Whereas You, O Lord, were labeled dead, yet in fact You put death to death. And You, the very emptier of graves, were yourself interred. Soldiers overhead were guarding the sepulcher, even as You below resurrected the dead of all ages. Lord almighty and incomprehensible, glory to You. [SD] |

Τὸν Σταυρόν σου, Χριστέ, προσκυνοῦμεν καὶ τὴν ἁγίαν σου ἀνάστασιν ὑμνοῦμεν καὶ δοξάζομεν· σὺ γὰρ εἶ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ἐκτός σου ἄλλον οὐκ οἴδαμεν, τὸ ὄνομά σου ὀνομάζομεν. Δεῦτε πάντες οἱ πιστοί, προσκυνήσωμεν τὴν τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἁγίαν ἀνάστασιν· ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἦλθε διὰ τοῦ Σταυροῦ χαρὰ ἐν ὅλῳ τῷ κόσμῳ.

Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ, let us worship the holy Lord Jesus, the only sinless one. Your Cross, O Christ, we venerate, and Your holy Resurrection we praise and glorify. For You are our God; apart from You we know no other; we call upon Your name. Come, all faithful, let us venerate the holy Resurrection of Christ; for behold, through the Cross, joy has come to the whole world. Ever blessing the Lord, let us praise His Resurrection; for having endured the Cross for us, He destroyed death by death. [GOA] |

Ἐλέησόν με, ὁ Θεός, κατὰ τὸ μέγα ἔλεός σου, καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν οἰκτιρμῶν σου ἐξάλειψον τὸ ἀνόμημά μου. Ἐπὶ πλεῖον πλῦνόν με ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας μου, καὶ απὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας μου καθάρισόν με. Ὅτι τὴν ἀνομίαν μου ἐγὼ γινώσκω, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία μου ἐνώπιόν μού ἐστι διὰ παντός. Σοὶ μόνῳ ἥμαρτον, καὶ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιόν σου ἐποίησα· ὅπως ἂν δικαιωθῇς ἐν τοῖς λόγοις σου, καὶ νικήσῃς ἐν τῷ κρίνεσθαί σε. Ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἐν ἀνομίαις συνελήφθην, καὶ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις ἐκίσσησέ με ἡ μήτηρ μου. Ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἀλήθειαν ἠγάπησας· τὰ ἄδηλα καὶ τὰ κρύφια τῆς σοφίας σου ἐδήλωσάς μοι. Ῥαντιεῖς με ὑσσώπῳ καὶ καθαρισθήσομαι· πλυνεῖς με καὶ ὑπὲρ χιόνα λευκανθήσομαι. Ἀκουτιεῖς μοι ἀγαλλίασιν καὶ εὐφροσύνην· ἀγαλλιάσονται ὀστέα τεταπεινωμένα. Ἀπόστρεψον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν μου καὶ πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας μου ἐξάλειψον. Καρδίαν καθαρὰν κτίσον ἐν ἐμοί, ὁ Θεός, καὶ πνεῦμα εὐθὲς ἐγκαίνισον ἐν τοῖς ἐγκάτοις μου. Μὴ ἀποῤῥίψῃς με ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου σου καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμά σου τὸ ἅγιον μὴ ἀντανέλῃς ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ. Ἀπόδος μοι τὴν ἀγαλλίασιν τοῦ σωτηρίου σου καὶ πνεύματι ἡγεμονικῷ στήριξόν με. Διδάξω ἀνόμους τὰς ὁδούς σου καὶ ἀσεβεῖς ἐπὶ σὲ ἐπιστρέψουσι. Ῥῦσαί με ἐξ αἱμάτων, ὁ Θεός, ὁ Θεὸς τῆς σωτηρίας μου· ἀγαλλιάσεται ἡ γλῶσσά μου τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου. Κύριε, τὰ χείλη μου ἀνοίξεις καὶ τὸ στόμα μου ἀναγγελεῖ τὴν αἴνεσίν σου. Ὅτι εἰ ἠθέλησας θυσίαν, ἔδωκα ἄν· ὁλοκαυτώματα οὐκ εὐδοκήσεις. Θυσία τῷ Θεῷ πνεῦμα συντετριμμένον· καρδίαν συντετριμμένην καὶ τεταπεινωμένην ὁ Θεὸς οὐκ ἐξουδενώσει. Ἀγάθυνον, Κύριε, ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ σου τὴν Σιὼν καὶ οἰκοδομηθήτω τὰ τείχη Ἰερουσαλήμ. Τότε εὐδοκήσεις θυσίαν δικαιοσύνης, ἀναφορὰν καὶ ὁλοκαυτώματα. Τότε ἀνοίσουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριόν σου μόσχους. |
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.

