4 Priest: For thou art a merciful God and lovest mankind, and unto thee we ascribe glory, to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Choir: Amen. Bless, Father, in the Name of the Lord. Priest: Glory to the holy, consubstantial, life-giving and undivided Trinity, always, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Choir: Amen. Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, and good will toward men. (Thrice) O Lord, open Thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth Thy praise. (Twice) O Lord, why are they multiplied that afflict me? Many rise up against me. Many say unto my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God. But Thou, O Lord, art my helper, my glory, and the lifter up of my head. I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and He heard me out of His holy mountain. I laid me down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord will help me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people that set themselves against me round about. Arise, O Lord, save me, O my God, for Thou hast smitten all who without cause are mine enemies; the teeth of sinners hast Thou broken. Salvation is of the Lord, and Thy blessing is upon Thy people. I laid me down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord will help me. O Lord, rebuke me not in Thine anger, nor chasten me in Thy wrath. For Thine arrows are fastened in me, and Thou hast laid Thy hand heavily upon me. There is no healing in my flesh in the face of Thy wrath; and there PSALM 3 PSALM 37 4 ي م و م حاااب ل لب كااار و لااا ك الكاااا أل نااا ك لااا ي ر اااي ن ر اا ا الم جاا د أ ي اااا ا ب و اا اا و الاار وا القاا د س ا و ن ا أ وا و إلى د هر الد اه ر ي. آمي. الجوقة ب ا م الر ب بار هللا يا أب. القا د وس الم سااو فاي الكاا الم جاد ل ل ا ال و ه ر الم ح يي ير الم نق س م ن ا ي ا الج و و ن ا أ وا و إ لى د هر الد اه ر ي. الجوقة آمي. الم ج د هلل في الل لى و لى األ رب الس ال و في الن اس الم س رة. )ثالثا ) س ب ح ك. يا ر ب اف ش ي ف ي ب ر ف م ي )م ر ت ي ( يا ر ب ل ماذا ن ر ال ذ ي ي حا ن ون ن ي ن يرو ماموا ل ي. ن يرو ي قولو ل ن سي ا خ الص ل ب إ لا. وأ ن يا ر ب ناك ر و م ج د و ارف ع ك ر خ ف جا ن ي أر ي. ب و ت ي لى الر ب م ج ب ا م د. أنا ر م دئ ون م ث م م م أل الر ب ي ن ر ن ي. ف ال أ خاف م ر بوائ الك ل ب الم حيطي ي الم واس ر ي لي. م م يا ر ب اي ف إ ن ك ض ن ي يا ل ر ب ن ا م ي لاد يني خ ل با ال و ح ق أ نا ال ط ة. ل لر ب ال الص و لى ش ب ك ر ك ك. أ نا ر م د ئ و ن م ث م م م أل الر ب ي ن ر ني. يا ر ب ا ب ض ب ك ت و ب ني وا ر جا هللا ت د ني. ف إ اام ك مد ن ك ب ف ي و م ك ن ي م و ج لي يد هللا. ل يس ل ج س د ش ا

