Great and Holy Tuesday - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 8
Behold the Bridegroom comes at midnight, / and blessed is the servant whom He shall find watching, / and again unworthy is the servant whom He shall find heedless. / Beware, therefore, O my soul, do not be weighed down with sleep, / lest you be given up to death and lest you be shut out of the Kingdom. / But rouse yourself crying: Holy, Holy, Holy, are You, O our God! / Through the Theotokos have mercy on us!
Kontakion — Tone 2
You know that this is the last hour, O wretched soul, / and fear the cutting of the fig tree. / Work diligently therefore at the talent given to you / keep watch and pray: / Let us not remain outside the bridal chamber of Christ.
