Κύριε, εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου, ἐνώτισαι τὴν δέησίν μου ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου, εἰσάκουσόν μου ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου· καὶ μὴ εἰσέλθῃς εἰς κρίσιν μετὰ τοῦ δούλου σου, ὅτι οὐ δικαιωθήσεται ἐνώπιόν σου πᾶς ζῶν. Ὅτι κατεδίωξεν ὁ ἐχθρὸς τὴν ψυχήν μου, ἐταπείνωσεν εἰς γῆν τὴν ζωήν μου, ἐκάθισέ με ἐν σκοτεινοῖς ὡς νεκροὺς αἰῶνος· καὶ ἠκηδίασεν ἐπ᾽ ἐμὲ τὸ πνεῦμά μου, ἐν ἐμοὶ ἐταράχθη ἡ καρδία μου. Ἐμνήσθην ἡμερῶν ἀρχαίων, ἐμελέτησα ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις σου, ἐν ποιήμασι τῶν χειρῶν σου ἐμελέτων. Διεπέτασα πρὸς σὲ τὰς χεῖράς μου, ἡ ψυχή μου ὡς γῆ ἄνυδρός σοι. Ταχὺ εἰσάκουσόν μου, Κύριε, ἐξέλιπε τὸ πνεῦμά μου· μὴ ἀποστρέψῃς τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ, καὶ ὁμοιωθήσομαι τοῖς καταβαίνουσιν εἰς λάκκον. Ἀκουστὸν ποίησόν μοι τὸ πρωῒ τὸ ἔλεός σου, ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ ἤλπισα· γνώρισόν μοι, Κύριε, ὁδόν, ἐν ᾗ πορεύσομαι, ὅτι πρὸς σὲ ἦρα τὴν ψυχήν μου· ἐξελοῦ με ἐκ τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου, Κύριε· πρὸς σὲ κατέφυγον. Δίδαξόν με τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸ θέλημά σου, ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ Θεός μου· τὸ πνεῦμά σου τὸ ἀγαθὸν ὁδηγήσει με ἐν γῇ εὐθείᾳ. Ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματός σου, Κύριε, ζήσεις με· ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ἐξάξεις ἐκ θλίψεως τὴν ψυχήν μου· καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐλέει σου ἐξολοθρεύσεις τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου· καὶ ἀπολεῖς πάντας τοὺς θλίβοντας τὴν ψυχήν μου, ὅτι ἐγὼ δοῦλός σού εἰμι.	O Lord, hear my prayer; give ear to my supplication in Your truth; answer me in Your righteousness; do not enter into judgment with Your servant, for no one living shall become righteous in Your sight. For the enemy persecuted my soul; he humbled my life to the ground; he caused me to dwell in dark places as one long dead, and my spirit was in anguish within me; my heart was troubled within me. I remembered the days of old, and I meditated on all Your works; I meditated on the works of Your hands. I spread out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a waterless land. Hear me speedily, O Lord; my spirit faints within me; turn not Your face from me, lest I become like those who go down into the pit. Cause me to hear Your mercy in the morning, for I hope in You; make me know, O Lord, the way wherein I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You. Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, for to You I flee for refuge. Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your good Spirit shall guide me in the land of uprightness. For Your name’s sake, O Lord, give me life; in Your righteousness You shall bring my soul out of affliction. In Your mercy You shall destroy my enemies; You shall utterly destroy all who afflict my soul, for I am Your servant. [SAAS]

Ἐλέησόν με, ὁ Θεός, κατὰ τὸ μέγα ἔλεός σου, καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν οἰκτιρμῶν σου ἐξάλειψον τὸ ἀνόμημά μου. Ἐπὶ πλεῖον πλῦνόν με ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας μου, καὶ απὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας μου καθάρισόν με. Ὅτι τὴν ἀνομίαν μου ἐγὼ γινώσκω, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία μου ἐνώπιόν μού ἐστι διὰ παντός. Σοὶ μόνῳ ἥμαρτον, καὶ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιόν σου ἐποίησα· ὅπως ἂν δικαιωθῇς ἐν τοῖς λόγοις σου, καὶ νικήσῃς ἐν τῷ κρίνεσθαί σε. Ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἐν ἀνομίαις συνελήφθην, καὶ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις ἐκίσσησέ με ἡ μήτηρ μου. Ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἀλήθειαν ἠγάπησας· τὰ ἄδηλα καὶ τὰ κρύφια τῆς σοφίας σου ἐδήλωσάς μοι. Ῥαντιεῖς με ὑσσώπῳ, καὶ καθαρισθήσομαι· πλυνεῖς με καὶ ὑπὲρ χιόνα λευκανθήσομαι. Ἀκουτιεῖς μοι ἀγαλλίασιν καὶ εὐφροσύνην· ἀγαλλιάσονται ὀστέα τεταπεινωμένα. Ἀπόστρεψον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν μου, καὶ πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας μου ἐξάλειψον. Καρδίαν καθαρὰν κτίσον ἐν ἐμοί, ὁ Θεός, καὶ πνεῦμα εὐθὲς ἐγκαίνισον ἐν τοῖς ἐγκάτοις μου. Μὴ ἀποῤῥίψῃς με ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου σου, καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμά σου τὸ ἅγιον μὴ ἀντανέλῃς ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ. Ἀπόδος μοι τὴν ἀγαλλίασιν τοῦ σωτηρίου σου καὶ πνεύματι ἡγεμονικῷ στήριξόν με. Διδάξω ἀνόμους τὰς ὁδούς σου, καὶ ἀσεβεῖς ἐπὶ σὲ ἐπιστρέψουσι. Ῥῦσαί με ἐξ αἱμάτων, ὁ Θεός, ὁ Θεὸς τῆς σωτηρίας μου· ἀγαλλιάσεται ἡ γλῶσσά μου τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου. Κύριε, τὰ χείλη μου ἀνοίξεις, καὶ τὸ στόμα μου ἀναγγελεῖ τὴν αἴνεσίν σου. Ὅτι εἰ ἠθέλησας θυσίαν, ἔδωκα ἄν· ὁλοκαυτώματα οὐκ εὐδοκήσεις. Θυσία τῷ Θεῷ πνεῦμα συντετριμμένον· καρδίαν συντετριμμένην καὶ τεταπεινωμένην ὁ Θεὸς οὐκ ἐξουδενώσει. Ἀγάθυνον, Κύριε, ἐν τῇ εὐδοκίᾳ σου τὴν Σιών, καὶ οἰκοδομηθήτω τὰ τείχη Ἰερουσαλήμ. Τότε εὐδοκήσεις θυσίαν δικαιοσύνης, ἀναφορὰν καὶ ὁλοκαυτώματα. Τότε ἀνοίσουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριόν σου μόσχους.	Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy; and according to the abundance of Your compassion, blot out my transgression. Wash me thoroughly from my lawlessness and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my lawlessness, and my sin is always before me. Against You only have I sinned and done evil in Your sight; that You may be justified in Your words, and overcome when You are judged. For behold, I was conceived in transgressions, and in sins my mother bore me. Behold, You love truth; You showed me the unknown and secret things of Your wisdom. You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be cleansed; You shall wash me, and I will be made whiter than snow. You shall make me hear joy and gladness; my bones that were humbled shall greatly rejoice. Turn Your face from my sins, and blot out all my transgressions. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me with Your guiding Spirit. I will teach transgressors Your ways, and the ungodly shall turn back to You. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue shall greatly rejoice in Your righteousness. O Lord, You shall open my lips, and my mouth will declare Your praise. For if You desired sacrifice, I would give it; You will not be pleased with whole burnt offerings. A sacrifice to God is a broken spirit, a broken and humbled heart God will not despise. Do good, O Lord, in Your good pleasure to Zion, and let the walls of Jerusalem be built; then You will be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, with offerings and whole burnt offerings; then shall they offer young bulls on Your altar.

