Ode 1. Irmos.
Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash
Your triumphant right hand, in a manner fitting God, has been glorified in strength, O Immortal; for in its infinite strength it broke in pieces the enemy, and made a strange new way for the Israelites in the deep.
Enlightened by the divine beams of the radiance with triple sun, glorious, godlike Apostles, you were truly gods; therefore, as is fitting, with faith we honour you.
When, through compassion, the Word appeared on earth in the solidity of flesh, having become by faith his best ministers and fulfillers of his commands, O Apostles, you are ever honoured.
Revered Apostles, with the shining rays of light of the all-holy Spirit enlighten me, wholly covered by the darkness of sins, and guide me clearly to the way of repentance.
Harmony of the Apostles, all-blameless Lady who gave birth to God, as you are Mother of him who spoke in them in a manner fitting God, with them intercede that I may be delivered from the fire of Gehenna.