Παράγων ὁ Σωτὴρ ἡμῶν, εὗρε Τυφλὸν ἀόμματον, πτύσας χαμαὶ καὶ ποιήσας, πηλὸν ἐπέχρισε τοῦτον, πρὸς Σιλωὰμ ἀπέστειλε, τοῦ ἀπελθεῖν καὶ νίψασθαι, ὁ δὲ νιψάμενος ἦλθε, βλέπων τὸ φῶς σου Χριστέ μου. |
Our Savior once was passing by, * and found a man who was born blind. * He spat on the ground and made clay * of the saliva, anointing * his eyes with it and sent him to * the pool of Siloam to wash. * So he went and washed and came back * seeing Your light, O Christ my God. [SD] |

Κύριε, ἐσφραγισμένου τοῦ τάφου ὑπὸ τῶν παρανόμων, προῆλθες ἐκ τοῦ μνήματος, καθὼς ἐτέχθης ἐκ τῆς Θεοτόκου· οὐκ ἔγνωσαν πῶς ἐσαρκώθης, οἱ ἀσώματοί σου Ἄγγελοι· οὐκ ᾔσθοντο πότε ἀνέστης, οἱ φυλάσσοντές σε στρατιῶται· ἀμφότερα γὰρ ἐσφράγισται τοῖς ἐρευνῶσι· πεφανέρωται δὲ τὰ θαύματα, τοῖς προσκυνοῦσιν ἐν πίστει τὸ μυστήριον· ὃ ἀνυμνοῦσιν, ἀπόδος ἡμῖν ἀγαλλίασιν, καὶ τὸ μέγα ἔλεος. |
The sepulcher was firmly sealed by villains, O Lord. But You came forth from the tomb, much like You were born from the Theotokos. Your bodiless Angels did not know how You became incarnate, and the soldiers who were guarding You did not notice when You rose. Both of these miracles were confirmed to the prophets who inquired and revealed to them, who by faith revered the mystery. Which we now extol; and we pray You restore to us the joy and the great mercy. [GOASD] |

When You had crushed the age-old bars and broken the chains to pieces, You rose from the tomb, O Lord. And You left the grave clothes behind, as evidence that You were truly buried for three days. And You proceeded to Galilee, You who had been held in custody in a rock-hewn tomb. Great is Your mercy, incomprehensible Savior! Have mercy on us. [GOASD] |

Κύριε, αἱ γυναῖκες ἔδραμον ἐπὶ τὸ μνῆμα, τοῦ ἰδεῖν σε τὸν Χριστόν, τὸν διʼ ἠμᾶς παθόντα· καὶ προσελθοῦσαι, εὗρον Ἄγγελον ἐπὶ τὸν λίθον καθήμενον, τῷ φόβῳ κυλισθέντα, καὶ πρὸς αὐτὰς ἐβόησε λέγων· Ἀνέστη ὁ Κύριος· εἴπατε τοῖς μαθηταῖς, ὅτι ἀνέστη ἐκ νεκρῶν, ὁ σῴζων τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν. |
The women ran to the tomb, O Lord, to see You, the Christ, who had suffered for us. When they came, they found an Angel sitting on the stone, which he had fearsomely rolled back. And he said to the women, “The Lord has risen! Go tell His disciples, ‘The Savior of our souls has risen from the dead!’” [GOASD] |