Ἀδελφοί, ὑπόδειγμα λάβετε τῆς κακοπαθείας καὶ τῆς μακροθυμίας τοὺς προφήτας, οἳ ἐλάλησαν ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου. Ἰδοὺ μακαρίζομεν τοὺς ὑπομένοντας· τὴν ὑπομονὴν Ἰὼβ ἠκούσατε, καὶ τὸ τέλος Κυρίου εἴδετε, ὅτι πολυεύσπλαγχνός ἐστιν ὁ Κύριος καὶ οἰκτίρμων. Πρὸ πάντων δέ, ἀδελφοί μου, μὴ ὀμνύετε μήτε τὸν οὐρανόν, μήτε τὴν γῆν, μήτε ἄλλον τινὰ ὅρκον· ἤτω δὲ ὑμῶν τὸ ναὶ ναί· καὶ τὸ οὔ, οὔ, ἵνα μὴ εἰς ὑπόκρισιν πέσητε. Κακοπαθεῖ τις ἐν ὑμῖν; προσευχέσθω· εὐθυμεῖ τις; ψαλλέτω· ἀσθενεῖ τις ἐν ὑμῖν; προσκαλεσάσθω τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῆς ἐκκλησίας, καὶ προσευξάσθωσαν ἐπʼ αὐτόν, ἀλείψαντες αὐτὸν ἐλαίῳ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ Κυρίου· καὶ ἡ εὐχὴ τῆς πίστεως σώσει τὸν κάμνοντα, καὶ ἐγερεῖ αὐτὸν ὁ Κύριος· κἂν ἁμαρτίας ᾖ πεποιηκώς, ἀφεθήσεται αὐτῷ. Ἐξομολογεῖσθε ἀλλήλοις τὰ παραπτώματα, καὶ εὔχεσθε ὑπὲρ ἀλλήλων, ὅπως ἰαθῆτε· πολὺ ἰσχύει δέησις δικαίου ἐνεργουμένη.	Brethren, take as an example of suffering and patience the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Behold, we call those happy who were steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful. But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation. Is any one among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise. Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects. [RSV]

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, νομικός τις προσῆλθε τῷ Ἰησοῦ πειράζων αὐτὸν καὶ λέγων· Διδάσκαλε, τί ποιήσας ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσω; Ὁ δὲ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτόν· Ἐν τῷ νόμῳ τί γέγραπται; πῶς ἀναγινώσκεις; Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν· Ἀγαπήσεις Κύριον τὸν Θεόν σου, ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου, καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς σου, καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ἰσχύος σου, καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς διανοίας σου, καὶ τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν· Εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ· Ὀρθῶς ἀπεκρίθης· τοῦτο ποίει καὶ ζήσῃ. Ὁ δὲ θέλων δικαιοῦν ἑαυτόν, εἶπε πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν· Καὶ τίς ἐστί μου πλησίον; Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν· Ἄνθρωπός τις κατέβαινεν ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς Ἰεριχὼ καὶ λησταῖς περιέπεσεν· οἳ καὶ ἐκδύσαντες αὐτόν, καὶ πληγὰς ἐπιθέντες, ἀπῆλθον, ἀφέντες ἡμιθανῆ τυγχάνοντα. Κατὰ συγκυρίαν δὲ Ἱερεύς τις κατέβαινεν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκείνῃ· καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν. Ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Λευῒτης, γενόμενος κατὰ τὸν τόπον, ἐλθὼν καὶ ἰδών, ἀντιπαρῆλθε. Σαμαρείτης δέ τις ὁδεύων, ἦλθε κατʼ αὐτόν, καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτόν, ἐσπλαγχνίσθη. Καὶ προσελθὼν κατέδησε τὰ τραύματα αὐτοῦ ἐπιχέων ἔλαιον καὶ οἶνον· ἐπιβιβάσας δὲ αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ ἴδιον κτῆνος, ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς πανδοχεῖον, καὶ ἐπεμελήθη αὐτοῦ. Καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν αὔριον ἐξελθών, ἐκβαλὼν δύο δηνάρια, ἔδωκε τῷ πανδοχεῖ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Ἐπιμελήθητι αὐτοῦ· καὶ ὅ,τι ἂν προσδαπανήσῃς, ἐγὼ ἐν τῷ ἐπανέρχεσθαί με ἀποδώσω σοι. Τίς οὖν τούτων τῶν τριῶν πλησίον δοκεῖ σοι γεγονέναι τοῦ ἐμπεσόντος εἰς τοὺς ληστάς; Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Ὁ ποιήσας τὸ ἔλεος μετʼ αὐτοῦ. Εἶπεν οὖν αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Πορεύου καὶ σὺ ποίει ὁμοίως.	At that time, a lawyer stood up to put Jesus to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read?” And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” And he said to him, “You have answered right; do this, and you will live.” But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.’ Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” He said, “The one who showed mercy on him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.” [RSV]

Ἔλαμψε γὰρ ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν τὸ φῶς τῆς ἐπιγνώσεως τοῦ μονογενοῦς σου Υἱοῦ, ἀφʼ οὗ διʼ ἡμᾶς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὤφθη, καὶ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις συνανεστράφη· καὶ τοῖς δεξαμένοις αὐτὸν ἔδωκεν ἐξουσίαν τέκνα σοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ γενέσθαι, διὰ λουτροῦ παλιγγενεσίας τὴν υἱοθεσίαν ἡμῖν χαρισάμενος, ἀμετόχους ἡμᾶς ἐποίησεν ἐκ τῆς καταδυναστείας τοῦ διαβόλου· ἐπεὶ οὐκ εὐδόκησεν ἐν αἵματι καθαρίζεσθαι, ἀλλʼ ἐν ἐλαίῳ ἁγίῳ ἔδωκε τὸν τύπον τοῦ σταυροῦ αὐτοῦ, εἰς τὸ γενέσθαι ἡμᾶς Χριστοῦ ποίμνιον, βασίλειον ἱεράτευμα, ἔθνος ἅγιον, καθαρίσας ἡμᾶς ἐν ὕδατι, καὶ ἁγιάσας ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ Πνεύματι· αὐτός, Δέσποτα Κύριε, δὸς χάριν εἰς τὴν διακονίαν σου ταύτην, ὡς ἔδωκας Μωσεῖ τῷ θεράποντί σου, καὶ Σαμουὴλ τῷ ἠγαπημένῳ σου, καὶ Ἰωάννῃ τῷ ἐκλεκτῷ σου, καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς καθʼ ἑκάστην γενεὰν εὐαρεστήσασί σοι· οὕτω ποίησον καὶ ἡμᾶς γενέσθαι διακόνους τῆς καινῆς τοῦ Υἱοῦ σου διαθήκης ἐπὶ τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦτο, ἣν περιεποιήσω τῷ τιμίῳ αὐτοῦ αἵματι· ἵνα, ἀποδυσάμενοι τὰς κοσμικὰς ἐπιθυμίας, ἀποθάνωμεν τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ καὶ ζήσωμεν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ, ἐνδυσάμενοι τὸν Κύριον ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν, διὰ τῆς χρίσεως τοῦ ἁγιασμοῦ τοῦ μέλλοντος ἐλαίου ἐπάγεσθαι. Γένοιτο, Κύριε, τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦτο, ἔλαιον ἀγαλλιάσεως, ἔλαιον ἁγιασμοῦ, ἔνδυμα βασιλικόν, θώραξ δυνάμεως, πάσης διαβολικῆς ἐνεργείας ἀποτρόπαιον, σφραγὶς ἀνεπιβούλευτος, ἀγαλλίαμα καρδίας, εὐφροσύνη αἰώνιος· ἵνα καὶ ἐν τούτῳ οἱ χριόμενοι, τῷ τῆς ἀναγεννήσεως ἐλαίῳ, φοβεροὶ ὦσι τοῖς ὑπεναντίοις καὶ λάμψωσιν ἐν ταῖς λαμπρότησι τῶν ἁγίων σου, μὴ ἔχοντες σπίλον, ἢ ῥυτίδα, καὶ εἰσδεχθῶσιν εἰς τὰς αἰωνίους σου ἀναπαύσεις, καὶ δέξωνται τὸ βραβεῖον τῆς ἄνω κλήσεως.	For You are great and marvelous God, who keep Your covenant and mercy with those who love You. You give release from sins through Your holy servant, Jesus Christ. You regenerated us from sin. You give sight to the blind and restore the broken down. You love the righteous and have mercy on sinners. You brought us out of darkness and the shadow of death, saying to those in bonds, “Come out!” and to those in darkness, “Show yourselves!” For the light of the knowledge of Your only-begotten Son has shined in our hearts; since, for our sake, He appeared on earth and dwelt among men; and to all who received Him, He gave the power to become Your children, O God. He granted us adoption through the bath of regeneration, and freed us from the devil’s oppression. He was not pleased that we be cleansed by blood; but rather He granted us to be anointed with oil in the sign of His Cross, so that when He had purified us with water and sanctified us with the Holy Spirit, we might become the flock of Christ, a royal priesthood, a holy nation. O Lord and Master, bestow grace on this ministry of Yours, as You did with Moses Your servant and Samuel Your beloved, John Your chosen one and all those who in every generation have been pleasing to You. Likewise with this oil, allow us to be ministers of Your Son’s new covenant, which You obtained with His precious blood; so that we may take off worldly passions and die to sin, and put on Christ Jesus, our Lord, and live in righteousness, through the holy Unction we are about to perform. O Lord, let this oil be oil of gladness, oil of sanctification, a royal garment, a strong breastplate averting every diabolical action, an inviolable seal, exceeding joy of heart, everlasting gladness; so that those who are anointed with this regenerative oil may be frightening to their foes, and may shine in the splendor of Your saints, without spot or wrinkle; that they may be admitted to Your eternal Jubilee, and may receive the prize of the heavenly call.

