Eni ke stichira tou Pascha

Στίχ. Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ταῖς δυναστείαις αὐτοῦ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς μεγαλωσύνης αὐτοῦ.

Ὑμνοῦμέν σου Χριστέ, τὸ σωτήριον Πάθος, καὶ δοξάζομέν σου τὴν Ἀνάστασιν.

Στίχ. Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ἤχῳ, σάλπιγγος, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ καὶ κιθάρᾳ.

Ὁ Σταυρὸν ὑπομείνας, καὶ τὸν θάνατον καταργήσας, καὶ ἀναστὰς ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν, εἰρήνευσον ἡμῶν τὴν ζωήν, Κύριε, ὡς μόνος παντοδύναμος.

Στίχ. Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν τυμπάνῳ καὶ χορῷ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν χορδαῖς καὶ ὀργάνῳ.

Ὁ τὸν ᾍδην σκυλεύσας, καὶ τὸν ἄνθρωπον ἀναστήσας, τῇ ἀναστάσει σου, Χριστέ, ἀξίωσον ἡμᾶς, ἐν καθαρᾷ καρδίᾳ, ὑμνεῖν καὶ δοξάζειν σε.

Στίχ.Αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις εὐήχοις, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις ἀλαλαγμοῦ. Πᾶσα πνοὴ αἰνεσάτω τὸν Κύριον.

Τὴν θεοπρεπῆ σου συγκατάβασιν δοξάζοντες ὑμνοῦμέν σε, Χριστέ, ἐτέχθης ἐκ Παρθένου καὶ ἀχώριστος ὑπῆρχες τῷ Πατρί, Ἔπαθες ὡς ἄνθρωπος, καὶ ἑκουσίως ὑπέμεινας σταυρόν, Ἀνέστης ἐκ τοῦ τάφου, ὡς ἐκ παστάδος προελθὼν, ἵνα σώσῃς τὸν κόσμον, Κύριε, δόξα σοι.

Στίχ. Ἀναστήτω ὁ Θεός, καὶ διασκορπισθήτωσαν οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ φυγέτωσαν ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ οἱ μισοῦντες αὐτόν.

Πάσχα ἱερὸν ἡμῖν σήμερον ἀναδέδεικται, Πάσχα καινόν, Ἅγιον, Πάσχα μυστικόν, Πάσχα πανσεβάσμιον, Πάσχα Χριστὸς ὁ λυτρωτής, Πάσχα ἄμωμον, Πάσχα μέγα, Πάσχα τῶν πιστῶν, Πάσχα, τὸ πύλας ἡμῖν τοῦ Παραδείσου ἀνοῖξαν, Πάσχα, πάντας ἁγιάζον πιστούς.

Στίχ. Ὡς ἐκλείπει καπνός, ἐκλιπέτωσαν, ὡς τήκεται κηρὸς ἀπὸ προσώπου πυρός.

Δεῦτε ἀπὸ θέας Γυναῖκες εὐαγγελίστριαι, καὶ τῇ Σιὼν εἴπατε, Δέχου παρ’ ἡμῶν χαρᾶς εὐαγγέλια, τῆς Ἀναστάσεως Χριστοῦ, τέρπου, χόρευε, καὶ ἀγάλλου Ἱερουσαλήμ, τὸν Βασιλέα Χριστόν, θεασαμένη ἐκ τοῦ μνήματος, ὡς νυμφίον προερχόμενον.

Στίχ. Οὕτως ἀπολοῦνται οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ. καὶ οἱ δίκαιοι εὐφρανθήτωσαν.

Αἱ Μυροφόροι γυναῖκες, ὄρθρου βαθέος, ἐπιστᾶσαι πρὸς τὸ μνῆμα τοῦ Ζωοδότου, εὗρον Ἄγγελον, ἐπὶ τὸν λίθον καθήμενον, καὶ αὐτὸς προσφθεγξάμενος, αὐταῖς οὕτως ἔλεγε. Τί ζητεῖτε τὸν ζῶντα μετὰ τῶν νεκρῶν; τί θρηνεῖτε τὸν ἄφθαρτον ὡς ἐν φθορᾷ; ἀπελθοῦσαι κηρύξατε, τοῖς αὐτοῦ Μαθηταῖς.

Στίχ. Αὕτη ἡ ἡμέρα, ἣν ἐποίησεν ὁ Κύριος, ἀγαλλιασώμεθα, καὶ εὐφρανθῶμεν ἐν αὐτῇ.

Πάσχα τὸ τερπνόν, Πάσχα Κυρίου, Πάσχα, Πάσχα πανσεβάσμιον ἡμῖν ἀνέτειλε, Πάσχα, ἐν χαρᾷ ἀλλήλους περιπτυξώμεθα, ὢ Πάσχα λύτρον λύπης, καὶ γὰρ ἐκ τάφου σήμερον ὥσπερ ἐκ παστοῦ, ἐκλάμψας Χριστός, τὰ γύναια χαρᾶς ἔπλησε λέγων, κηρύξατε Ἀποστόλοις.

Easter Praises and Verses

Praise him for his powers, praise him for the height of his greatness.

We hymn, Christ, your salvational Passion, and glorify your Ressurection.

Praise him in the sound of trumpets, praise him with lutes and guitars.

You, who endured the Cross and abolished death, and rose from the dead, pacify our life, Lord, as the only omnipotent.

Praise him with drums and songs, praise him with strings and organs.

You, who beat Hades, and ressurected humanity with your ressurection, Christ, make us worthy, with clear hearts, to praise and glorify you.

Praise him with cymbals of harmony, praise him with cymbals of clamor. May everything that breathes praise the Lord.

Glorifying your divine condescension, we praise you, Christ. You were born by a Virgin and remained inseparate from the Father. You suffered as a human, and willingly endured the cross. You rose from the tomb, like coming out of a royal chamber, to save the world. Glory to you, Lord.

May God rise and his enemies scatter away, and depart from him the ones who hate him.

Today a holy Pascha has been declared to us, a new, Holy Pascha, a secret Pascha, an all-venerable Pascha, Pascha Christ the savior, an immaculate Pascha, a great Pascha, a Pascha of the faithful. Pascha, the one that opened for us the gates of Heaven, a Pascha that sanctifies all faithful.

Just like smoke dissolves, so they may dissolve, just like candle melts before fire.

Come, preacher Women from your testimony, and tell Zion "Receive from us the good news of joy, of Christ's Ressurection. Rejoice, sing and jubilate, Jerusalem, seeing Christ the King coming from the tomb, like a bridegroom."

Thus the sinners may depart before God, and the just ones may rejoice.

The myrrh-bearing women, early before dawn, standing before the tomb of the Life-giver, found an Angel, sitting on the stone; and he greeted them and told them thus "Why seeking the living one between the dead? Why mourning for the incorruptible one, as being in decay? Depart and inform his disciples."

During this day the Lord made, let us rejoice and jubilate.

Pascha the joyful, Pascha of the Lord, Pascha, an all-venerable Pascha rose for us, Pascha, joyfully let us embrace each other, o Pascha, ransom against sorrow, for today Christ shone from the tomb like being in a royal chamber, and filled the women with joy by saying "Inform the disciples."