Ὡς ἐκ σπέρματος Δαυΐδ, μώλωπας ὑπήνεγκας, ὡς Υἱὸς δὲ τοῦ Θεοῦ, κόσμον ἠλευθέρωσας. Μέγα σου τὸ ἔλεος, ἀκατάληπτε Σωτήρ! Ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς. |
O Lord, just like You exited the sepulcher, although it was sealed, so You entered where Your disciples were, the doors being shut. You showed them the injuries You suffered on Your body, which You accepted and bore with long-suffering, O Savior. As the progeny of David, You endured the wounds; as the Son of God, You freed the world. Great is Your mercy, incomprehensible Savior! Have mercy on us. [GOASD] |

Who can speak of Your mighty works, O Christ, or enumerate Your many miracles? You appeared on earth in two natures, in Your goodness; and You likewise granted twofold cures to the sick. For example, You opened not only the bodily eyes of the man born blind, but also the eyes of his soul. And for this he confessed You to be God, though concealed, who grants to all the great mercy.

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.

Those who were well versed * in the Laws that Moses gave to them, * observing on the Sabbath the glowing light of the man * born blind, and how he shined when Jesus had healed him, * seeing only shadows were willfully blind, * not knowing that the laws were obscured by a shadow. * Therefore they did not discern the Lord, * who by a word made both the Sabbath and the light, * and, through a new working in clay with His saliva * followed by washing, gave the Blindman eyes and vision. * Now let us join with him, that we, too, may see God himself, * and thus with superior vision, * we may avoid the blindness of the Pharisses.

Morning has risen * for the Blindman, who endured much pain * and passed his days in blindness, like darkness of the night; * when he went and washed in the pool of Siloam, * at the divine command, his eyes received sight. * Now he is seen to be a newly shining day star, * and he reproves the lawyers and the Scribes, * for being still in the dark night-producing fog; * and he illumines the moonless night of their blindness, * with his enlightened words like luminous effusions. * Of old, the shadow of the letter made us blind to it; * now the Logos gives us His brilliant * divine illuminations, and with new eyes we see.

That former blind man, * without vision from the time of birth, * was blind in every way, both in his body and his soul, * then enlightened by the light of divine knowledge, * he reached the height of most luminous ascent; * for he was completely illumined by the Logos * and recognized Him to be indeed * Maker of all, Maker of light, Giver of light, * who rose in splendor from the tomb on the third day * and brightened all the earth by His resurrection; * from which the light of our refashioning has shone on all * who were captives and held in darkness, * for He is compassionate and very merciful. [SD] |

Ὁ διὰ σπλάγχνα ἐλέους σαρκωθείς, Χριστὲ ὁ Θεός, τὸν τοῦ φωτὸς ἐστερημένον ἀπὸ μήτρας, σπλάγχνοις ἀφάτοις οἰκτιρμῶν, λαμπηδόνος θείας κατηξίωσας, τούτου τὰς κόρας, τῷ χοῒ τοῖς πλαστουργοῖς δακτύλοις σου προσψαύσας. Αὐτὸς καὶ νῦν φωτοπάροχε, καὶ ἡμῶν καταύγασον, τὰ τῆς ψυχῆς αἰσθητήρια, ὡς μόνος ἀφθονοπάροχος. |
In Your tender mercy, You became incarnate, O Christ our God. And thus, in Your ineffable compassion, You granted divine luster to the man who from his mother’s womb was deprived of sight, when using Your creative fingers You anointed his eyes with clay. We entreat You, O Giver of light, to also illumine the senses of our souls, for You are the ultimate source of abundant blessings. [GOASD] |