Ἀδελφοί, ὀφείλομεν ἡμεῖς οἱ δυνατοὶ τὰ ἀσθενήματα τῶν ἀδυνάτων βαστάζειν, καὶ μὴ ἑαυτοῖς ἀρέσκειν. Ἕκαστος γὰρ ἡμῶν τῷ πλησίον ἀρεσκέτω εἰς τὸ ἀγαθὸν πρὸς οἰκοδομήν· καὶ γὰρ ὁ Χριστὸς οὐχ ἑαυτῷ ἤρεσεν, ἀλλὰ καθὼς γέγραπται· Οἱ ὀνειδισμοὶ τῶν ὀνειδιζόντων σε ἐπέπεσον ἐπʼ ἐμέ. Ὅσα γὰρ προεγράφη, εἰς τὴν ἡμετέραν διδασκαλίαν προεγράφη, ἵνα διὰ τῆς ὑπομονῆς καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως τῶν γραφῶν, τὴν ἐλπίδα ἔχωμεν. Ὁ δὲ Θεὸς τῆς ὑπομονῆς καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως δῴη ὑμῖν τὸ αὐτὸ φρονεῖν ἐν ἀλλήλοις κατὰ Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν· ἵνα ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἐν ἑνὶ στόματι δοξάζητε τὸν Θεὸν καὶ Πατέρα τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ. Διὸ προσλαμβάνεσθε ἀλλήλους, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς προσελάβετο ἡμᾶς εἰς δόξαν Θεοῦ.	Brethren, we who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves; let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to edify him. For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell on me.” For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope. May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Welcome one another, therefore, as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. [RSV]

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ διήρχετο ὁ Ἰησοῦς τὴν Ἰεριχώ. Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ὀνόματι καλούμενος Ζακχαῖος· καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ἀρχιτελώνης, καὶ οὗτος ἦν πλούσιος. Καὶ ἐζήτει ἰδεῖν τὸν Ἰησοῦν τίς ἐστι, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄχλου, ὅτι τῇ ἡλικίᾳ μικρὸς ἦν. Kαὶ προδραμὼν ἔμπροσθεν, ἀνέβη ἐπὶ συκομορέαν, ἵνα ἴδῃ αὐτόν, ὅτι διʼ ἐκείνης ἤμελλε διέρχεσθαι. Καὶ ὡς ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον, ἀναβλέψας ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶδεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν· Ζακχαῖε, σπεύσας κατάβηθι· σήμερον γὰρ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ σου δεῖ με μεῖναι. Καὶ σπεύσας κατέβη, καὶ ὑπεδέξατο αὐτὸν χαίρων. Καὶ ἰδόντες πάντες διεγόγγυζον λέγοντες ὅτι παρὰ ἁμαρτωλῷ ἀνδρὶ εἰσῆλθε καταλῦσαι. Σταθεὶς δὲ Ζακχαῖος εἶπε πρὸς τὸν Κύριον· Ἰδοὺ τὰ ἡμίση τῶν ὑπαρχόντων μου, Κύριε, δίδωμι τοῖς πτωχοῖς, καὶ εἴ τινός τι ἐσυκοφάντησα, ἀποδίδωμι τετραπλοῦν. Εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, ὅτι σήμερον σωτηρία τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ ἐγένετο, καθότι καὶ αὐτὸς υἱὸς Ἀβραάμ ἐστιν. Ἦλθε γὰρ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ζητῆσαι καὶ σῶσαι τὸ ἀπολωλός.	At that time, Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. And there was a man named Zacchaios; he was a chief collector, and rich. And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way. And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaios, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully. And when they saw it they all murmured, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” And Zacchaios stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold.” And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost.” [RSV]

Ὁ Θεὸς ὁ μέγας καὶ ὕψιστος, ὁ ὑπὸ πάσης κτίσεως προσκυνούμενος, ἡ τῆς σοφίας πηγή, ἡ τῆς ἀγαθότητος ὄντως ἀνεξιχνίαστος ἄβυσσος, καὶ τῆς εὐσπλαγχνίας ἀπεριόριστον πέλαγος· αὐτός, φιλάνθρωπε Δέσποτα, ὁ τῶν προαιωνίων καὶ θαυμασίων Θεός, ὃν οὐδεὶς ἀνθρώπων ἐννοῶν, ἰσχύει καταλαβέσθαι, ἐπίβλεψον, εἰσάκουσον ἡμῶν τῶν ἀναξίων δούλων σου· καὶ ὅπου ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου τῷ μεγάλῳ, τὸ ἔλαιον τοῦτο προσάγομεν, κατάπεμψον τῆς σῆς δωρεᾶς τὰ ἰάματα καὶ ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν, καὶ ἴασαι αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ πλήθει τοῦ ἐλέους σου. Ναί, Κύριε εὐδιάλλακτε, ὁ μόνος ἐλεήμων καὶ φιλάνθρωπος, ὁ μετανοῶν ἐπὶ ταῖς κακίαις ἡμῶν, ὁ εἰδὼς ὅτι ἔγκειται ἡ διάνοια τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐπὶ τὰ πονηρὰ ἐκ νεότητος αὐτοῦ, ὁ μὴ θέλων τὸν θάνατον τοῦ ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ὡς τὸ ἐπιστρέψαι καὶ ζῆν αὐτόν, ὁ διὰ τὴν τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν σωτηρίαν ἐνανθρωπήσας, Θεὸς ὤν, καὶ πλασθεὶς διὰ τὸ πλάσμα σου· σὺ εἶ ὁ εἰπών· «Οὐκ ἦλθον καλέσαι δικαίους, ἀλλὰ ἁμαρτωλοὺς εἰς μετάνοιαν»· σὺ εἶ ὁ τὸ πρόβατον ζητήσας τὸ ἀπολωλός· σὺ εἶ ὁ τὴν ἀπολομένην δραχμὴν ἐπιμελῶς ζητήσας καὶ εὑρών· σὺ εἶ ὁ εἰπών, ὅτι· «Τὸν ἐρχόμενον πρός με οὐ μὴ ἐκβάλω ἔξω»· σὺ εἶ ὁ τὴν πόρνην, τοὺς τιμίους σου πόδας δάκρυσι βρέξασαν, μὴ βδελυξάμενος· σὺ εἶ ὁ εἰπών· «Ὁσάκις ἂν πέσῃς, ἔγειραι καὶ σωθήσῃ»· σὺ εἶ ὁ εἰπών, ὅτι· «Χαρὰ γίνεται ἐν οὐρανῷ ἐπὶ ἑνὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ μετανοοῦντι»· αὐτὸς ἔπιδε, εὔσπλαγχνε Δέσποτα, ἐξ ὕψους ἁγίου σου, συνεπισκιάσας ἡμῖν τοῖς ἁμαρτωλοῖς καὶ ἀναξίοις δούλοις σου, ἐν χάριτι τοῦ ἁγίου Πνεύματος ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ταύτῃ, καὶ κατασκήνωσον ἐπὶ τοὺς δούλους σου τούτους, τοὺς ἐπεγνωκότας τὰ ἴδια πλημμελήματα καὶ προσιόντας σοι πίστει· καὶ προσδεξάμενς τῇ ἰδίᾳ σου φιλανθρωπίᾳ, εἴ τι ἐπλημμέλησαν ἐν λόγῳ ἢ ἔργῳ ἢ κατὰ διάνοιαν, συγχωρήσας, ἐξάλειψον καὶ κάθαρον αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ πάσης ἁμαρτίας καί, ἀεὶ συμπαρὼν αὐτοῖς, διαφύλαξον τὸν ὑπόλοιπον χρόνον τῆς ζωῆς αὐτῶν, πορευομένους ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασί σου, πρὸς τὸ μηκέτι ἐπίχαρμα γενέσθαι αὐτοὺς τῷ διαβόλῳ· ἵνα καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτοῖς δοξασθῇ τὸ πανάγιον ὄνομά σου.	Great and most high God, whom all creation worships, source of wisdom, truly unsearchable ocean of goodness and immense gulf of compassion; benevolent Lord, whose wonders are from the beginning, God whom no human can understand or comprehend: Consider us and hear us, Your unworthy servants. And as we, here, present this oil in Your great name, send down Your gift of healing and forgiveness of sins, and heal the people in the abundance of Your mercy. Yes indeed, O forgiving Lord, singularly merciful and benevolent, You relent from punishing our wicked deeds, for You know that the inclination of the human heart is evil from youth. You desire not the death of sinners, but rather that they should turn and live; and for sinners’ salvation, You as God became human, being formed for the ones You had formed. It is You who said, “I came not to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.” It is You who went after the sheep that was lost; You who searched carefully and found the lost coin. It is You who said, “I will not cast out anyone who comes to me”; and who did not abhor the harlot who washed Your precious feet with her tears. It is You who said, “Whenever you fall, get up, and you will be saved.” It is You who said that heaven rejoices whenever a sinner repents. Look at us now from Your holy height, O tender-loving Master, and overshadow us, sinful, unworthy servants of Yours, with the grace of the Holy Spirit. Dwell among Your servants who admit their transgressions and approach You with faith, and accept them; and graciously forgive and blot out any sin they committed in word, deed, or thought, and cleanse them. Be with them always and guard the rest of their lives, as they walk in the way of Your statutes; and may they never again be a laughingstock to the devil, so that Your all-holy name may be glorified in them. [GOASD]
Χάριτι καὶ οἰκτιρμοῖς καὶ φιλανθρωπίᾳ τοῦ μονογενοῦς σου Υἱοῦ, μεθʼ οὗ εὐλογητὸς εἶ, σὺν τῷ παναγίῳ καὶ ἀγαθῷ καὶ ζωοποιῷ σου Πνεύματι, νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.

Ἀδελφοί, ὑμεῖς ἔστε σῶμα Χριστοῦ καὶ μέλη ἐκ μέρους. Καὶ οὓς μὲν ἔθετο ὁ Θεὸς ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ, πρῶτον ἀποστόλους, δεύτερον προφήτας, τρίτον διδασκάλους, ἔπειτα δυνάμεις, εἶτα χαρίσματα ἰαμάτων, ἀντιλήψεις, κυβερνήσεις, γένη γλωσσῶν. Μὴ πάντες ἀπόστολοι; μὴ πάντες προφῆται; μὴ πάντες διδάσκαλοι; μὴ πάντες δυνάμεις; μὴ πάντες χαρίσματα ἔχουσιν ἰαμάτων; μὴ πάντες γλώσσαις λαλοῦσι; μὴ πάντες διερμηνεύουσι; Ζηλοῦτε δὲ τὰ χαρίσματα τὰ κρείττονα. Καὶ ἔτι καθʼ ὑπερβολὴν ὁδὸν ὑμῖν δείκνυμι. Ἐὰν ταῖς γλώσσαις τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαλῶ καὶ τῶν ἀγγέλων, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, γέγονα χαλκὸς ἠχῶν ἢ κύμβαλον ἀλαλάζον. Καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω προφητείαν καὶ εἰδῶ τὰ μυστήρια πάντα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γνῶσιν, καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω πᾶσαν τὴν πίστιν, ὥστε ὄρη μεθιστάνειν, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδέν εἰμι. Καὶ ἐὰν ψωμίσω πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντά μου, καὶ ἐὰν παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου ἵνα καυθήσομαι, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδὲν ὠφελοῦμαι. Ἡ ἀγάπη μακροθυμεῖ, χρηστεύεται, ἡ ἀγάπη οὐ ζηλοῖ, ἡ ἀγάπη οὐ περπερεύεται, οὐ φυσιοῦται, οὐκ ἀσχημονεῖ, οὐ ζητεῖ τὰ ἑαυτῆς, οὐ παροξύνεται, οὐ λογίζεται τὸ κακόν, οὐ χαίρει ἐπὶ τῇ ἀδικίᾳ, συγχαίρει δὲ τῇ ἀληθείᾳ· πάντα στέγει, πάντα πιστεύει, πάντα ἐλπίζει, πάντα ὑπομένει. Ἡ ἀγάπη οὐδέποτε ἐκπίπτει.	Brethren, you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. [RSV]

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, προσκαλεσάμενος ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοὺς δώδεκα μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν κατὰ πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων, ὥστε ἐκβάλλειν αὐτὰ καὶ θεραπεύειν πᾶσαν νόσον καὶ πᾶσαν μαλακίαν. Τούτους ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, παραγγείλας αὐτοῖς λέγων· Εἰς ὁδὸν ἐθνῶν μὴ ἀπέλθητε καὶ εἰς πόλιν Σαμαρειτῶν μὴ εἰσέλθητε· πορεύεσθε δὲ μᾶλλον πρὸς τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ.

These twelve Jesus sent out, charging them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And preach as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You received without paying, give without pay.” [RSV]

Master and Ruler over all, holy King, You chasten but do not give over to death; You support those who stumble and restore those who are broken down; You remedy humanity’s physical afflictions. We entreat You, our God, to bring Your mercy on this oil, and on those who are anointed with it in Your name, so that it may effect their healing of soul and body, the purging of every disease and infirmity and any infection of body and soul, and relief from all suffering. Yes indeed, Lord, please send Your medicinal power from heaven. Touch the body, lower the fever, ease the pain, and eliminate every hidden ailment. Be the Physician of these Your servants. Raise them from their sick bed. Send them back to Your church, safe and sound, that they may please You and do Your will. [GOASD]

Διὸ ἐξέλθετε ἐκ μέσου αὐτῶν καὶ ἀφορίσθητε, λέγει Κύριος, καὶ ἀκαθάρτου μὴ ἅπτεσθε· κἀγὼ εἰσδέξομαι ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔσομαι ὑμῖν εἰς πατέρα, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔσεσθέ μοι εἰς υἱοὺς καὶ θυγατέρας, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ.

Brethren, you are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will live in them and move among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Therefore come out from them, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch nothing unclean; then I will welcome you, and I will be a father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, ἐλθὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Πέτρου εἶδε τὴν πενθερὰν αὐτοῦ βεβλημένην καὶ πυρέσσουσαν· καὶ ἥψατο τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῆς καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτὴν ὁ πυρετός· καὶ ἠγέρθη καὶ διηκόνει αὐτῷ. Ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ δαιμονιζομένους πολλούς· καὶ ἐξέβαλεν τὰ πνεύματα λόγῳ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας ἐθεράπευσεν, ὅπως πληρωθῇ τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Ἠσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος· Αὐτὸς τὰς ἀσθενείας ἡμῶν ἔλαβε καὶ τὰς νόσους ἐβάστασεν. Ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς πολλοὺς ὄχλους περὶ αὐτόν, ἐκέλευσεν ἀπελθεῖν εἰς τὸ πέραν. Καὶ προσελθὼν εἷς γραμματεὺς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Διδάσκαλε, ἀκολουθήσω σοι ὅπου ἐὰν ἀπέρχῃ. Καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Αἱ ἀλώπεκες φωλεοὺς ἔχουσι καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατασκηνώσεις, ὁ δὲ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου οὐκ ἔχει ποῦ τὴν κεφαλὴν κλίνῃ. Ἕτερος δὲ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Κύριε, ἐπίτρεψόν μοι πρῶτον ἀπελθεῖν καὶ θάψαι τὸν πατέρα μου. Ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Ἀκολούθει μοι, καὶ ἄφες τοὺς νεκροὺς θάψαι τοὺς ἑαυτῶν νεκρούς. Καὶ ἐμβάντι αὐτῷ εἰς τὸ πλοῖον ἠκολούθησαν αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ.	At that time, when Jesus entered Peter’s house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever; he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and served him. That evening they brought to him many who were possessed with demons; and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick. This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, “He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.” Now when Jesus saw great crowds around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side. And a scribe came up and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.” Another of the disciples said to him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.” And when he entered the boat, his disciples followed him.

You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to many prayers. [RSV]

Εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην· Ὡμοιώθη ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν δέκα παρθένοις, αἵτινες λαβοῦσαι τὰς λαμπάδας ἑαυτῶν ἐξῆλθον εἰς ἀπάντησιν τοῦ νυμφίου. Πέντε δὲ ἦσαν ἐξ αὐτῶν φρόνιμοι καὶ αἱ πέντε μωραί. Αἵτινες μωραὶ λαβοῦσαι τὰς λαμπάδας ἑαυτῶν οὐκ ἔλαβον μεθʼ ἑαυτῶν ἔλαιον· αἱ δὲ φρόνιμοι ἔλαβον ἔλαιον ἐν τοῖς ἀγγείοις αὐτῶν μετὰ τῶν λαμπάδων αὐτῶν. Χρονίζοντος δὲ τοῦ νυμφίου ἐνύσταξαν πᾶσαι καὶ ἐκάθευδον. Μέσης δὲ νυκτὸς κραυγὴ γέγονεν· Ἰδοὺ ὁ νυμφίος ἔρχεται, ἐξέρχεσθε εἰς ἀπάντησιν αὐτοῦ. Τότε ἠγέρθησαν πᾶσαι αἱ παρθένοι ἐκεῖναι καὶ ἐκόσμησαν τὰς λαμπάδας αὐτῶν. Αἱ δὲ μωραὶ ταῖς φρονίμοις εἶπον· Δότε ἡμῖν ἐκ τοῦ ἐλαίου ὑμῶν, ὅτι αἱ λαμπάδες ἡμῶν σβέννυνται. Ἀπεκρίθησαν δὲ αἱ φρόνιμοι λέγουσαι· Μήποτε οὐκ ἀρκέσῃ ἡμῖν καὶ ὑμῖν· πορεύεσθε δὲ μᾶλλον πρὸς τοὺς πωλοῦντας καὶ ἀγοράσατε ἑαυταῖς. Ἀπερχομένων δὲ αὐτῶν ἀγοράσαι ἦλθεν ὁ νυμφίος καὶ αἱ ἕτοιμοι εἰσῆλθον μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἰς τοὺς γάμους, καὶ ἐκλείσθη ἡ θύρα. Ὕστερον δὲ ἔρχονται καὶ αἱ λοιπαὶ παρθένοι λέγουσαι· Κύριε κύριε, ἄνοιξον ἡμῖν. Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν· Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐκ οἶδα ὑμᾶς. Γρηγορεῖτε οὖν, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε τὴν ἡμέραν οὐδὲ τὴν ὥραν ἐν ᾗ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται.	The Lord said this parable, “The kingdom of heaven shall be compared to ten maidens who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them; but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. As the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ Then all those maidens rose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise replied, ‘Perhaps there will not be enough for us and for you; go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast; and the door was shut. Afterward the other maidens came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ But he replied, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of man will come.” [RSV]

Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ παιδεύων καὶ πάλιν ἰώμενος· ὁ ἐγείρων ἀπὸ γῆς πτωχὸν καὶ ἀπὸ κοπρίας ἀνυψῶν πένητα· ὁ τῶν ὀρφανῶν πατήρ, καὶ τῶν χειμαζομένων λιμήν, καὶ τῶν νοσούντων ἰατρός· ὁ τὰς ἀσθενείας ἡμῶν ἀπόνως βαστάζων, καὶ τὰς νόσους ἡμῶν λαμβάνων· ὁ ἐν ἱλαρότητι ἐλεῶν· ὁ ὑπερβαίνων ἀνομίας καὶ ἐξαίρων ἀδικίας· ὁ ταχὺς εἰς βοήθειαν καὶ βραδὺς εἰς ὀργήν· ὁ ἐμφυσήσας εἰς τοὺς σεαυτοῦ μαθητὰς καὶ εἰπών· «Λάβετε Πνεῦμα ἄγιον· ἄν τινων ἀφῆτε τὰς ἁμαρτίας, ἀφίενται αὐτοῖς»· ὁ δεχόμενος τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν τὴν μετάνοιαν, καὶ ἐξουσίαν ἔχων συγχωρεῖν ἁμαρτίας πολλὰς καὶ χαλεπὰς καὶ ἴασιν παρέχων πᾶσι τοῖς ἐν ἀσθενείᾳ καὶ μακρονοσίᾳ διάγουσιν· ὁ καὶ ἐμὲ τὸν ταπεινὸν καὶ ἁμαρτωλὸν καὶ ἀνάξιον δοῦλόν σου, τὸν ἐν πολλαῖς ἁμαρτίαις συμπεπλεγμένον, καὶ πάθεσιν ἡδονῶν συγκυλινδούμενον, καλέσας εἰς τὸν ἅγιον καὶ ὑπερμέγιστον βαθμὸν τῆς ἱερωσύνης, καὶ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸ ἐνδότερον τοῦ καταπετάσματος, εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, ὅποῦ παρακύψαι οἱ ἅγιοι ἄγγελοι ἐπιθυμοῦσι, καὶ ἀκοῦσαι τῆς εὐαγγελικῆς φωνῆς Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ θεάσασθαι αὐτοψεὶ τὸ πρόσωπον τῆς ἁγίας ἀναφορᾶς, καὶ ἀπολαῦσαι τῆς θείας καὶ ἱερᾶς λειτουργίας· ὁ καταξιώσας με ἱερουργῆσαι τὰ ἐπουράνιά σου μυστήρια καὶ προσφέρειν σοι δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίας ὑπὲρ τῶν ἡμετέρων ἁμαρτημάτων καὶ τῶν του λαοῦ ἀγνοημάτων, καὶ μεσιτεῦσαι ὑπὲρ τῶν λογικῶν σου προβάτων, ἵνα διὰ τῆς πολλῆς καὶ ἀφάτου σου φιλανθρωπίας τὰ παραπτώματα αὐτῶν ἑξαλείψῃς· αὐτός, ὑπεράγαθε βασιλεῦ, ἐνώτισαι τὴν προσευχήν μου ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ τε καὶ ἁγίᾳ ἡμέρᾳ, καὶ ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ καὶ τόπῳ, καὶ πρόσχες τῇ φωνῇ τῆς δεήσεώς μου· καὶ τῶν δούλων σου τούτων, τῶν ἐν ἀσθενείᾳ ψυχῆς καὶ σώματος ὄντων, τὴν ἴασιν δώρησαι, παρέχων ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῖς, καὶ συγχώρησιν πλημμελημάτων ἑκουσίων τε καὶ ἀκουσίων· θεραπεύων αὐτῶν πληγὰς ἀνιάτους, πᾶσάν τε νόσον καὶ πᾶσαν μαλακίαν. Δώρησαι αὐτοῖς ψυχικὴν ἴασιν, ὁ ἁψάμενος τῆς πενθερᾶς τοῦ Πέτρου, καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτὴν ὁ πυρετός, καὶ ἠγέρθη καὶ διηκόνει σοι. Αὐτός, Δέσποτα, καὶ τοῖς δούλοις σου τούτοις παράσχου ἰατρείαν καὶ ἀπαλλαγὴν πάσης φθοροποιοῦ ἀλγηδόνος· καὶ μνήσθητι τῶν πλουσίων σου οἰκτιρμῶν καὶ τοῦ ἐλέους σου. Μνήσθητι, ὅτι ἐπιμελῶς ἔγκειται ἡ διάνοια τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐπὶ τὰ πονηρὰ ἐκ νεότητος αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐδεὶς εὑρίσκεται ἀναμάρτητος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς· σὺ γὰρ μόνος ἐκτὸς ἁμαρτίας ὑπάρχεις, ὁ ἐλθὼν καὶ σώσας τὸ ἀνθρώπινον γένος, καὶ ἐλευθερώσας ἡμᾶς ἐκ τῆς δουλείας τοῦ ἐχθροῦ· ἐὰν γὰρ εἰς κρίσιν ἔλθῃς μετὰ τῶν δούλων σου, οὐδεὶς εὑρεθήσεται καθαρὸς ἀπὸ ῥύπου· ἀλλὰ πᾶν στόμα φραγήσεται, μὴ ἔχον τὶ ἀπολογήσασθαι, ὅτι ὡς ῥάκος ἀποκαθημένης, πᾶσα ἡ δικαιοσύνη ἡμῶν ἐνώπιόν σου· διὰ τοῦτο ἁμαρτίας νεότητος ἡμῶν μὴ μνησθῇς, Κύριε.	Lord our God, You chasten and then again heal; You raise the poor man from the earth and lift up the poor from the dunghills. Father of orphans, haven of the storm-tossed, and physician of the sick, who easily takes our infirmities and bears our diseases; who cheerfully shows mercy, pardoning iniquities and passing over transgression; quick to help and slow to wrath. You breathed on Your disciples, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven.” You accept the repentance of sinners and have the authority to forgive people their many and grievous sins, and You provide healing to all kinds of people who are sick and chronically ill. Moreover, though I am a low, sinful, and unworthy servant of Yours, entangled in many sins and wallowing in carnal pleasures, yet I have been appointed by You to the lofty holy orders of the priesthood, to enter the holy of holies behind the curtain, into which the holy angels long to look, and to hear the evangelic voice of the Lord God, and to see with their own eyes the outward appearance of the holy anaphora, and to experience the divine and sacred Liturgy. You have allowed me to perform Your heavenly sacraments, to offer You gifts and sacrifices for my own misdeeds and those committed in ignorance by the people, and to intercede on behalf of Your rational sheep, that You will blot out their transgressions, through Your abundant and ineffable benevolence. O King, supremely good, give ear to my prayer now, on this holy day, and always and everywhere, and heed the voice of my supplication. Cure these Your servants, who are sick in soul and body, and grant them forgiveness of sins, and pardon their voluntary and involuntary offenses. Heal their incurable wounds, every disease, and every infirmity. Grant them healing of soul and mind, O Lord, who touched Peter’s mother-in-law, and the fever left her, and she rose and served You. O Master, grant to these Your servants healing and relief from any debilitating pain. Remember Your abundant compassion and Your mercy. Remember that the inclination of the human heart is evil from youth; that no one on earth is without sin, for only You are without sin, You who came and saved the human race, and freed us from slavery to the enemy. For if You were to put Your servants on trial, none would be found to be pure and undefiled; but every mouth would be stopped, having nothing to say in defense, inasmuch as all our righteousness is like a filthy rag before You. Therefore, please do not remember the sins of our youth, O Lord. [GOASD]
Σὺ γὰρ ὑπάρχεις ἐλπὶς τῶν ἀπηλπισμένων, καὶ ἀνάπαυσις τῶν κοπιώντων καὶ πεφορτισμένων ἐν ἀνομίαις, καὶ σοὶ τὴν δόξαν ἀναπέμπομεν, σὺν τῷ ἀνάρχῳ σου Πατρί, καὶ τῷ παναγίῳ καὶ ἀγαθῷ, καὶ ζωοποιῷ σου Πνεύματι, νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.	For You are hope for the hopeless and rest for those who labor and are heavy laden with iniquity. We offer up glory to You and Your Father who is without beginning and Your all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever and to the ages of ages.

Ἀδελφοί, ὁ καρπὸς τοῦ Πνεύματός ἐστιν ἀγάπη, χαρά, εἰρήνη, μακροθυμία, χρηστότης, ἀγαθωσύνη, πίστις, πραότης, ἐγκράτεια· κατὰ τῶν τοιούτων οὐκ ἔστι νόμος. Οἱ δὲ τοῦ Χριστοῦ τὴν σάρκα ἐσταύρωσαν σὺν τοῖς παθήμασι καὶ ταῖς ἐπιθυμίαις. Εἰ ζῶμεν πνεύματι, πνεύματι καὶ στοιχῶμεν. Μὴ γινώμεθα κενόδοξοι, ἀλλήλους προκαλούμενοι, ἀλλήλοις φθονοῦντες. Ἀδελφοί, ἐὰν καὶ προληφθῇ ἄνθρωπος ἔν τινι παραπτώματι, ὑμεῖς οἱ πνευματικοὶ καταρτίζετε τὸν τοιοῦτον ἐν πνεύματι πραότητος, σκοπῶν σεαυτόν, μὴ καὶ σὺ πειρασθῇς. Ἀλλήλων τὰ βάρη βαστάζετε, καὶ οὕτως ἀναπληρώσατε τὸν νόμον τοῦ Χριστοῦ.	Brethren, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another. Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. [RSV]

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὰ μέρη Τύρου καὶ Σιδῶνος. Καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ Χαναναία ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων ἐκείνων ἐξελθοῦσα ἐκραύγασεν αὐτῷ λέγουσα· Ἐλέησόν με, Κύριε, υἱὲ Δαυῒδ· ἡ θυγάτηρ μου κακῶς δαιμονίζεται. Ὁ δὲ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῇ λόγον. Καὶ προσελθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ, ἠρώτων αὐτὸν λέγοντες· Ἀπόλυσον αὐτήν, ὅτι κράζει ὄπισθεν ἡμῶν. Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν· Οὐκ ἀπεστάλην εἰ μὴ εἰς τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ. Ἡ δὲ ἐλθοῦσα προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ λέγουσα· Κύριε, βοήθει μοι. Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν· Οὐκ ἔστι καλὸν λαβεῖν τὸν ἄρτον τῶν τέκνων καὶ βαλεῖν τοῖς κυναρίοις. Ἡ δὲ εἶπε· Ναί, Κύριε· καὶ γὰρ τὰ κυνάρια ἐσθίει ἀπὸ τῶν ψιχίων τῶν πιπτόντων ἀπὸ τῆς τραπέζης τῶν κυρίων αὐτῶν. Τότε ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ· Ὦ γύναι, μεγάλη σου ἡ πίστις! Γενηθήτω σοι ὡς θέλεις. Καὶ ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπὸ τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης.	At that time, Jesus went to the district of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and cried, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely possessed by a demon.” But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying after us.” He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” And he answered, “It is not fair to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.” Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed instantly. [RSV]

Εὐχαριστοῦμέν σοι, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ ἀγαθὸς καὶ φιλάνθρωπος, καὶ ἰατρὸς τῶν ψυχῶν καὶ τῶν σωμάτων ἡμῶν· ὁ τὰς νόσους ἡμῶν ἀπόνως βαστάζων· οὗ τῷ μώλωπι πάντες ἰάθημεν· ὁ ποιμὴν ὁ καλός, ὁ εἰς ἀναζήτησιν ἐλθὼν τοῦ πλανηθέντος προβάτου· ὁ τοῖς ὀλιγοψύχοις διδοὺς παραμυθίαν, καὶ ζωὴν τοῖς συντετριμμένοις· ὁ τὴν πηγὴν τῆς αἱμοῤῥοούσης, δωδεκαετῆ οὖσαν ἰασάμενος· ὁ τὴν θυγατέρα τῆς Χαναναίας τοῦ χαλεποῦ δαιμονίου ἐλευθερώσας· ὁ τὸ δάνειον χαρισάμενος τοῖς δυσὶ χρεωφειλέταις, καὶ τῇ ἁμαρτωλῷ τὴν ἄφεσιν δούς· ὁ τὴν ἴασιν τῷ παραλυτικῷ δωρησάμενος σὺν τῇ ἀφέσει τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ· ὁ τὸν τελώνην τῷ λόγῳ δικαιώσας, καὶ τὸν ληστὴν ἐν τῇ ἐσχάτῃ αὐτοῦ ὁμολογίᾳ προσδεξάμενος· ὁ τὰς ἁμαρτίας τοῦ κόσμου ἀράμενος, καὶ τῷ σταυρῷ προσηλώσας· σοῦ δεόμεθα, καὶ σὲ ἱκετεύομεν· ἐν τῇ ἀγαθότητί σου, αὐτός, ἄνες, ἄφες, συγχώρησον, ὁ Θεός, τὰς ἀνομίας καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας τῶν δούλων σου τούτων, τὰ πλημμελήματα αὐτῶν, τὰ ἑκούσια καὶ τὰ ἀκούσια, τὰ ἐν γνώσει καὶ ἐν ἀγνοίᾳ, τὰ ἐν παραβάσει καὶ ἐν παρακοῇ, τὰ ἐν νυκτὶ καὶ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ· ἢ ὑπὸ κατάραν ἱερέως ἢ πατρὸς ἢ μητρὸς ἐγένοντο· ἢ ὀφθαλμὸν εἱστίασαν ἢ ὄσφρησιν ἐξεθήλυναν ἢ ἀφῇ κατεμαλακίσθησαν ἢ γεύσει κατεπόρνευσαν ἢ ἐν οἱαδήποτε κινήσει σαρκὸς καὶ πνεύματος τοῦ σοῦ ἀπηλλοτριώθησαν θελήματος καὶ τῆς σῆς ἁγιότητος· εἴ τι ἥμαρτον αὐτοί τε καὶ ἡμεῖς, ὡς ἀγαθὸς καὶ ἀμνησίκακος Θεὸς καὶ φιλάνθρωπος, συγχώρησον, μὴ ἐῶν αὐτοὺς καὶ ἡμᾶς εἰς τὸν ῥερυπωμένον βίον καταπεσεῖν, μηδὲ εἰς τὰς ὀλεθρίους ὁδοὺς ἀποτρέχειν. Ναί, Δέσποτα Κύριε, ἐπάκουσόν μου τοῦ ἁμαρτωλοῦ ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ταύτῃ ὑπὲρ τῶν δούλων σου τούτων· πάριδε, ὡς ἀμνησίκακος Θεός, τὰ παραπτώματα αὐτῶν ἅπαντα· ἀπάλλαξον αὐτοὺς τῆς αἰωνίου κολάσεως· τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν τῆς σῆς αἰνέσεως πλήρωσον· τὰ χείλη αὐτῶν ἄνοιξον πρὸς δοξολογίαν τοῦ ὀνόματός σου· τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν ἔκτεινον πρὸς ἐργασίαν τῶν ἐντολῶν σου· τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸν δρόμον τοῦ εὐαγγελίου σου κατεύθυνον, πάντα αὐτῶν τὰ μέλη καὶ τὴν διάνοιαν τῇ σῇ κατασφαλιζόμενος χάριτι. Σὺ γὰρ εἶ ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ διὰ τῶν ἁγίων σου ἀποστόλων ἐντειλάμενος ἡμῖν, λέγων· «Ὅσα ἂν δήσητε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἔσται δεδεμένα ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς· καὶ ὅσα ἂν λύσητε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἔσται λελυμένα ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς»· καὶ πάλιν· «Ἄν τινων ἀφῆτε τὰς ἁμαρτίας, ἀφίενται αὐτοῖς· ἄν τινων κρατῆτε, κεκράτηνται». Καὶ ὡς ἑπήκουσας Ἐζεκίου ἐν τῇ θλίψει τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐ παρεῖδες τὴν δέησιν αὐτοῦ, οὕτω κἀμοῦ τοῦ ταπεινοῦ καὶ ἁμαρτωλοῦ καὶ ἀναξίου δούλου σου ἐπάκουσον ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ταύτῃ δεομένου σου.

We thank You, O Lord our God, good and benevolent, the physician of our souls and bodies, who easily bears our diseases, and by whose bruises we are all healed. You are the good shepherd, who came in search of the sheep that went astray. You give comfort to the fainthearted, and life to those who are crushed. You cured the woman who had suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years. You freed the Canaanite woman’s daughter from the fierce demon. You forgave the loan to the two debtors, and You forgave the woman who was a sinner. You gave the paralytic healing along with forgiveness of his sins. You justified the publican by what he said, and You accepted the robber when he confessed in the end. You took up the sins of the world and nailed them to the cross. We pray You and entreat You. In Your goodness, O God, spare and forgive these Your servants. Pardon their transgressions and sins, their voluntary and involuntary offenses, committed knowingly or unknowingly, in defiance or disobedience, night or day. If they have come under the curse of a priest or a parent; if they have feasted their eyes, or indulged their senses of smell, touch or taste; if they have been detached from Your will and Your holiness, through whichever impulse of flesh or spirit; if they and we ourselves have sinned in any way, forgive us, O good and forgiving and benevolent God, and don’t let us fall into a lifestyle of impurity or run off into ways that are destructive. Yes indeed, O Lord and Master, hear me now, as I the sinner pray for these Your servants. Overlook all their offenses, O forgiving God, and grant them reprieve from everlasting punishment. Fill their mouths with Your praise, and open their lips to glorify Your holy name. Extend their hands to perform Your commandments, and direct their feet on the course of Your Gospel. Make all their members and their thoughts secure in Your grace. For You are our God, who through Your holy Apostles instructed us, saying: “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” And again, “If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.” And as You heard Hezekiah when he was at the point of death and his soul was troubled, and You did not overlook his prayer, so likewise hear me, Your humble, sinful and unworthy servant, as I now pray to You. For You, O Lord Jesus Christ, are the One who in Your mercy and benevolence commanded us to forgive seventy times seven those who fall into sin. You relent from punishing our wicked deeds, and rejoice at the return of those who have strayed. For as Your majesty is, so is Your mercy; and we offer up glory to You and Your Father who is without beginning and Your all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever and to the ages of ages.

Ἀδελφοί, παρακαλοῦμεν ὑμᾶς νουθετεῖτε τοὺς ἀτάκτους, παραμυθεῖσθε τοὺς ὀλιγοψύχους, ἀντέχεσθε τῶν ἀσθενῶν, μακροθυμεῖτε πρὸς πάντας.

Brethren, we exhort you, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all. See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all. Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit, do not despise prophesying, but test everything; hold fast what is good, abstain from every form of evil. May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [RSV]

Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, παράγων ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶδεν ἄνθρωπον καθήμενον ἐπὶ τὸ τελώνιον, Ματθαῖον λεγόμενον, καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· Ἀκολούθει μοι. Καὶ ἀναστὰς ἠκολούθησεν αὐτῷ. Καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ἀνακειμένου ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ, καὶ ἰδοὺ πολλοὶ τελῶναι καὶ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐλθόντες συνανέκειντο τῷ Ἰησοῦ καὶ τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ. Καὶ ἰδόντες οἱ Φαρισαῖοι εἶπον τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ· Διατὶ μετὰ τῶν τελωνῶν καὶ ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐσθίει ὁ διδάσκαλος ὑμῶν; Ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ἀκούσας εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν οἱ ἰσχύοντες ἰατροῦ, ἀλλʼ οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες. Πορευθέντες δὲ μάθετε τί ἐστιν ἔλεον θέλω καὶ οὐ θυσίαν. Οὐ γὰρ ἦλθον καλέσαι δικαίους, ἀλλὰ ἁμαρτωλούς εἰς μετάνοιαν.	At that time, as Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him. And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” [RSV]

Διόπερ καὶ ἡμεῖς, ἀγαθὲ καὶ φιλάνθρωπε, κατὰ τὰς ἀψευδεῖς σου ἐπαγγελίας θαῤῥοῦντες, δεόμεθά σου καὶ ἱκετεύομεν ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ταύτῃ.

Σὺ γὰρ μόνος ὑπάρχεις ἀναμάρτητος· ἡ δικαιοσύνη σου, δικαιοσύνη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ ὁ λόγος σου ἀλήθεια. Οὐ γὰρ ἔπλασας τὸν ἄνθρωπον εἰς ἀπώλειαν, ἀλλʼ εἰς περιποίησιν τῶν ἐντολῶν σου καὶ ζωῆς ἀφθάρτου κληρονομίαν· καὶ σοὶ τὴν δόξαν ἀναπέμπομεν, σὺν τῷ ἀνάρχῳ σου Πατρί, καὶ τῷ παναγίῳ, καὶ ἀγαθῷ, καὶ ζωοποιῷ σου Πνεύματι, νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.	Master, Lord our God, physician of souls and bodies, You treat chronic illnesses; You heal every disease and infirmity among the people. You desire all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth; You do not will the death of sinners, but rather that they should turn from their ways and live. O Lord, in the Old Testament, You appointed repentance for sinners: for David and the Ninevites, and for those before and after them. Again, when You came in the flesh, You did not call the righteous but sinners to repentance; like the publican, the harlot, and the robber, whom You accepted when they repented, and the great apostle Paul, who had been a blasphemer and persecutor. And after Your preeminent apostle Peter denied You three times, when he repented You accepted him and received him, and You told him, “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of Hades shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” So we, too, are encouraged by Your infallible promise, and we now pray and entreat You, O good and benevolent God: Hear our prayer, and accept it as incense offered to You, and visit these Your servants, and however they may have transgressed, in word, deed, or thought, night or day, or if they have come under the curse of a priest, or cursed themselves, or sworn an oath and broken it, we pray You and entreat You to spare, forgive, and pardon them, O God, and to overlook the transgressions and sins that they committed knowingly or unknowingly. And if they defied or disobeyed any of Your commandments, either due to living physically in the world, or through some action of the devil, please forgive them, O good and benevolent God. After all, there is no one who lives and does not sin. Only You are sinless. Your righteousness is forever, and Your word is truth. You created humanity not for ruin, but to keep Your commandments, and to inherit indestructible life. Therefore we offer up glory to You and Your Father who is without beginning and Your all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever and to the ages of ages. [GOASD]

Βασιλεῦ ἅγιε, εὔσπλαγχνε, καὶ πολυέλεε, Κύριε Ἰησοῦ Χριστέ, Υἱὲ καὶ Λόγε τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ ζῶντος, ὁ μὴ θέλων τὸν θάνατον τοῦ ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ὡς τὸ ἐπιστρέψαι καὶ ζῆν αὐτόν· οὐ τίθημι ἐμὴν χεῖρα ἁμαρτωλὸν ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν προσελθόντων σοι ἐν ἁμαρτίαις καὶ αἰτουμένων παρὰ σοῦ διʼ ἡμῶν ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν· ἀλλὰ σὴν χεῖρα κραταιὰν καὶ δυνατήν, τὴν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ εὐαγγελίῳ τούτῳ, [ὃ οἱ συλλειτουργοί μου κατέχουσιν ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν δούλων σου τούτων,] ἔκτεινον· καὶ δέομαι σὺν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἱκετεύω τὴν συμπαθεστάτην καὶ ἀμνησίκακόν σου φιλανθρωπίαν· ὁ Θεός, ὁ Σωτὴρ ἡμῶν, ὁ διὰ τοῦ προφήτου σου Νάθαν μετανοήσαντι τῷ Δαυῒδ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἰδίοις ἁμαρτήμασιν ἄφεσιν δωρησάμενος, καὶ τοῦ Μανασσῆ τὴν ἐπὶ μετανοίᾳ προσευχὴν δεξάμενος, αὐτὸς καὶ τοὺς δούλους σου τούτους μετανοοῦντας ἐπὶ τοῖς ἰδίοις αὐτῶν πλημμελήμασι, πρόσδεξαι τῇ συνήθει σου φιλανθρωπίᾳ, παρορῶν αὐτῶν πάντα τὰ παραπτώματα. Σὺ γὰρ εἶ ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ καὶ ἑβδομηκοντάκις ἑπτὰ ἀφιέναι κελεύσας τοῖς περιπίπτουσιν ἐν ἁμαρτίαις· ὅτι ὡς ἡ μεγαλωσύνη σου, οὕτω καὶ τὸ ἔλεός σου.

Holy King, compassionate and very merciful, Lord Jesus Christ, the Son and Logos of the living God, who desires not the death of sinners, but rather that they should turn and live, it is not I who lay my sinful hand on the heads of these people who have come to You as sinners and who seek the forgiveness of their sins from You through me; but I pray that You extend to Your servants Your mighty and powerful hand, which is in this holy Gospel Book [that my concelebrants are holding over their heads]. And I pray [with them] and implore Your most sympathetic and forgiving benevolence, O God our Savior, who through Your prophet Nathan granted David the forgiveness of his sins when he repented, and who accepted the penitential prayer of Manasseh. Please accept these Your servants who repent of their transgressions, and overlook all their offenses, in Your characteristic benevolence. For You are our God, who said to forgive those who fall into sin, even seventy times seven, because as Your majesty is, so is Your mercy. And all glory, honor and worship belong to You and Your Father who is without beginning and Your all-holy Spirit, now and ever and to the ages of ages. [GOASD]
