HOLY PASCHA: The Resurrection of Our Lord
Troparion — Tone 4
Christ is risen from the dead, / trampling down death by death, / and upon those in the tombs bestowing life!
Troparion — Tone 8
(Hypakoe)
Before the dawn Mary and the women came / and found the stone rolled away from the tomb. / They heard the angelic voice: “Why do you seek among the dead as a Man / the One Who is everlasting Light? / Behold the clothes in the grave; go and proclaim to the world: / ‘The Lord is risen; He has slain death, / as He is the Son of God, saving the race of man.’”
Kontakion — Tone 8
You descended into the tomb, O Immortal, / You destroyed the power of death. / In victory You arose, O Christ God, / proclaiming: “Rejoice!” to the Myrrhbearing Women, / granting peace to Your Apostles, and bestowing Resurrection on the fallen.
Apostles Jason and Sosipater of the Seventy, the Virgin Kerkyra, and those with them
Troparion — Tone 3
O holy Apostles Jason and Sosipater, / pray to the merciful God, / that He may grant to our souls / remission of our transgressions.
Kontakion — Tone 2
O Jason, source of healing, / and Sosipater, glory of the martyrs of Christ: / You were enlightened by the preaching of Paul, / both becoming a great consolation to the world through your miracles. / Thrice-holy and God-bearing Apostles and defenders of those who suffer, / intercede with Christ God that He may save our souls.
Martyrs Dada, Maximus, and Quinctilian, at Dorostolum
Troparion — Tone 4
Your holy martyrs Dada, Maximus, and Quinctilian, O Lord, / through their sufferings have received incorruptible crowns from You, our God. / For having Your strength, they laid low their adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through their intercessions, save our souls!
Saint Cyril, Bishop of Turov
Troparion — Tone 4
In truth you were revealed to your flock as a rule of faith, / an image of humility and a teacher of abstinence; / your humility exalted you; / your poverty enriched you. / Hierarch Father Cyril, / entreat Christ our God / that our souls may be saved.