5 is no peace in my bones in the face of my sins. For mine iniquities are risen higher than my head; as a heavy burden have they pressed heavily upon me. My bruises are become noisome and corrupt in the face of my folly. I have been wretched and utterly bowed down until the end; all the day long I went with downcast face. For my loins are filled with mocking, and there is no healing in my flesh. I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly, I have roared from the groaning of my heart. O Lord, before Thee is all my desire, and my groaning is not hid from Thee. My heart is troubled, my strength hath failed me; and the light of mine eyes, even this is not with me. My friends and my neighbors drew nigh over against me and stood, and my nearest of kin stood afar off. And they that sought after my soul used violence; and they that sought evils for me spake vain things, and craftinesses all the day long did they meditate. But as for me, like a deaf man I heard them not, and was as a speechless man that openeth not his mouth. And I became as a man that heareth not, and that hath in his mouth no reproofs. For in Thee have I hoped, O Lord; Thou wilt hearken unto me, O Lord my God. For I said: Let never mine enemies rejoice over me; yea, when my feet were shaken, those men spake boastful words against me. For I am ready for scourges, and my sorrow is continually before me. For I will declare mine iniquity, and I will take heed concerning my sin. But mine enemies live and are made stronger than I, and they that hated me unjustly are multiplied. They that render me evil for good slandered me, because I pursued goodness. Forsake me not, O Lord my God, depart not from me. Be attentive unto my help, O Lord of my salvation. Forsake me not, O Lord my God, depart not from me. Be attentive unto my help, O Lord of my salvation. 5 ض ب ك و ا الم ةي في رامي م و ج خ طايا. أل آثامي م د ت لال ف وق ر أ ي ك ح ما ث قيا م د ث ق ل ل ي. م د أ ن ن وما ج ار اتي م م ب ا ج اال ي. ش ق ي و انح ن ي لى م ك ي اب سا. أل م ن ي م د ال اي ة والن اار ن ل ام أل م ااس ئ وليس ل ج س د ش ا. ش ق ي و ات ض ل ج دا و ن ن أ ئ م ت ن ا د م لب ي. يا ر ب ب ي ي ن ل اا أمام ك وت ن ا د ل م ي ف نك. م د اض ط ر ب م لب ي و فار م ن ي م و ت ي و ن ور أ ك د مائي وأ مر بائي ين ي أ يضا ل م ي بق م لي. ا م ن ي و و م وا ل د و ج نس ي و م ف م ن ي ب ل يد ا. د ن و ل ي و أ ج ا د ن ي ال ذ ي ي طل ب و ن س ي و الم ل م س و الك ر ت ك ل م وا ب البا ا و ك وشا ول الن اار ي س م ع و ن خر س ا د ر وا. أما أنا ف ك ك م ا ي س م ع وا في ف م ي فاه. وك رئ نإ نسا ا ت بك ي ي. أل ن ي ل يك يا ر ب ت و ن ل أ ن ت س ج يب لي يا ر ب ي وإلاي. أل ن ي م ل ا ي ك م ي أ دائي و ند ما س ل م د ما ر م وا م س ل د و و ج ل ي ل ي الك ال. أل ن ي أ نا ل لض رب ل د في ن ا ي. أل ن ي أ نا أ خ ب ر ب إ ثم ي و أ ه م م أ ج ا خ ط ي ي. أ ما أ دائي ف يا و ه م أ ش د م ن ي وم د ن ر ال ذ ي ي ب ضون ن ي ظ لما ال ذ ي جاس ون ي د ل ال ير ش ر ا م ح ل وا ي ألجا ا ائي ال الا. ف ال ت ام لني يا ر ب ي و إلاي وا أ ر ع لى م ل ون ي يا ر ب ت با د ن ي. خ الكي. ف ال ت ام لني يا ر ب ي و إلاي وا ت با د ن ي. أ ر ع لى م ل ون ي يا ر ب خ الكي.

