Apolytikion in the Fourth Tone
Be thou ready, Zabulon; prepare thyself, O Nephthalim. River
Jordan, stay thy course and skip for gladness to receive the Sovereign
Master, Who cometh now to be baptized. O Adam, be thou glad with our
first mother, Eve; hide not as ye did of old in Paradise. Seeing you
naked, He hath appeared now to clothe you in the first robe again.
Christ hath appeared, for He truly willeth to renew all creation.
Kontakion in the Fourth Tone
In the running waters of the Jordan River, on this day the Lord of
all crieth to John: Be not afraid and hesitate not to baptize Me,
for I am come to save Adam, the first-formed man.
