Ὁ Κύριος ἐβασίλευσεν,
εὐπρέπειαν ἐνεδύσατο, ἐνεδύσατο
Κύριος δύναμιν καί
περιεζώσατο. Καί γάρ ἐστερέωσε τήν οἰκουμένην, ἥτις οὐ σαλευθήσεται.

ποιήσει πάσας τάς αἰνέσεις Αὐτοῦ;

3 Ὀφθαλμοί Κυρίου ἐπί τούς ἐλπίζοντας ἐπί τό ἔλεος
Αὐτοῦ. Τοῦ ἀκοῦσαι τοῦ στεναγμοῦ τῶν
πεπεδημένων, τοῦ λῦσαι τούς υἱούς τῶν τεθανατωμένων.
Σῶσον ἡμᾶς, Υἱὲ Θεοῦ, ὁ ἀναστὰς ἐκ
νεκρῶν, ψάλλοντάς σοι· Ἀλληλούϊα.

Σταυρῷ, ἵνα ῥύσῃ οὓς ἔπλασας ἐκ τῆς δουλείας τοῦ ἐχθροῦ, ὅθεν εὐχαρίστως
βοῶμέν σοι· Χαρᾶς
ἐπλήρωσας τὰ πάντα, ὁ Σωτὴρ ἡμῶν, παραγενόμενος εἰς τὸ σῶσαι τὸν κόσμον.

Εὐλογητὸς εἶ, Χριστὲ ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ πανσόφους τοὺς
ἁλιεῖς ἀναδείξας, καταπέμψας αὐτοῖς τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον, καὶ δι' αὐτῶν τὴν
οἰκουμένην σαγηνεύσας, φιλάνθρωπε, δόξα σοι.
Ἀπολυτίκιον – Ἦχος δ'
Κανόνα πίστεως καὶ εἰκόνα πραότητος, ἐγκρατείας
Διδάσκαλον, ἀνέδειξέ σε τῇ ποίμνῃ σου, ἡ τῶν πραγμάτων ἀλήθεια· διὰ τοῦτο
ἐκτήσω τῇ ταπεινώσει τὰ ὑψηλά, τῇ πτωχείᾳ τὰ πλούσια, Πάτερ Ἱεράρχα Νικόλαε·

Τῇ ὑπερμάχῳ στρατηγῷ τὰ νικητήρια, ὡς λυτρωθεῖσα τῶν δεινῶν, εὐχαριστήρια, ἀναγράφω σοι ἡ Πόλις σου, Θεοτόκε· ἀλλ' ὡς ἔχουσα τὸ κράτος ἀπροσμάχητον, ἐκ παντοίων με κινδύνων ἐλευθέρωσον ἵνα κράζω σοι· Χαῖρε, Νύμφη ἀνύμφευτε.
Τρισάγιον.
Εἰς τό ᾽Εξαιρέτως: Ἀντὶ τοῦ «῎Αξιόν ἐστιν...»,

σoὶ χαίρει, Κεχαριτωμένη, πᾶσα ἡ κτίσις. Ἀγγέλων τὸ σύστημα καὶ ἀνθρώπων τὸ
γένος, ἡγιασμένε ναὲ καὶ παράδεισε λογικέ, παρθενικὸν καύχημα, ἐξ ἧς Θεός
ἐσαρκώθη καὶ παιδίον γέγονεν, ὁ πρὸ αἰώνων ὑπάρχων Θεὸς ἡμῶν· τὴν γὰρ σὴν μήτραν θρόνον ἐποίησε, καὶ τὴν σὴν
γαστέρα πλατυτέραν οὐρανῶν ἀπειργάσατο. Ἐπὶ σοὶ χαίρει, Κεχαριτωμένη, πᾶσα ἡ
κτίσις δόξα σοι.
Κοινωνικόν: «Αἰνεῖτε...».
«Εἴδομεν τό φῶς...», κτλ.
Εἴη τό ὄνομα Κυρίου…
Ἀπόλυσις: Ὁ ἀναστὰς ἐκ νεκρῶν Χριστὸς...

Saint Artemon, Bishop of
Seleucia, was born and lived in Pisidian Seleucia (Asia Minor). He was pious
and virtuous, wherefore the holy Apostle Paul established him as first bishop
of this city. Artemon wisely nourished the flock entrusted to him and won
glory as a comforter of the poor and oppressed. He died in extreme old age.
The hieromartyr
Parthenios III,
Patriarch of Constantinople, guided the Church in the years 1656-1657.
|
He
was accused of state treason and was tortured for his refusal to accept
Islam. The saint died on Lazarus Saturday in 1657. Prologue from Ochrid; Translated by Fr S. Janos
Born
in Mytilene, Parthenios first served as Metropolitan of Chios. The slander against him originated among
the Tatars in Kazakhstan, but the Vizier who interrogated him was not
convinced of his guilt. Yet, not
desiring to offend the Tatars, he suggested conversion. vatopedi.wordpress.com
