 \nTone 1\n\nIf You mark iniquities\, Lord\, who can stand?* But with You f
 orgiveness is that You may be revered.\n\nIn Your goodness\, О Lord\,* Yo
 u brought all things about by Your Word and Spirit\,* and also created me 
 a reason-endowed living thing\,* that I might glorify Your omnipotent name
 .* But\, more than any\, I ever act dishonourably by my shameful deeds\;* 
 yet have pity on me\, I pray.\n\nI have waited for You as You have command
 ed\; my soul patiently relies on Your promise\,* for it has trusted in the
  Lord.\n\nI recognize your divine nobility and the incorrupt homeland\, О
  wretched soul\,* and I ever strive to attain them by goodly deeds.* Let a
 ll that is corrupt never captivate me.* You are my higher part\, while the
  body is earth and corrupts.* Let not what is baser overcome that which is
  higher.\n\nFrom the morning watch until night* let Israel trust in the Lo
 rd.\n\nGo to the Supremely good One\, О all-accursed soul\;* approach Him
  with fervent tears\;* before your condemnation confess all things that yo
 u have done\;* and render your Creator merciful to you\, О wretched one.*
  Beg forgiveness\, lest the Lord shut the door to you.\n\nTone 8\, Podoben
  “Your martyrs\, O Lord…”\n\nFor with the Lord there is mercy\, and 
 with Him there is plentiful redemption\;* and He shall redeem Israel from 
 all its iniquities.\n\nMaking themselves like to the incorporeal ones\, O 
 Lord\,* with prayer and abstinence Your saints dispelled the passions of t
 he flesh* and\, shining with wondrous works\, have illumined the hearts of
  all.* Through their supplication grant Your people great mercy.\n\nPraise
  the Lord\, all the nations\;* proclaim His glory\, all you people.\n\nTak
 ing up zeal for the virtues\,* Dalmatus and Isaac manifestly set at nought
  the heresy of Arius and Nestorius\,* and as champions of the orthodox hav
 e received the acclaim of all.* Through their prayers\, O Christ\, grant Y
 our people great mercy.\n\nStrong is the love of the Lord for us\;* eterna
 lly will His truth endure.\n\nHaving shown yourselves to be stars of the f
 irmament of abstinence\, O venerable fathers\,* you have illumined the mon
 astics\, driving away the darkness of the demons.* Therefore\, even after 
 your repose you are called blessed\,* praying that all be saved who celebr
 ate your godly memory.\n\nTone 8\, Glory… Now…\n\nWoe is him who has a
 ngered his God!* Woe is me who abide in despondency and slothfulness and i
 gnorance\, as I do!* O Virgin and Mistress: help me who am benighted\,* an
 d entreat your Son and Creator* to grant me forgiveness of mine offenses.\
 n\nProkeimenon\, Tone 8\n\nAnd now bless the Lord\,* all you servants of t
 he Lord.\n\nverse: Who stand in the temple of the Lord\, in the courtyards
  of the house of our God.\n\nAposticha\n\nTone 1\n\nGreat is the abyss of 
 my many transgressions\, О Saviour\,* and I sink grievously because of my
  offenses.* Grant me Your hand\, as You did to Peter\, О God.* Save me an
 d have mercy upon me!\n\nI have lifted up my eyes to You enthroned in heav
 en. Behold\, as the eyes of servants are on the hands of their masters\, a
 s the eyes of a maid are on the hands of her mistress\, so are our eyes on
  the Lord our God until He has mercy on us.\n\nIn that I have been condemn
 ed for wicked thoughts and deeds\, О Saviour\,* grant me the thought of r
 eturning to You\, О God\,* that I may cry aloud: Save me\, О good Benefa
 ctor\,* and have mercy upon me!\n\nHave mercy on us\, O Lord\, have mercy 
 on us\; for we have been filled with shame\; our soul is all too full of t
 he mockery of the rich\, of the contempt of the proud.\n\nThrough the pray
 ers of all the saints and the Theotokos\,* О Lord\, grant us Your peace\,
 * and have mercy upon us\,* in that You alone are compassionate.\n\nGlory
 … Now…\n\nJoy of the ranks of heaven\,* and mighty intercession for ma
 nkind on earth\, O most pure Virgin:* save us who have recourse to you\,* 
 for in you\, after God\,* have we placed our hope\, O Theotokos.\n\nTropar
 ia\n\nTone 4\n\nO God of our fathers\,* You always deal with us according 
 to Your everlasting compassion\,* take not Your mercy away from us\;* but 
 through the prayers of our fathers\,* guide our lives along the ways of pe
 ace.\n\nGlory… Now…\n\nTo the One who was reared in the Temple\,* clos
 e to the Holy of Holies\,* and who was full of faith\, wisdom\, and perfec
