Resurrectional Apolytikion Plagal of the Fourth Tone
O Merciful One, You came from on high, and condescended to Your three day burial to save us from suffering. You are our Life and our Resurrection. Glory to You. -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion for Sunday of St. Mary of Egypt
The image of God, was faithfully preserved in you, O Mother. For you took up the Cross and followed Christ. By Your actions you taught us to look beyond the flesh for it passes, rather to be concerned about the soul which is immortal. Wherefore, O Holy Mary, your soul rejoices with the angels. -Translation by Narthex Press

Apolytikion of the Church
Ο ένσαρκος άγγελος τών Προφητών η κρηπίς, ο δεύτερος Πρόδρομος τής παρουσίας Χριστού, Ηλίας ο ένδοξος, άνωθεν καταπέμψας ελισαίω τήν χάριν, νόσους αποδιώκει, καί λεπρούς καθαρίζει, διό καίτοίς τιμώσιν αυτόν βρύει ιάματα.

The incarnate Angel, the Cornerstone of the Prophets, the second Forerunner of the coming of Christ, the glorioys Elias (Elijah),who from above sent down to Elisha the grace to dispel sickness and cleanse leper, abounds therefore in healing for those who honor him.

Kontakion
O Protection of Christians that cannot be put to shame, mediation unto the creator most constant: O despise not the voices of those who have sinned; but be quick, O good one, to come unto our aid, who in faith cry unto thee: Hasten to intercession and speed thou to make supplication, O thou who dost ever protect, O Theotokos, them that honor thee. - Translation by Holy Transfiguration Monastery