6 O God, my God, unto Thee I rise early at dawn. My soul hath thirsted for Thee; how often hath my flesh longed after Thee in a land barren and untrodden and unwatered. So in the sanctuary have I appeared before Thee to see Thy power and Thy glory. For Thy mercy is better than lives; my lips shall praise Thee. So shall I bless Thee in my life, and in Thy name will I lift up my hands. As with marrow and fatness let my soul be filled, and with lips rejoicing shall my mouth praise Thee. If I remembered Thee on my bed, at the dawn I meditated on Thee. For Thou art become my helper; in the shelter of Thy wings will I rejoice. My soul hath cleaved after Thee; Thy right hand hath been quick to help me. But as for these, in vain have they sought after my soul; they shall go into the nethermost parts of the earth, they shall be surrendered unto the edge of the sword; portions for foxes shall they be. But the king shall be glad in God, everyone shall be praised that sweareth by Him; for the mouth of them is stopped that speak unjust things. At the dawn I meditated on Thee. For Thou art become my helper; in the shelter of Thy wings will I rejoice. My soul hath cleaved after Thee; Thy right hand hath been quick to help me. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia. Glory to Thee, O God. (Thrice) Lord, have mercy. (Thrice) Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

7 PSALM 87 Both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. O Lord God of my salvation, by day have I cried and by night before Thee. Let my prayer come before Thee, bow down Thine ear unto my supplication, for filled with evils is my soul, and my life unto Hades hath drawn nigh. I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am become as a man without help, free among the dead, like the bodies of the slain that sleep in the grave, whom Thou rememberest no more, and they are cut off from Thy hand. They laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness and in the shadow of death. Against me is Thine anger made strong, and all Thy billows hast Thou brought upon me. Thou hast removed my friends afar from me; they have made me an abomination unto themselves. I have been delivered up, and have not come forth; mine eyes are grown weak from poverty. I have cried unto Thee, O Lord, the whole day long; I have stretched out my hands unto Thee. Nay, for the dead wilt Thou work wonders? Or shall physicians raise them up that they may give thanks unto Thee? Nay, shall any in the grave tell of Thy mercy, and of Thy truth in that destruction? Nay, shall Thy wonders be known in that darkness, and Thy righteousness in that land that is forgotten? But as for me, unto Thee, O Lord, have I cried; and in the morning shall my prayer come before Thee. Wherefore, O Lord, dost Thou cast off my soul and turnest Thy face away from me? A poor man am I, and in troubles from my youth; yea, having been exalted, I was humbled and brought to distress. Thy furies have passed upon me, and Thy terrors have sorely troubled me. They came round about me like water, all the day long they compassed me about together. Thou hast removed afar from me 7 ا ونا أوا وإلى د هر الد اهري. آمي. ك ر خ وفي يا ر ب ل خالكي في الن اار الل يا أمام ك ف ل دخ ا م د ام ك كالتي أ م ا أ ذ ن ك لى ل ب ي ف ق د ام أل ئ م الك ر ور ن سي و د ن م الج حيم ياتي. س ب م ع الم نح د ر ي في الج ب ك رئ م ا نسا ل يس ل م ل ي ي م طر و ا ي األموائ م ا الق لى و ه م الر امد ي في الق ب ور ال ذ ي ا ت ذك ر ه م أ يضا أ ا م ي د هللا م ق و. ج ل ل وني في ج ب الم و ئ و ظ الل. ل ي الساف ل ي في ظ ل مائ ا ق ر ض ب ك و ج م يع أ هوال ك أ ج ات اا ل ي. أ بل د ئ ن ي م لار ف ي ج ل ل ون ي ل ا م ر جا ة. م د أ ل م و ما خ ر ج و ينا ض ل ا م ك ر خ ليك يا ر ب الن اار ن ل الم سك نة. وإليك ب س ط ي د. أ ل ل ل ك ل أل موائ ت ن ع الل جائ ب أ األ ب ا ي يم ون ا م ف ي ل ر ف و ل ك ه ا ي ح د أ ي د في القبر ر م ك وفي الاال هللا بحق ك ها ت لر ف في الر لم ة جائ ب ك و دل ك ك ر خ في أ رب م نس ي ة وأنا ليك يا ر ب ف بل ك في ال داة كالتي. ل ماذا يا ر ب ت ق ي ن سي و ت ر ف و ج ا ك ن ي ف ق ي ي ر أنا وفي الك قا م نذ ش با ي و ي ارت ل ات ض ل و ت ح ي رئ. ل ي جاس ر جا هللا و م ا ات ك أ س ج ن ي. أ ا ي نالما والن اار ن ل اك ن ن ي م ل ا. أ بل د ئ ن ي ال د يق و الق ر يب

8 friend and neighbor, and mine acquaintances because of my misery. O Lord God of my salvation, by day have I cried and by night before Thee. Let my prayer come before Thee, bow down Thine ear unto my supplication. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all that He hath done for thee, Who is gracious unto all thine iniquities, Who healeth all thine infirmities, Who redeemeth thy life from corruption, Who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion, Who fulfilleth thy desire with good things; thy youth shall be renewed as the eagle s. The Lord performeth deeds of mercy, and executeth judgment for all them that are wronged. He hath made His ways known unto Moses, unto the sons of Israel the things that He hath willed. Compassionate and merciful is the Lord, long-suffering and plenteous in mercy; not unto the end will He be angered; neither unto eternity will He be wroth. Not according to our iniquities hath He dealt with us, neither according to our sins hath He rewarded us. For according to the height of heaven from the earth, the Lord hath made His mercy to prevail over them that fear Him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our iniquities from us. Like as a father hath compassion upon his sons, so hath the Lord had compassion upon them that fear Him; for He knoweth whereof we are made, He hath remembered that we are dust. As for man, his days are as the grass; as a flower of the field, so shall he blossom forth. For when the wind is passed over it, then it shall be gone, and no longer will it know the place thereof. But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity, even unto eternity, upon them that fear Him.

