Εν εκκλησίαις ευλογείτε τον Θεόν, Κύριον εκ πηγών Ισλαήλ. Σώσον ημάς,Υιέ Θεού, ο Αναστάς εκ νεκρών, ψάλλαντας Σοι\, Aλληλούια.
In places of congregation bless God, the Lord, / from the springs of Israel. / Save us O Son of God,/ who rose from the dead,/ to You we sing alleluia.


Resurrectional Apolytikion Fourth Tone
Τό φαιδρόν τής Αναστάσεως κήρυγμα, εκ τού Αγγέλου μαθούσαι αι τού Κυρίου Μαθήτριαι, καί τήν προγονικήν απόφασιν απορρίψασαι, τοίς Αποστόλοις καυχώμεναι έλεγον• Εσκύλευται ο θάνατος, ηγέρθη Χριστός ο Θεός, δωρούμενος τώ κόσμω τό μέγα έλεος.
When the tidings of the resurrection from the glorious angel was proclaimed unto the women disciples and our ancestral sentence also had been abolished to the Apostles with boasting did they proclaim that death is vanquished evermore and Christ our God has risen from the dead and granted to the world His great mercy.


Hymn of our Church, for St. Paul (4th tone)
Ethnos se kirika ke fostira trismegiston, Athineon didaskalon ekoumenis aglaisma, efrosinos gereromen tous agonas timomen ke tas vasanous thriahiston, to septon sou martirion, Agie Paule, Apostole, presveve Christo to Theo, sothine tas psichas imon.
O preacher to the gentiles and thrice grandest shining star, the Athenians teacher and the universe ornament, we joyously honor you. We pay homage to the struggles that you had for sake of Christ, and your dignified martyrdom.Holy and glorious Apostle Paul. Intercede with Christ our God, entreating Him to save our souls.

Kontakion of Pascha
Into the grave you descended, Immortal One,/ yet you destroyed the power of Hades,/ and as victor/ you arose, O Christ our God;/ you proclaimed to the myrrh-bearing women/ a greeting of joy,/ you brought peace to your holy apostles,/ and to the fallen/ you granted resurrection.
