PASCHAL TROPARION - TONE 1:

Хрїстосъ воскресе изъ мертвыхъ, Смертїю смерть поправъ, И сѹщымъ во гробѣхъ животъ даровавъ!

(Hristos voskrese, iz mertvih, smertiju smert poprav, i sushchim vo grobjeh, zhivot darovav)!

 

RESURRECTION TROPARION - TONE 2:

When Thou didst descend to death, O Life Immortal, Thou didst slay hell with the splendor of Thy Godhead.  And when from the depths, Thou didst raise the dead, all the powers of heaven cried out:  “O Giver of Life, Christ our God, Glory to Thee!”

 

RIGHTEOUS JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA TROPARION - TONE 2:

The noble Joseph, when he had taken down Thy most pure Body from the Tree, wrapped it in fine linen and anointed it with spices, and placed it in a new tomb.  But Thou didst arise on the third day, O Lord, granting the world great mercy.

 

HOLY MYRRHBEARING WOMEN TROPARION - TONE 2:

The Angel came to the Myrrhbearing Women at the tomb and said:  “Myrrh is fitting for the dead; but Christ has shown Himself a stranger to corruption!  So proclaim: ‘The Lord is risen, granting the world great mercy.’”

 

HOLY MYRRHBEARERS KONTAKION - TONE 2:

Thou didst command the Myrrhbearers to rejoice, O Christ God. By Thy Resurrection, Thou didst cease the lamentation of Eve, the first mother.  Thou didst command them to preach to Thine Apostles: “The Savior is risen from the tomb!”

 

PASCHAL KONTAKION - TONE 8:

Thou didst descend into the tomb, O Immortal; Thou didst destroy the power of death.  In victory didst Thou arise, O Christ God, proclaiming “Rejoice” to the myrrh-bearing women, granting peace to Thy disciples, and bestowing resurrection on the fallen.

 

Instead of “It is truly meet...” :

The Angel cried to the Lady, full of grace: “Rejoice, O pure Virgin! Again, I say: ‘Rejoice, your Son is risen from His three days in the tomb! With Himself He has raised all the dead.’” Rejoice, O ye people! Shine, shine, O new Jerusalem! " e glory of the Lord has shone on you. Exult now, and be glad, O Zion! Be radiant, O pure Theotokos, in the Resurrection of your Son!

 

Instead of “We have seen the True Light”:
