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.

O Paisios, our father, you dwell now with all the holy ascetics, and you are a partner with all the Saints. You had a prophet’s eye, for you saw the future as the present. You also did the work of an apostle; for while living on Athos, like a magnet you attracted crowds of people, and you directed them to repentance and salvation. Your life showed you to be a martyr as well, for you bravely endured protracted labors of asceticism, and the pains of illness, with joy for the sake of Christ. Entreat Him now to save our souls.

O devout father Paisios, after you celebrated the memory of all-praised St. Euphemia, you were taken up to the heavenly mansions. There you were received by the all-glorious Martyr, whom you had received before in your modest cabin, and also by devout St. Arsenios, whose godly life you emulated from childhood and which you revealed to all. We entreat you now, O honored trinity of Saints, God-bearer Arsenios, godly-minded Paisios, and victorious Martyr Euphemia: offer our prayers together with yours to the All-holy Trinity, and ask that forgiveness of sins and great mercy be given to us.

Blessed are you, O God-bearer Paisios, for you were granted to behold the most handsome Christ God, all light, all sweetness, all inexpressible beauty. Therefore in ecstasy you cried out and said: “How did people dare to spit on your dazzling face, O benevolent Lord? And how was I, the wretch, granted to see it? It would take all the efforts of the ascetics of all time to make one worthy?” And now we entreat you, O all-blessed and devout Saint, as you unceasingly look at Christ the Savior face to face, implore Him that on Judgment Day we be counted worthy with a clear conscience to behold His face.

Who would not marvel at the ardor of your love and the might of your mediation with the Lord, O devout Paisios! You but gazed at the suffering with a compassionate eye, and incurable aliments were cured. You clutched demoniacs in your warm embrace, and the frightened demons would be driven out. You spoke with your fiery tongue, and hearts were converted by the divine energy in your words. Even now, you reach us from on high, and you save us from dangers, accidents, and troubles. Therefore we offer praise and gratitude to God, and we say: “Blessed are You, O God, for You have given us a physician, a protector, and unsleeping intercessor.” [SD]

Οὕτω πολιτευόμενοι, γεύσεσθε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς οὐρανίου εὐφροσύνης, καὶ ἐν οὐρανῷ τῆς αἰωνίου χαρᾶς ἀξιωθήσεσθε.

Thus says Paisios, inspired by God, as he directs us in the law of Christ the Savior: “Blessed are you, if you acquire love and humility, for you shall become the dwelling of the Holy Spirit. Blessed are you, if you deny yourselves and give rest to your neighbor, for you shall enjoy true rest. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, you who endure affliction and injustice with gratitude, for you have become imitators of Christ, who suffered for us voluntarily. If you live this way, you will taste heavenly bliss even here on earth, and in heaven you will be counted worthy of eternal joy.” [SD]

Ὑπὲρ τῶν μισούντων καὶ ἀγαπώντων ἡμᾶς.

For those who hate us and those who love us.

Ὑπερ τῶν ἐντειλαμένων ἡμῖν τοῖς ἀναξίοις εὔχεσθαι ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν.

For those who have asked us, the unworthy, to pray for them.

Ὑπὲρ ἀναῤῥύσεως τῶν αἰχμαλώτων.

For the release of the captives.

Ὑπερ τῶν ἐν θαλάσσῃ καλῶς πλεόντων.

For those sailing the seas.

Ὑπὲρ τῶν ἐν ἀσθενείαις κατακειμένων.

For those laid up with illnesses.

Εὐξώμεθα καὶ ὑπὲρ εὐφορίας τῶν καρπῶν τῆς γῆς.

Let us also pray for the abundance of the fruits of the earth.

Καὶ ὑπὲρ πάντων τῶν προαναπαυσαμένων πατέρων καὶ ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν, τῶν ἐνθάδε εὐσεβῶς κειμένων καὶ ἁπανταχοῦ ὀρθοδόξων.

And for all our fathers and brethren departed this life, those who lie here in peace, and the Orthodox everywhere.

Εἴπωμεν καὶ ὑπὲρ ἑαυτῶν, τὸ Κύριε, ἐλέησον. Κύριε, ἐλέησον. Κύριε, ἐλέησον.

Let us say for ourselves, also: Lord, have mercy; Lord, have mercy; Lord, have mercy.

Διʼ εὐχῶν τῶν ἁγίων πατέρων ἡμῶν, Κύριε Ἰησοῦ Χριστὲ ὁ Θεός, ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς.

Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.