9 righteousness is upon sons of sons, upon them that keep His testament and remember His commandments to do them. The Lord in heaven hath prepared His throne, and His kingdom ruleth over all. Bless the Lord, all ye His angels, mighty in strength, that perform His word, to hear the voice of His words. Bless the Lord, all ye His hosts, His ministers that do His will. Bless the Lord, all ye His works, in every place of His dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul. In every place of His dominion, bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord, hear my prayer, give ear unto my supplication in Thy truth; hearken unto me in Thy righteousness. And enter not into judgment with Thy servant, for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified. For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath humbled my life down to the earth. He hath sat me in darkness as those that have been long dead, and my spirit within me is become despondent; within me my heart is troubled. I remembered days of old, I meditated on all Thy works, I pondered on the creations of Thy hands. I stretched forth my hands unto Thee; my soul thirsteth after Thee like a waterless land. Quickly hear me, O Lord; my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not Thy face away from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. Cause me to hear Thy mercy in the morning; for in Thee have I put my hope. Cause me to know, O Lord, the way wherein I should walk; for unto Thee have I lifted up my soul. Rescue me from mine enemies, O Lord; unto Thee have I fled for refuge. Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God. Thy good Spirit shall lead me in the land of uprightness; for Thy name s sake, O Lord, shalt Thou quicken me. In Thy righteousness shalt Thou bring my soul out of affliction, PSALM اد ه و الذ اك ر ي و كاياه ل ي ن ل وها. الر ب ه ي رش في الس ما و م مل ك ت س ود لى الج ميع. بار ن وا الر ب يا ج م يع م الئ ك الم ق د ر ي ب ق و ة و ئ ن الم. اللام ل ي ب ك ل م ند ماع ك بار نوا الر ب يا ج م يع م وات يا خ د ام اللام لي ارد ت. بار ن وا الر ب يا ج م يع أ مال في ن ا م وض ع ياد ت. بار ني يا ن سي الر ب. في ن ا م وض ع ياد ت. بار ني يا ن سي الر ب. اااا ب ح قاااا ك لااااى يااااا ر ب ا اااا م ع كاااا التي و أ ن لب اااااي. ااااا ج ب لاااااي ب لااااا دل ك وا تااااا دخ ا فاااااي أ ماما ك أ الم حاك م ة م ع بد هللا فإ ن لا ي ا كاى اللاا د و ماا د اضاا ط ا د ن سااي و أ ذ ل لااى ااي. أل و أ جل ساااا ن ي فااااي الر ل مااااائ م اااا ا األرب ياااااتي الم وتى م نا ذ الاد هر ف ضا ج ر ئ ر و اي واضا طر ب م لب ي في داخ لاي. تا ذ ك رئ األيا