14th Sunday of Luke

Resurrectional Apolytikion in the Second Tone
When You descended unto death, O Lord who yourself are immortal Life,
then did You mortify Hades by the lightning flash of Your Divinity.
Also when You raised the dead from the netherworld, all the Powers of
the heavens were crying out: O Giver of life, Christ our God, glory
be to You.

Resurrectional Kontakion in the Second Tone
You rose from the tomb, O Savior all-powerful, * and Hades beheld the
marvel and was struck with fear, * and the dead were rising up, and
creation beholds and rejoices with You, * and Adam is also exultant; O my
Savior, and the world ever sings Your praise.

Seasonal Kontakion in the First Tone
Your birth sanctified a Virgin's womb and properly blessed the hands
of Symeon. Having now come and saved us O Christ our God, give
peace to Your commonwealth in troubled times and strengthen those in
authority, whom You love, as only the loving One.
