When the hosts of the Angels saw how You were accounted among the dead, they all marveled. You, O Savior, are the One who destroyed the might of death; and when You arose You raised Adam with yourself and from Hades liberated everyone. [SD]

“Why do you mingle the ointments with your tears full of pity, O women disciples?” Thus the Angel who was shining in the tomb cried to the myrrh-bearing women. “See for yourselves the empty tomb and understand, that the Savior has risen from the sepulcher.”
Enyi binti wanafunzi, kwa nini mnachanganya machozi na manukato kwa huzuni? Malaika aliyemetameta kaburini aliwaambia wanawake walioleta manukato; tazameni kaburini na kufahamu kwamba mwokozi amefufuka shimoni.

Very early in the morning, the myrrh-bearing women were hastening to Your tomb lamenting. But the Angel appeared to them and uttered, “The time for lamentation has ended; weep no more. Go announce the Resurrection to the Apostles.”
Alfajiri mapema wanawake walioleta manukato wakienda haraka kaburini pako, Ee Bwana, na kuomboleza. Lakini Malaika aliwajia na kuwaambia. Wakati wa maombolezo umekuisha, msilie; ila wapashe mitume habari ya Ufufuo.

When the myrrh-bearing women had come with their spices to Your sepulcher, O Savior, they heard the voice of an Angel clearly speaking to them, “Why do you account among the dead the One who lives? For as God, He has risen from the sepulcher.”
Wanawake walioleta manukato wakija nayo kaburini pako, Ee Mwokozi, walisikia Malaika akiwaambia kwa sauti ya nguvu; kwa nini mnadhani aliye hai katika wafu? Kwa kuwa ni Mungu amefufuka shimoni.

Remembering our all-holy, immaculate, most blessed, and glorious Lady, the Theotokos and ever-virgin Mary, with all the saints, let us commend ourselves and one another and our whole life to Christ our God.

The Theotokos is undying in intercession.* Immovable is our hope in her for protection. * Neither death nor burial prevailed over her. * As she is Mother of Life, she was removed to life by Him, * the Lord who lived in her ever-virgin womb. [SD]

Οὐκέτι τὸ κράτος τοῦ θανάτου, ἰσχύσει κατέχειν τοὺς βροτούς· Χριστὸς γὰρ κατῆλθε συντρίβων, καὶ λύων τὰς δυνάμεις αὐτοῦ· δεσμεῖται ὁ ᾅδης, Προφῆται συμφώνως ἀγάλλονται· Ἐπέστη, λέγοντες, Σωτὴρ τοῖς ἐν σκότει· ἐξέρχεσθε οἱ πιστοὶ εἰς τὴν ἀνάστασιν.
No longer will the power of death be able to detain human beings. For Christ went down and crushed it and destroyed all its forces. Hades is shackled, and the Prophets in unison rejoice and proclaim, “The Savior has come to those in darkness. Come out now, believers, to the resurrection!” [GOASD]
Utawala wa kifo hautaweza kuwashika watu tena kabisa; kwa kuwa Kristo alishuka kifoni na kuvunja na kuangamiza nguvu zake; Kuzimu kunafungwa na Manabii wanashangilia na kusema: Mwokozi amefika kwa walio gizani; tokeni nje, ninyi waaminifu, kwa kufufuka. [[SWA]]

The netherworld below was trembling today, Hades and death, before One of the Trinity. Earth shook, and when they saw You, the doorkeepers of Hades quaked. Now all creation, along with the Prophets, rejoices and sings You an ode of triumph, O God our redeemer, who now destroyed the force of death. And let us shout aloud to Adam and his descendants, “A tree brought him in. Come out now, believers, to the resurrection!” [GOASD]

O Christ, I shall tell of Your virtues * and of their beauty, divine and ineffable: * As coeternal and hypostatic radiance * you shone from glory eternal; and coming forth * incarnate from the Virgin’s womb, * You have risen as a Sun * on those in darkness and in the shadow of death. [GOASD]

Counterposed against audacious ire * and the furnace’s fire, the love for God * made the fire cool as dew, * while the ire it derided, * counteracting in the midst * of flames the musical organs with the three-toned, rational, * God-inspired lyre, * the three holy Servants chanting: Lord our God, * You are glorified, O God * of our fathers, You are blessed.

