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.

O my Savior, You descended into the netherworld, and You shattered its gates, for You are almighty God.

When the women heard the Angel’s words, they put away their grief; and they rejoiced with trembling as they saw the resurrection. And behold, Christ came to them and said, “Rejoice! Take courage! I have overcome the world and have rescued the prisoners. Go quickly now to the Disciples and tell them that I am going before them to proclaim it in the region of Galilee.” Therefore we all cry to You: Save us, O Lord. [GOASD]

Jesse’s root produced a branch, O Christ, * and You its flower blossomed forth, * from the Virgin who by Habakkuk prophetically once was called * overshadowed, dense mountain. * From her who knew not man You came incarnate, * the immaterial God. * Glory to Your strength, O Lord. [GOASD]

Such as it received * Jonah as an embryo, the sea beast disgorged him from its bowels intact. * With the Virgin, though, when the Logos had dwelt in her taking on flesh, * He came forth from her preserving her yet incorrupt. * For from her no fluxion suffered He, * and He kept her unaltered in childbirth.

The Servants nurtured piously together, * with contempt regarding the impious king’s decree, * intrepidly faced the threat of holocaust, * and while standing in the midst of flames they chanted thus, * saying: O God of the fathers, You are blessed. [GOASD]

Babylon’s bedewing furnace bore the image * of an extraordinary wonder. * For it did not burn the youths it accepted, * nor did the fire of Divinity consume the Virgin’s womb wherein it went. * So let us melodiously chant in praise: * Let all creation bless and extol the Lord, * and let it exalt Him supremely to the ages.

At that time, Jesus revealed himself to the disciples after he was raised from the dead. And he said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.” A second time he said to him, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” And he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you girded yourself and walked where you would; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish to go.” (This he said to show by what death he was to glorify God.) And after this he said to him, “Follow me.” Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, who had lain close to his breast at the supper and had said, “Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?” When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?” Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow me!” The saying spread abroad among the brethren that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?” This is the disciple who is bearing witness to these things, and who has written these things; and we know that his testimony is true. But there are also many other things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen. [RSV]

Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me with Your guiding Spirit.
Unirudishie furaha ya wokovu wako; unitegemeze kwa roho ya wepesi.
Διδάξω ἀνόμους τὰς ὁδούς σου, καὶ ἀσεβεῖς ἐπὶ σὲ ἐπιστρέψουσι.
I will teach transgressors Your ways, and the ungodly shall turn back to You.
Nitawafundisha wakosaji njia zako, na wenye dhambi watarejea kwako.
Ῥῦσαί με ἐξ αἱμάτων, ὁ Θεὸς ὁ Θεὸς τῆς σωτηρίας μου· ἀγαλλιάσεται ἡ γλῶσσά μου τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου.
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue shall greatly rejoice in Your righteousness.
Ee MUNGU, Mungu wa wokovu wangu, uniponye na damu za watu, na ulimi wangu utaiiimba haki yako.
Κύριε, τὰ χείλη μου ἀνοίξεις, καὶ τὸ στόμα μου ἀναγγελεῖ τὴν αἴνεσίν σου.
O Lord, You shall open my lips, and my mouth will declare Your praise.
Ee Bwana, uifumbue midomo yangu, na kinywa changu kitazinena sifa zako.
Ὅτι εἰ ἠθέλησας θυσίαν, ἔδωκα ἄν· ὁλοκαυτώματα οὐκ εὐδοκήσεις.
For if You desired sacrifice, I would give it; You will not be pleased with whole burnt offerings.
Maana hupendezwi na dhabihu au ningeitoa, Wewe huridhii sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
Θυσία τῷ Θεῷ πνεῦμα συντετριμμένον· καρδίαν συντετριμμένην καὶ τεταπεινωμένην ὁ Θεὸς οὐκ ἐξουδενώσει.
A sacrifice to God is a broken spirit, a broken and humbled heart God will not despise.
Dhabihu za Mungu ni roho iliyovunjika; moyo uliovunjika na kupondeka, Ee Mungu, hutaudharau.
Ἀγάθυνον, Κύριε, ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ σου τὴν Σιών, καὶ οἰκοδομηθήτω τὰ τείχη Ἰερουσαλήμ.
Do good, O Lord, in Your good pleasure to Zion, and let the walls of Jerusalem be built.

