AT MATINS
Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash
**After the 1st Reading from the Psalter Kathisma.
Tone 4.**
The One who knows the thoughts of every heart, stood in the midst of the Temple and cried aloud, speaking truth to the liars: Why do you seek to arrest me, the Giver of Life? as he cried out at the mid-point of the Feast: Lawless ones, do not pass judgement by appearances! (**Twice)**
After the 2nd Reading from the Psalter, Kathisma.
Tone 5. The Word without beginning.
The Master of all things, standing in the Temple at the mid-point of the feast of sacred Pentecost, addresses the Hebrews and as King and God clearly refutes their tyrannous daring: but through compassion he gives us all his great mercy.
Having seen the Resurrection of Christ **and Psalm 50, the Canons; that in Tone 4 to 8 and that in Tone 8 to 6.**