ا الق د يماة. ها ذ ذئ كااا نائ ع يااا د يك. فاااي نااا ا أ مالااا ك و ت م لااا فاااي ب س ط ي د ليك و ن س ي لاك نا ر. رب ا ت مطا أ ر ع ف ا ج ب ل ي يا ر ب ف قا د ف ن يا ر و اي. ا ت اااا ر ف و ج ااااا ك ناااا ي ف شاااااب الااااااب ط ي فااااي الج ب. ج ل لني في ال داة م س م ل ا ر م ك فإن ي ل يااااك ت و ن لاااا. ر فنااااي يااااا ر ب الط ريااااق الاااا ذ أ ل ك في ف إ ن ي لياك ر ف لا ن ساي. أ نقا ذني ما أ دائي يا ر ب ف إ ن ي مد ل ج ئ ل يا ك. ل مناي أ مااااا ا م رضاااااات ك أل نااااا ك أنااااا لااااااي. ر و ااااا ك أ م ساا يمة. ماا أ جاا ا ال ااال ي ااا د يني فااي أ رب ا ااااا م ك ياااااا ر ب ت ح ي يناااااي. ب لااااا دل ك ت ااااار ج مااااا

13 THOMAS SUNDAY KATHISMATA (Plain Reading) As the Disciples were gathered in the upper chamber of Zion, for fear of the Jews, Thou didst enter unto them, O good One. Thou didst stand in their midst, the doors being shut, and filled them with joy when Thou didst show them the wounds of Thy hands and unpolluted side, saying unto the doubting Disciple: Reach out thy hand, examine, probe, that I am He Who suffered for thy sake. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Thou didst stand in the midst of the Disciples, the doors being shut, O Christ, Life of all, and showed them Thy side, hands and feet together, a prelude to belief in Thy Resurrection from the tomb. But Thomas happened not to be there. Therefore, spake he, saying: If I see not with mine own eyes, I will not be convinced by your words. Both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. When the Lord rose from the tomb and appeared ineffably to the Disciples, He said: Having seen, O Thomas, My side and the prints of the nails, why believest thou not in My Resurrection? But Didymus, being convinced, called out to the Creator, saying: Thou art verily my Lord and my God. اي و م ج م لي ذ نا ال الميذ في ل ي ة ك وم ي خ وفا م الي اود د خ ل ل يا م أي اا ال ال وو م فيما ين ا م واألواب م ل ق ة وأ و ب ا م رو ار ل م ا أ ر ي ا م ن لو ي د يك وج نب ك م ال ساد مائال ن حو ال لميذ الم رتاب : الب ر هائ ي د هللا وافح م كا ن ي أنا ه و الذ ك رئ ألجل ك م ل ما. الم جد لالب واا والروا الق د س. أي اا الم سي ياة الك ا لق د و م بال الميذ واألواب م ل ق ة وأ ر ي ا م ج نب ك وي د يك ور جل ي ك ملا وذلك م ق د م ة ل ديق انب لاث ك م القبر. ا أ توما ل م ي اد ف ه ناهللا ف ل ذل ك ت و ه مائال : ل س أم ن ع ب موال ك م ي قينا. ل م أ شاه د ع يانا ا ونا أوا وإلى د هر الد اه ري. آمي. الر ب ل ما ما م الق بر وظ ا ر ل ل الميذ بما ا ك ف مال : يا توما ذ مد شاه د ئ ج نبي ي و وث قوب الم سامير ف ل ماذا ا ت م ب يام ي وأما هو أ فل ما ام ن ع ه ف مائ ال ل ل ال ق : أن ال و رب ي وإلاي.

