The Epistle

(Greek first)I' Provscwmen. (Let us be attentive.)Y' (intoned) Their souls will dwell among the righteous.(verse) To You, O Lord, have I cried, O my God.

I' Sofiva. (Wisdom.)Y' The Reading is from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Thessalonians.

(1 Thessalonians 4:13-17)

I' Provscwmen. (Let us be attentive.)Y' Brethren, we would not have you ignorant concerning those who are asleep, lest you should grieve like others who have no hope. For if we believe Jesus died and rose again, so with him God will bring those also who have fallen asleep through Jesus. For this we say to you in the word of the Lord, that we who live, who survive until the Lord’s coming, shall not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself with a cry of command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God will come down from heaven; and the dead in Christ shall rise up first. Then we who live, who survive, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall ever be with the Lord.

I' Eirhvnh soi tw anaginwvskonti. (Peace be unto you the reader.)Y' (sung) Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a.(intoned) Happy the one you have chosen and adopted: he shall dwell in your courts.(sung) Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a.(intoned) And his name shall survive for ever and ever.(sung) Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a` Allhlouvi&a.

I' The Lord said, “Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and, ‘The time is at hand!’ Do not go after them. And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified; for this must first take place, but the end will not be at once. And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations ... for it will come suddenly like a snare; for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man.”Y' Dovxa soi, Kuvrie, dovxa soi.

And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages. Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten, not created, of one essence with the Father, through whom all things were made.For us and for our salvation, He came down from heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became man.He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and He suffered and was buried.On the third day He rose according to the Scriptures.He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead. His kingdom will have no end.And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father, who together with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified, who spoke through the prophets.I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.I expect the resurrection of the dead.And the life of the ages to come. Amen.

I' O God of spirits and of all flesh, You have trampled upon death and have abolished the power of the devil, giving life to Your world.

As a good and loving God, forgive every sin they have committed in thought, word, or deed, for there is no one who lives and does not sin. You alone are without sin. Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Your word is truth.
