When the stone had been sealed by the Jews; while the soldiers were
guarding Thy most pure Body; Thou didst rise on the third day, O Savior,
granting life to the world. The powers of heaven therefore cried to Thee,
O Giver of Life: Glory to Thy resurrection, O Christ! Glory to Thy
Kingdom! Glory to Thy dispensation, O Thou who lovest mankind.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
As God, Thou didst rise from the tomb in glory, raising the world with
Thyself. Human nature praises Thee as God, for death has vanished! Adam
exults, O Master! Eve rejoices, for she is freed from bondage, and cries
to Thee: Thou art the Giver of Resurrection to all, O Christ!
