_Alleluia, thrice, repeating alleluia to every verse of the rest of the
psalm. Glory, alleluia. Both now, alleluia._
_Troparion, tone ii._
In faith, and hope, and love, and meekness, and in chastity, and in
the priestly dignity thou piously hast liv’d, thou aye remember’d one.
Therefore the eternal God, whom thou hast served, in a bright and
pleasant place, where rest the just, thy soul hath plac’d; and, at the
judgment-seat of Christ, thou shalt forgiveness gain, and mercy great.
_Kathisma, tone v._
Thou knowest, O our God, that we were born in sin. Therefore we thee
beseech, Rest him who is remov’d from us, o’erlooking, as the good one,
the iniquities, which he, as mortal man, hath done in life, through the
God-bearing one’s entreaties, thou sole lover of mankind.
_Prokimenon, tone vi._
Blessed is he whom thou hast chosen and received, O Lord.
_Verse._ His remembrance is to generation and generation.