Κύριε, τοὺς μοχλοὺς τοὺς αἰωνίους συντρίψας, καὶ δεσμὰ διαῤῥήξας, τοῦ μνήματος ἀνέστης, καταλιπών σου τὰ ἐντάφια, εἰς μαρτύριον τῆς ἀληθοῦς, τριημέρου ταφῆς σου· καὶ προῆγες ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ, ὁ ἐν σπηλαίῳ τηρούμενος. Μέγα σου τὸ ἔλεος, ἀκατάληπτε Σωτήρ! Ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς.
When You had crushed the age-old bars and broken the chains to pieces, You rose from the tomb, O Lord. And You left the grave clothes behind, as evidence that You were truly buried for three days. And You proceeded to Galilee, You who had been held in custody in a rock-hewn tomb. Great is Your mercy, incomprehensible Savior! Have mercy on us. [GOASD]

Κύριε, αἱ γυναῖκες ἔδραμον ἐπὶ τὸ μνῆμα, τοῦ ἰδεῖν σε τὸν Χριστόν, τὸν διʼ ἠμᾶς παθόντα· καὶ προσελθοῦσαι, εὗρον Ἄγγελον ἐπὶ τὸν λίθον καθήμενον, τῷ φόβῳ κυλισθέντα, καὶ πρὸς αὐτὰς ἐβόησε λέγων· Ἀνέστη ὁ Κύριος· εἴπατε τοῖς μαθηταῖς, ὅτι ἀνέστη ἐκ νεκρῶν, ὁ σῴζων τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.
The women ran to the tomb, O Lord, to see You, the Christ, who had suffered for us. When they came, they found an Angel sitting on the stone, which he had fearsomely rolled back. And he said to the women, “The Lord has risen! Go tell His disciples, ‘The Savior of our souls has risen from the dead!’” [GOASD]

O Lord, just like You exited the sepulcher, although it was sealed, so You entered where Your disciples were, the doors being shut. You showed them the injuries You suffered on Your body, which You accepted and bore with long-suffering, O Savior. As the progeny of David, You endured the wounds; as the Son of God, You freed the world. Great is Your mercy, incomprehensible Savior! Have mercy on us. [GOASD]

Φανερῶν σεαυτόν, τοῖς Μαθηταῖς σου Σωτήρ, μετὰ τὴν ἀνάστασιν, Σίμωνι δέδωκας τὴν τῶν προβάτων νομήν, εἰς ἀγάπης ἀντέκτισιν, τὴν τοῦ ποιμένειν φροντίδα αἰτῶν· διὸ καὶ ἔλεγες· Εἰ φιλεῖς με Πέτρε, ποίμαινε τὰ ἀρνία μου, ποίμαινε τὰ πρόβατά μου. Ὁ δὲ εὐθέως ἐνδεικνύμενος τὸ φιλόστοργον, περὶ τοῦ ἄλλου μαθητοῦ ἐπυνθάνετο. Ὧν ταῖς πρεσβείαις Χριστέ, τὴν ποίμνην σου διαφύλαττε, ἐκ λύκων λυμαινομένων αὐτήν.
After the resurrection, O Savior, You revealed yourself to Your disciples; and You gave to Simon the pasturing of the sheep, in return for his love, asking him to take care to pastor them. That is why You said, “If you love me, Peter, tend my lambs, tend my sheep.” Then Peter inquired about the other disciple, indicating his fondness for him. By their intercessions, O Christ, protect Your flock from savage wolves that would ravage it. [GOASD]

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]