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, Μαρία εἱστήκει πρὸς τῷ μνημείῳ κλαίουσα ἔξω. ὡς οὖν ἔκλαιε, παρέκυψεν εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον καὶ θεωρεῖ δύο ἀγγέλους ἐν λευκοῖς καθεζομένους, ἕνα πρὸς τῇ κεφαλῇ καὶ ἕνα πρὸς τοῖς ποσίν, ὅπου ἔκειτο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ. καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῇ ἐκεῖνοι· γύναι, τί κλαίεις; λέγει αὐτοῖς· ὅτι ἦραν τὸν Κύριόν μου, καὶ οὐκ οἶδα ποῦ ἔθηκαν αὐτόν. καὶ ταῦτα εἰποῦσα ἐστράφη εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, καὶ θεωρεῖ τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἑστῶτα, καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστι. λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· γύναι, τί κλαίεις; τίνα ζητεῖς; ἐκείνη δοκοῦσα ὅτι ὁ κηπουρός ἐστι, λέγει αὐτῷ· κύριε, εἰ σὺ ἐβάστασας αὐτόν, εἰπέ μοι ποῦ ἔθηκας αὐτόν, κἀγὼ αὐτὸν ἀρῶ. λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Μαρία. στραφεῖσα ἐκείνη λέγει αὐτῷ· ῥαββουνί, ὃ λέγεται, διδάσκαλε. λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· μή μου ἅπτου· οὔπω γὰρ ἀναβέβηκα πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου· πορεύου δὲ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφούς μου καὶ εἰπὲ αὐτοῖς· ἀναβαίνω πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ πατέρα ὑμῶν, καὶ Θεόν μου καὶ Θεὸν ὑμῶν. ἔρχεται Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ ἀπαγγέλλουσα τοῖς μαθηταῖς ὅτι ἑώρακε τὸν Κύριον, καὶ ταῦτα εἶπεν αὐτῇ.
At that time, Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb, and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus has lain, one at the head and one at the feet. They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabboni,” which means Teacher. Jesus said to her, “Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” Mary Magdalene went and said to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and she told them that he had said these things to her.

Τῇ ἐνδόξῳ Κοιμήσει σου, οὐρανοὶ ἐπαγάλλονται, καὶ Ἀγγέλων γέγηθε τὰ στρατεύματα· πᾶσα ἡ γῆ δὲ εὐφραίνεται, ᾠδήν σοι ἐξόδιον, προσφωνοῦσα τῇ Μητρί, τοῦ τῶν ὅλων δεσπόζοντος, ἀπειρόγαμε, Παναγία Παρθένε, ἡ τὸ γένος, τῶν ἀνθρώπων ῥυσαμένη, προγονικῆς ἀποφάσεως.
Your Dormition is glorious. * All in heaven are jubilant, * and the hosts of Angels are joining us on earth, * as we rejoice celebrating it * and sing with exultant joy * sacred funerary hymns * to you, Mother of Christ our God, who is Lord of all. * O all-holy and ever-virgin Lady, from hereditary judgment * you have delivered humanity. [SD]

