As the smoke vanishes let them vanish, and as wax melts before fire.

Come from that Scene, O Women,

Bearers of Good Tidings, and say

to Zion: Receive from us the

Tiding of Joy, of the Resurrection

of Christ! Exalt, rejoice and be

glad, O Jerusalem! For thou saw

Christ the King as a Bridegroom

come forth from the Tomb.

So shall the wicked perish at the Presence of God; and let the Righteous rejoice.

The Myrrh5bearing Women, at deep

dawn, drew near to the Tomb of

the Giver of Life, and they found

an Angel sitting upon the stone,

and he cried to them and said:

“Why do you seek the Living

among the dead? Why do you

mourn the Incorruptible amid

corruption? Go, proclaim to His

Disciples.

This is Day that the Lord has made: we will rejoice and be glad in it.

A Pascha of Delight! A Pascha of the

Lord! Pascha, an All Venerable

Pascha has dawned for us! A

Pascha on which let us embrace

one another with Joy! O Pascvha,

Ransom for sorrow! From the

Tomb as from a Bridal Chamber,

Christ today shone forth, and

filled the Women with Joy, saying:

Proclaim to the Apostles!

Rising, having been Raised? Truly

Christ God has Risen, granting

those in Hades Life and

Resurrection.


Thou Arose from Hades as Immortal,

O Saviour, and raised Thy world

with Thee by Thy Resurrection,

Christ our God. With Strength

Thou broke the might of Death,

and revealed the Resurrection to

all, O Merciful: therefore, we also

O Theotokos, through Thee became

manifest to us on earth the

Mystery that was hidden from

Eternity, and which the Angels

themselves did not know: that

God, uniting Natures without

confusion, voluntarily became a

Man and accepted Crucifixion for

our Salvation. By virtue of this,

resurrecting mankind whom He

had first created, He Saved our

souls from Death!

Coming down from the Heights

Above, Gabriel approached the

rock where the Rock of Life had

lain, and clothed in white he cried

aloud to the weeping women:

Cease your cry of lamentation!

Now your have Compassion

forever! Take courage, for the One

you seek weeping has truly Risen!

Therefore, cry out to the Apostles

that the Lord had Risen!

Amin

Of Thine own Will, O Saviour, Thou

endured the Cross, and mortals

laid in a new tomb the One Who

established the ends of earth

through a Word; therefore, the

alien was bound, Death terribly

despoiled and all those in Hades

cried aloud at Thy Life5bering

Rising: Christ, the Giver of Life,

At Thy conceiving without seed, O

Theotokos, Joseph was struck with

wonder as he contemplated what

was beyond nature, and he

brought to mind the Dew on the

fleece, the Bush unburnt by Fire,

Aaron’s Rod that blossomed; and

Thy Betrothed and Guardian bore

witness and cried unto the Priests:

A Virgin bears a Child, and after

Child5birth, remains still a Virgin!

Praise Him with tuneful cymbals! Praise Him with loud cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!

supplicate that He free from

Thou granted the human race

Very early in the morning did the Myrrh5bearing Women run

lamenting into Thy Tomb; but

an Angel came towards them,

saying: The time for lamentation

is passed; weep not; but announce

unto the Apostles the

Resurrection.


The Myrrh5bearing Women mourned as, bearing unguents, they drew

near Thy Tomb, O Saviour. But the

Angel spake unto them, saying:

Why number ye the Living among

the dead? In that He is God He is

Risen from the Grave.

Tomb early, while it was still dark,

and saw that the stone had been

taken away from the Tomb.

Then she ran to Simon Peter, and to

the other Disciple, whom Jesus

Loved, and said to them: “They have taken away the Lord out of the Tomb, and we do not know

where they have laid Him.”

Peter therefore went out, and the

other Disciple, and they went to

Wash me thoroughly from my

For I know my iniquity, and my sin is

To Thee only have I sinned, and have

done evil before Thee: that Thou

mayest be justified in Thy words,

and mayest overcome when Thou

art judged.

For behold I was conceived in

iniquities; and in sins did my

mother conceive me.

For behold Thou hast loved Truth: the uncertain and hidden things of

Thy wisdom Thou hast made

manifest to me.

Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop,

and I shall be cleansed:

Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be

made whiter than snow.

To my hearing Thou shalt give joy and gladness: and the bones that

have been humbled shall rejoice.

Turn away Thy Face from my sins,

and blot out all my iniquities.

Create a clean heart in me, O God:

and renew a right spirit within me.

Cast me not away from Thy Face; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.

Restore unto me the joy of Thy Salvation, and strengthen me with

a perfect spirit.

I will teach the unjust Thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted to

Thee.

ODE 3ODE 3ODE 3ODE 3

Come, let us drink a New Drink. Not

one miraculously brought forth

from a barren Rock, but from the

Fountain of Immortality, sprung

forth from Christ’s Tomb, from

which we are Edified. ODE 4ODE 4ODE 4ODE 4

Let the God5inspired Prophet

Habakkuk keep with us the Divine

Watch, and point out the Light5

bearing Angels, who with a vibrant

voice declared: “Today, Salvation comes to the world, for Christ has Risen as Almighty!”


Let us arise in the early dawn, and

instead of Myrrh, offer a Hymn to

the Master; and we shall see Christ,

the Sun of Righteousness dawning

Life to all. ODE 6ODE 6ODE 6ODE 6

Thou descended into the deepest parts of the earth and Thou

shattered everlasting bars that

held fast those fettered; and on the

third day, like Jonah from the

whale, Thou arose from the Tomb. ODE 7ODE 7ODE 7ODE 7

The Only Blessed and Ever Glorious God of our Fathers, Who Redeemed

the Children from the furnace,

became Man, suffered as a mortal;

and through Suffering, He clothes

the mortal with the Grace of

Incorruption. ODE 8ODE 8ODE 8ODE 8

>We praise, we Bless and we worship

the Lord.

This is the Chosen and Holy Day, the

first of the Sabbaths, the Queen

and Sovereign, the Feast of Feasts,

and the Festival of Festivals, in

which we Bless Christ to all Ages.

Let us heed St John as he teaches us Divine Mysteries that occurred in

Samaria: how our Lord conversed

with a Woman: after asking her for

water, He Who collected the waters

in their gatherings, and Who

shares the Throne with the Father

and the Spirit. For our Illustrious

Saviour came seeking His Image

for the Kingdom on High, for

Eternity.

And my tongue shall extol Thy

Justice.

O Lord, Thou wilt open my lips: and

my mouth shall declare Thy praise.

For if Thou hadst desired sacrifice, I

would indeed have given it: with

burnt offerings Thou wilt not be

delighted.

A sacrifice to God is an afflicted

spirit: a contrite and humbled

heart, O God Thou wilt not

despise.

Deal favourably, O Lord, in Thy good

will with Sion; that the walls of

Jerusalem may be built up.

Then shalt Thou accept the sacrifice of Righteousness, oblations and

whole burnt offerings:

Then shall they lay calves upon Thy Altar

Have mercy on me, O God!