17 Priest: At that time, the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw Him, they worshipped Him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, All power in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age. Amen. Choir: Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee. Reader: In that we have beheld the resurrection of Christ, let us worship the holy Lord Jesus, the only sinless One. Thy cross do we adore, O Christ, and Thy holy resurrection we praise and glorify; for Thou art our God, and we know none other beside Thee; we call upon Thy name. O come, all ye faithful, let us adore Christ s holy resurrection. For lo, through the cross is joy come into all the world. Ever blessing the Lord, let us sing His resurrection, for in that He endured the cross for us, He hath destroyed death by death. PSALM 50 ر ة Have mercy on me, O God, according to Thy Great Mercy; and according to the multitude of Thy compassions blot out my transgression. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know mine iniquity, and my sin is ever before me. Against Thee only have I sinned and done this evil before Thee, that Thou mightest be justified in Thy words, and prevail when Thou art judged. 17 الكا في ذلك الاما ذهب ال الميذ األ د أ م ر ه م ك ر لى الج ليا لى الج ب ا يث ي سوع ف ل م ا أروه ج دوا ل ول ك ب ل ضا م ش ك وا ف د نا ي سوع ون ل م ا م مائ ال : ن ي م د أ طي ن ا لطا في الس ما و لى األرب فاذه بوا ا وت لم ذوا ن ا األ م م م ل م دي ي اه م با م ا ب واا والروا الق د س و ل موه م أ ي ح روا ك ي ك م ب وها أنا م ل ك م ن ا أ و ج ميع ما األيا لى م ن اى الد هر. آمي. المرتل الم ج د ل ك يا ر ب الم ج د ل ك. ف لن س ج د القا ىء ذ م د أرينا ق يام ة الم سي ل الر ب الاق د وس ي سوع الم ل و م ال ط و د ه. ل لاياب ك أي اا الم سي ن س ج د ول ا يام ك الم ق د ة ن س ب ون م ج د ألن ك أن هو لا نا وآخ ر واهللا ا ن لر ف وبا م ك ن س مي. ه ل م يا م لك ر الم مني ن س ج د ل يام ة الم سي الم ق د ة أل هوذا بال ليب م د أتى ال ر ا ل ك ا اللال ام. ل ن بار هللا الر ب في نا ي ون س ب ق يام ألن ذ ا م ا ال لب م أج بالم و ئ الم و ئ ل نا ط م. ار مناااي ياااا إ ب ل رااايم ر م ااا ك ون م ااا ا ن ااا أرف ك ام م آث مي. ساااااا لني ن ياااااا ار ماااااا ثمااااااي وماااااا خ طي ااااااي ا ا رني. ألناا ي أنااا ااار ي ف بااإثمي وخ طي ااي أمااامي فااي كا ي. ليااك و ااد هللا أخطاا ئ والكاار ماا د ام ك كاا ن ل لك ي ت د ق في أموال ك وت ل ب في م حاك م ك.

18 For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother bear me. For behold, Thou hast loved truth; the hidden and secret things of Thy wisdom hast Thou made manifest unto me. Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be made clean; Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. Thou shalt make me to hear joy and gladness; the bones that be humbled, they shall rejoice. Turn Thy face away from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and with Thy governing Spirit establish me. I shall teach transgressors Thy ways, and the ungodly shall turn back unto Thee. Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; my tongue shall rejoice in Thy righteousness. O Lord, Thou shalt open my lips, and my mouth shall declare Thy praise. For if Thou hadst desired sacrifice, I had given it; with whole-burnt offerings Thou shalt not be pleased. A sacrifice unto God is a broken spirit; a heart that is broken and humbled God will not despise. Do good, O Lord, in Thy good pleasure unto Zion, and let the walls of Jerusalem be built up. Then shalt Thou be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, with oblation and wholeburnt offerings. Then shall they offer bullocks upon Thine altar. 18 ها ناذا با ثاا با ا اي وبال طاياا و لا د تني أ مي. وأو ضااااا ح لاااااي ألنااااا ك مااااا د أ ب بااااا الحاااااق وام ض ك م ك وم س و ارت اا. سا ل ني فا ي ض ت نض ح ني بالاوفى فا ا ر ت أك ر م ال لج. ت سااا م ل ني ا جااا ة و ااارو ار ف بااا ا ج راااامي الذ ليل ة. وامااا ناااا ا ك ااا خ طاياااا اكااا ر ف وج اااا مآث مي. يا ا اخ لا اق فا ي ياا إ م سا يما ورو اا م لباا ن ج د د في أ كائي. ا ت طر نااااااي ماااااا أمااااااا و ج ااااااا ك ورو اااااا ك الق د وس ا ت نا من ي. امن ح نااااي ا جاااا ة خالكاااا ك وباااا روا رئا اااا ي ا ض د ني. األ ث م ة ر م ك والك ر ة ليك ي رج لو. ف ل م أنقاااا ذني ماااا الااااد ما يااااا إ لااااا خ الكااااي في ب ا ج ل ساني ب ل د لا ك. س ب ح ك. يا رب اف ش ي ف ي ب ر ف مي ألنك لو آث رئ الذ يح ة ل ك نا ا أ طاي لك ن ك ا ت س ر بالم ح ر مائ. م نسااا ح يق الق لاااب الم كااا ع الذ يحااا ة هلل رو ي ا والم واض ع ا ي رذ ل إ. أكااااا ل ياااااا رب ب م سااااا ر ت ك كااااا ا ي و ولاااااا ب أ وار أورش ليم. ين ذ ت س ر ذ يح ة الل د ل م ربانا وم حر مائ. ين ذ ي ق ر بو لى م ذب ح ك الل جول.

