Resurrectional Apolytikion Plagal of the First Tone
Let us worship the Word who is unoriginate * with the Father and the Spirit, and from a Virgin was born * for our salvation, O believers, and let us sing His praise. * For in His goodness He was pleased * to ascend the Cross in the flesh, and to undergo death, * and to raise up those who had died, * by His glorious Resurrection. - Copyright Fr. Seraphim Dedes, used by permission. All rights reserved

Apolytikion for John Chrysostom, Archbishop of Constantinople
The grace that from your mouth shone forth like a torch illumined the universe. Treasures from
The absence of avarice it deposited in the world. It showed us the height that is attained by
Humility. Now you instruct us by your words, Father John Chrysostom. Intercede with
Christ God, the Word himself, entreating that our souls be saved.


Apolytikion of the Church
Κανόνα πίστεως, καί εικόνα πραότητος, εγκρατείας διδάσκαλον, ανέδειξέ σε τή ποίμνη σου,
η τών πραγμάτων αλήθεια. Διά τούτο εκτήσω τή ταπεινώσει τά υψηλά, τή πτωχεία τά πλούσια.
Πάτερ Ιεράρχα Νικόλαε, πρέσβευε Χριστώ τώ Θεώ, σωθήναι τάς ψυχάς ημών.

Kanóna písteos ke ikóna praótitos, engratías didáskalon, anédixe se pímni sou,
i ton pragmáton alíthia;dia toúto ektíso ti tapinόsi ta ipsilá, ti ptohía ta ploúsia.
Páter Ierárcha Nikólae, présveve Hristó to Theó, sothíne tas psihás imón.

The truth of things hath revealed thee to thy flock as a rule of faith,
An icon of meekness and a teacher of temperance; for this cause thou hast achieved the
Heights by humility, Riches by poverty. O Father and Hierarch, Nicholas,
Intercede with Christ God that our souls be saved.


Kontakion for The Entrance of the Theotokos
The Savior’s most pure and immaculate temple, the very precious bridal chamber and Virgin,
Who is the sacred treasure of the glory of God, on this day is introduced into the House of the
Lord, and with herself she brings the grace in the divine Spirit. She is extolled by the Angels of
God. A heavenly tabernacle is she.