Ἐκ περάτων συνέδραμον, Ἀποστόλων οἱ πρόκριτοι, θεαρχίῳ νεύματι τοῦ κηδεῦσαί σε· καὶ ἀπὸ γῆς αἰρομένην σε, πρὸς ὕψος θεώμενοι, τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ Γαβριήλ, ἐν χαρᾷ ἀνεβόων σοι· Χαῖρε ὄχημα, τῆς Θεότητος ὅλης· χαῖρε μόνη, τὰ ἐπίγεια τοῖς ἄνω, τῷ τοκετῷ σου συνάψασα.
From the ends of the earth arrived * the all-holy and prominent * Apostles to bury you, by divine command. * And when they saw you were taken up * from earth to the heights above, * they rejoiced and sang the word * that the Archangel Gabriel said to you, “Rejoice! * You are God’s holy chariot. Rejoice! The only woman who in childbirth * united earth with the things on high!” [SD]
Στίχ. Ὤμοσε Κύριος τῷ Δαυῒδ ἀλήθειαν καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσει αὐτήν· Ἐκ καρποῦ τῆς κοιλίας σου θήσομαι ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου σου.

Τὴν ζωὴν ἡ κυήσασα, πρὸς ζωὴν μεταβέβηκας, τῇ σεπτῇ Κοιμήσει σου τὴν ἀθάνατον, δορυφορούντων Ἀγγέλων σοι, Ἀρχῶν καὶ Δυνάμεων, Ἀποστόλων Προφητῶν, καὶ ἁπάσης τῆς κτίσεως, δεχομένου τε, ἀκηράτοις παλάμαις τοῦ Υἱοῦ σου, τὴν ἀμώμητον ψυχήν σου, Παρθενομῆτορ Θεόνυμφε.
You the Mother of Life himself * have passed on to immortal life * by your most exalted Dormition on this day, * when all the Angels escorted you, * Powers, Principalities, * Prophets and Apostles too, * the entire created world; * while your Son and God * with His own undefiled hands accepted your all-blameless soul, O Lady, * His Virgin Mother, the Bride of God.

Τὰ τῆς Μαρίας δάκρυα οὐ μάτην χεῖνται θερμῶς· ἰδοὺ γὰρ κατηξίωται, καὶ διδασκόντων Ἀγγέλων, καὶ τῆς ὄψεως τῆς σῆς, ὦ Ἰησοῦ· ἀλλʼ ἔτι πρόσγεια φρονεῖ, οἷα γυνὴ ἀσθενής· διὸ καὶ ἀποπέμπεται, μὴ προσψαῦσαί σοι Χριστέ. Ἀλλʼ ὅμως κήρυξ πέμπεται τοῖς σοῖς Μαθηταῖς, οἷς εὐαγγέλια ἔφησε, τὴν πρὸς τὸν πατρῷον κλῆρον ἄνοδον ἀπαγγέλλουσα. Μεθʼ ἧς ἀξίωσον καὶ ἡμᾶς, τῆς ἐμφανείας σου, Δέσποτα Κύριε.
When Mary ardently shed her tears, it was not in vain. Behold, she was counted worthy of having angels teach her, and of laying eyes on You, O Jesus. But, as a weak woman, her thinking was still earthbound, and therefore she was prevented from laying hands on You, O Christ. Nevertheless, she was sent as a herald to Your disciples; and she told them the good news, and announced that You were ascending to Your Father. O Master, we pray that as with her You also make us worthy of Your appearance, O Lord. [GOASD]

Ὑπερευλογημένη ὑπάρχεις, Θεοτόκε Παρθένε· διὰ γὰρ τοῦ ἐκ σοῦ σαρκωθέντος, ὁ ᾅδης ἠχμαλώτισται, ὁ Ἀδὰμ ἀνακέκληται, ἡ κατάρα νενέκρωται, ἡ Εὔα ἠλευθέρωται, ὁ θάνατος τεθανάτωται, καὶ ἡμεις ἐζωοποιήθημεν· διὸ ἀνυμνοῦντες βοῶμεν· Εὐλογητὸς Χριστὸς ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ οὕτως εὐδοκήσας δόξα σοι.
You are supremely blessed, O Virgin Theotokos. For through Him who from you became incarnate, Hades has been captured, and Adam has been called back; the curse has been killed, and Eve has been freed; death has been put to death, and we have been brought back to life. Therefore we extol Him and cry out, “O Christ our God, You are blessed, for so was Your good pleasure. Glory to You!” [GOASD]