KONTAKION AND OIKOS FOR THOMAS SUNDAY (Plain Reading) س With his searching right hand, Thomas did الم سي اال ج probe Thy life-bestowing side, O Christ God; for when Thou didst enter whilst the doors were shut, he cried out unto Thee with the rest of the Apostles: Thou art my Lord and my God. المرتل : آمي. بالي مي ال ض ول ي ة أي اا ت وما ج نب ك الواه ب الح ياة. فإن لما د خ ل واألواب م ل ق ة ه ف ليك مع ائ ر ال الميذ : أن هو ر ب ي وإلاي.

THE SYNAXARION (Plain Reading) On May 1 in the Holy Orthodox Church, we commemorate the Prophet Jeremiah; and Venerable-martyrs Euthymios, Ignatius and Akakios of Prodromou skete on Athos. On this day, the second Sunday of Pascha, we inaugurate the celebration of Christ s Resurrection, and the occasion whereon the Holy Apostle Thomas touched the Savior s side. Verses If the seals of the Virgin s womb and of the grave did not hinder Thee, How could the seals of the doors hinder Thy might, O Savior? This day is called New Sunday, Thomas Sunday or Anti-Pascha. The last term means in place of Pascha because Thomas did not immediately hear of Christ s Resurrection and disbelieved it. Starting with this day, the Church dedicates Sunday to the celebration of the Resurrection. As the Disciples were gathered together on Pascha, Jesus entered and greeted them in His usual way, saying, Peace be unto you. Then He showed them His hands, feet and side. Jesus ate with His Disciples and reassured them of His Resurrection. However, Thomas was not with them at that time, and insisted upon seeing the Savior s wounds the print of the nails in His hands and feet, and the spear in His side before he would believe that Jesus was risen. Eight days later, Christ appeared again to the Disciples, this time with Thomas present. The Master told Thomas to see and feel His wounds. Then Thomas immediately cried out, My Lord and my God! But Jesus tells His Disciples, Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe. This event also clearly illustrates the human and divine Natures of Christ. By the intercessions of Thine Apostle Thomas, O Christ our God, have mercy on us. Amen. THE KATAVASIAE OF THE PASCHAL CANON IN TONE ONE Ode 1. It is the day of Resurrection, let us be radiant, O ye peoples; Pascha, the Lord s Pascha; for Christ God hath brought us from death unto life, and from earth unto Heaven as we sing the triumphal hymn. و ال ياماا ة فلناا ألأل أي اااا الكاا لوب و ياا -1 ألياا اااااا الاااااار ب وذلاااااا ك أل اااااا هااااااو ف أل ال الم سي لا نا م د أجاس نا ما الماو ئ لاى الح يااة وم األرب لى الس ما ن ح الم نك دي ن كايد ر والر ر. الن 21
