become companions of the Angels. First you left behind all the pleasures of the world, as if they did not exist; then you held on to the faith, as if it were unmoving anchor. Therefore, since you dismissed error and deception, you gush forth gifts of healing to the faithful, as you unceasingly intercede, for the salvation of our souls. [SD]

Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν τυμπάνῳ καὶ χορῷ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν χορδαῖς καὶ ὀργάνῳ.	Praise Him with timbrel and dance; praise Him with strings and flute. [SAAS]
Πῶς ὑμῶν μὴ θαυμάσωμεν, τοὺς ἀγῶνας, ἅγιοι Μάρτυρες; ὅτι σῶμα θνητὸν περικείμενοι, τοὺς ἀσωμάτους ἐχθροὺς ἐτροπώσασθε; οὐκ ἐφόβησαν ὑμᾶς τῶν τυράννων αἱ ἀπειλαί, οὐ κατέπτηξαν ὑμᾶς τῶν βασάνων αἱ προσβολαί, ὄντως ἀξίως παρὰ Χριστοῦ ἐδοξάσθητε, καὶ ταῖς ψυχαὶς ἡμῶν αἰτεῖσθε τὸ μέγα ἔλεος.	O holy Martyrs, how shall we not cease to marvel at your contests! You had a mortal body, and yet you routed the bodiless foes. The tyrants’ threats did not frighten you, nor did the prospects of torture cause you to shrink in fear. Worthily indeed were you glorified by Christ. And now you pray that He grant our souls the great mercy. [SD]

Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις εὐήχοις, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις ἀλαλαγμοῦ. Πᾶσα πνοὴ αἰνεσάτω τὸν Κύριον.	Praise Him with resounding cymbals; praise Him with triumphant cymbals; let everything that breathes praise the Lord. [SAAS]
Τίμιος ὁ θάνατος, τῶν Ἁγίων σου Κύριε· ξίφεσι γὰρ καὶ πυρί, καὶ ψύχει συντετριμμένοι, ἐξέχεαν τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν, ἐλπίδα ἔχοντες εἰς σέ, ἀπολαβεῖν τοῦ καμάτου τὸν μισθόν, ὑπέμειναν καὶ ἔλαβον, παρὰ σοῦ Σωτὴρ τὸ μέγα ἔλεος.	Precious and honorable is the death of Your saints, O Lord. They were crushed by sword and fire and frost, and they spilled their blood, with their hope in You, to receive the reward for their labor. They waited and endured, and they received the great mercy from You the Savior. [SD]
Δόξα. Νεκρώσιμον.	Glory. For the Dead.

Εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν σου Κύριε, ὅπου πάντες οἱ ἅγιοί σου ἀναπαύονται, ἀνάπαυσον καὶ τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν δούλων σου, ὅτι μόνος ὑπάρχεις ἀθάνατος.	We pray You let the souls of Your servants repose in Your place of rest, where all Your saints repose, O Lord, for You alone are immortal. [SD]
Καὶ νῦν. Θεοτοκίον.	Both now. Theotokion.

Ἔχοντές σε Θεοτόκε, ἐλπίδα καὶ προστασίαν, ἐχθρῶν ἐπιβουλὰς οὐ πτοούμεθα, ὅτι σῴζεις τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.	Having you, O Theotokos, as our hope and protection, we are not dismayed by the schemes of the foe, for truly you save our souls. [SD]

Accept our supplication, you who sit at the right of the Father, and have mercy on us. For you are the only Holy One, you are the only Lord, Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father. Amen. Every day I shall bless you, and I shall praise your name forever, and unto the ages of ages. Lord, you have become for us a refuge from generation to generation. I have said: Lord, have mercy on me, heal my soul, for I have sinned against you. Lord, to you I have fled; teach me to do your will, for you are my God. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we shall see light. Extend your mercy to those who know you. Grant, O Lord, that in this day we may be kept without sin. Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our Fathers, and praised and glorified is your name unto the ages. Amen. Let your mercy, Lord, come upon us, just as we have hoped in you. Blessed are you, O Lord, teach me your commandments. Blessed are you, O Master, make me understand your commandments. Blessed are you, O Holy One, enlighten me with your commandments.

Ὄντως φοβερώτατον, τὸ τοῦ θανάτου μυστήριον! Πῶς ψυχὴ ἐκ τοῦ σώματος, βιαίως χωρίζεται, ἐκ τῆς ἁρμονίας, καὶ τῆς συμφυΐας ὁ φυσικώτατος δεσμός, θείῳ βουλήματι ἀποτέμνεται; Διό σε ἱκετεύομεν, τοὺς μεταστάντας ἀνάπαυσον, ἐν σκηναῖς τῶν δικαίων σου, ζωοδότα φιλάνθρωπε.	Frightening indeed, and quite so, is the mystery known as death, how a soul then is forcibly * separated from its frame, parting from its body; * severed is that union, which is most natural and innate, * by Your divine will. And therefore we entreat * that You who are benevolent grant the departed eternal rest, * where the saints and the righteous dwell, * O our God and the Giver of life. [SD]

Στίχ. Μακάριοι οὓς ἐξελέξω καὶ προσελάβου, Κύριε.	Verse: Blessed are they whom You have chosen and received, O Lord. [SAAS]

Διό σε ἱκετεύομεν, τοὺς μεταστάντας κατάταξον, ἐν σκηναῖς τῶν ἁγίων σου, ἐν μοναῖς ἀκηράτοις σου.	Death is shown to be but slumber for believers, O Savior Christ * and the Lord of the universe, * since You were laid in a tomb, * and since You dismantled * all of death’s dominion * and You abolished all its might * that had prevailed over us for many years. * And therefore we entreat You now that You will place those who pass away * in the dwellings of all Your saints * in Your mansions that perish not. [SD]

Στίχ. Καὶ τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῶν εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν.	Verse: And their memorial abides from generation to generation. [SAAS]

Καὶ νῦν ἐκδυσωποῦμέν σε, τοὺς μεταστάντας ἀνάπαυσον, ἐν χαρᾷ καὶ φαιδρότητι, εὐεργέτα Σωτὴρ ἡμῶν.	You, O Lord, became for us sanctification and righteousness * and redemption for all our souls. * For You have presented us * to the holy Father * justified and ransomed, having accepted for our sake * the price and penalty that was owed by us. * We therefore now implore You to grant rest to those who have passed away * in a place of bright joyousness, * Benefactor and Savior Christ.

Διό σε ἱκετεύομεν, τοὺς μεταστάντας ἀνάπαυσον, ἐν σκηναῖς αἰωνίοις σου, ἐν χοροῖς τῶν Μαρτύρων σου.	Now the human race has been recalled from former corruption to * incorruption with no decay, * for it has been bathed and cleansed * in the blood that poured out * from Your side, O Savior; * and in Your blood You washed away * from us the sin of Adam our ancestor. * And therefore we entreat You to grant rest to those who have passed away * in eternal dwellings of Yours, * with the hosts of Your martyr saints.

Following the sayings of the God-inspired, all-blameless one, * we consider you truly as * the Mother of God, for you * ineffably gave birth to * God who took a body * and then redeemed and ransomed us * who were in bonds and enslaved because of sins. * We pray you, all-pure Lady, to implore you Son to illuminate * all your servants who passed away * with His own uncreated light.
