Ode 6. The deepest abyss.
Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash
Trinity beyond being, possessing equal power, Unity in identity of will, you single and undivided. Watch over us therefore by your power.
Glory. Both now.
**Theotokion.**
As you are good, O incomprehensible Trinity, from non-being you gave existence to all the ages by your will, and then you fashioned mankind. But now too deliver me from every calamity.
You became the house of the unsetting Sun who with infinite strength created and set in order the great lights, immaculate Virgin, Bride of God. But now too deliver me from the gloom of the passions.
Kathisma. The soldiers watching.
The holy Trinity and indivisible nature in three persons, divided indivisibly and remaining indivisible in accordance with the essence of the Godhead, let us born of earth worship and glorify as Maker and Master, God supremely good.
Pilot my wretched soul, pure Virgin, and have compassion on it, as it slides under a multitude of offences into the deep of destruction; and at the fearful hour of death snatch me from the accusing demons and from every punishment.
