SUMMARY:Tuesday\, July 14\, 2026\;  The Holy Apostle Aquila
DESCRIPTION:AT Vespers ON MONDAY EVENING\n\nAt Psalm 140\n\nTone 1\, Podobe
 n “Joy of the ranks of heaven…”\n\nIf You mark iniquities\, Lord\, w
 ho can stand?* But with You forgiveness is that You may be revered.\n\nThe
  great Paul\, the sun of the earth\, emits you\, O blessed and divinely wi
 se one\,* upon the world like a radiant beam\,* to enlighten with the sple
 ndid radiant splendour of Your words* those who languished of old in the n
 ight of ignorance.\n\nI have waited for You as You have commanded\; my sou
 l patiently relies on Your promise\,* for it has trusted in the Lord.\n\nY
 our pure heart\, O Aquila\, of godly eloquence\,* richly illumined with th
 e brilliant rays of the divine Spirit\,* was shown to be truly luminous\,*
  and destroyed the cruel darkness of the heathen* with the grace of God.\n
 \nFrom the morning watch until night* let Israel trust in the Lord.\n\nThe
 y who have recourse to your divine temple* and entreat your therein with f
 aith\, O Aquila\,* are delivered from all manner of infirmities\, from tri
 bulations and sorrows\,* by your sacred supplications* and intercessions b
 efore God\, O sacred one.\n\nTone 4\, Podoben “As one valiant among the 
 martyrs…”\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\nWith mature mind but a child’s body\, O martyr Cyricus\,* with manl
 y wisdom you put to shame the infantile tyrant.* Therefore\, grievously to
 rturing you at his tribunal\,* he imposed death upon you* who were mindful
  of the life which grows not old\, into which you have entered\,* drenched
  forever with blood unstaunched.\n\nPraise the Lord\, all the nations\;* p
 roclaim His glory\, all you people.\n\nO glorious Julitta\, with spiritual
  outpourings you broughtforth Cyricus* who sprang forth from your womb lik
 e a fruitful vine\,* and is truly slain and trodden out in the tyrant’s 
 wine-press.* Pouring forth the wine of compunction with him\,* gladden the
  hearts of those who keep your memory with faith.\n\nStrong is the love of
  the Lord for us\;* eternally will His truth endure.\n\nHaving come close 
 to wounds\, O right wondrous one\,* you likewise truly endured the convuls
 ion of your body\;* and beholding your son’s end with your own eyes\,* y
 ou passed through a double torture\, O Julitta.* Therefore\, the Judge of 
 the contest bestows twofold crowns upon you\,* omnipotently granting the v
 ictory to those who contend.\n\nTone 6\, Glory…\n\nCome\, all of you\, a
 nd behold a sight strange and all-glorious!* Who has ever seen a child of 
 three years putting a tyrant to shame?* O\, the wonder!* He drank of his m
 other’s milk and cried out to her who nourished him:* Fear not the tortu
 res of the cruel ruler of this world\, O my mother\,* for Christ is the st
 rength of those who believe on Him!\n\nTone 6\, Now….\n\nО most holy Vi
 rgin\, show forth upon me\, the wretched one\,* the depths of your love fo
 r mankind\,* the abyss of your tender compassion\, and the countless compa
 ssions of thy goodness.* Mow down the stubble of sin\, granting me chastit
 y\,* and preserve my body and soul undefiled\,* О you who have given birt
 h to the Saviour.\n\nAposticha\n\nTone 6\n\nAt Your fearful Coming\, O Chr
 ist\, may we not hear the words: I know you not.* For though\, O Saviour\,
  we have put our trust in You\,* from negligence we have not kept not Your
  commandments\;* yet we entreat You\, spare our souls.\n\nI have lifted up
  my eyes to You enthroned in heaven. Behold\, as the eyes of servants are 
 on the hands of their masters\, as 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 u
 s.\n\nI have no repentance and I have no tears.* Wherefore I entreat You\,
  O Christ God:* before the end is here turn me back and grant me compuncti
 on\,* that I may be delivered from the torments of Hades.\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 the mockery of the rich\, of the contempt of the 
 proud.\n\nО martyred passion-bearers\,* citizens of heaven\, who suffered
  on the earth\,* you endured many torments.* By their supplications and en
 treaty\, О Lord\, preserve us all.\n\nTone 8\, Glory…\n\nA child of thr
 ee years proclaimed the Trinity\;* he who was yet unweaned rendered his ow
 n mother steadfast\, saying:* Cease shedding your tears\, O my mother!* Th
 e Creator is watching from on high and will save our souls!\n\nTone 8\, No
 w…\n\nRejoice\, glory of the universe! * Rejoice\, temple of the Lord! *
  Rejoice\, mountain overshadowed! * Rejoice\, refuge of all! * Rejoice\, g
 olden candlestick! * Rejoice\, honoured glory of True Christians! * Rejoic
 e\, Mary\, Mother of Christ God! * Rejoice\, paradise!* Rejoice\, divine t
 able! * Rejoice\, tabernacle!* Rejoice\, golden jar! * Rejoice\, thou hope
  of all!\n\nTroparia\n\nTone 3\n\nHoly Apostle\, Aquila\, intercede with t
 he merciful God* to grant our souls forgiveness of sins.\n\nGlory… Now
 …\n\nO Mother of God\, powerful protectress of the world\,* you are our 
 shelter and you are our strength.* Through your intercession\, protect you
 r servants against all dangers\,* for you are the only blessed One!\n\nAT
