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\nTheotokion\n\no
 r this Stavrotheotokion:\n\nTone 6\, Now… Podoben “On the third day…
 ”\n\nThe pure Virgin Mother\, beholding the most iniquitous men* nailing
  You unjustly to the Tree\,* was wounded in her womb\, O Saviour\,* as Sym
 eon foretold.\n\nAposticha\n\nTone 6\n\nAt Your fearful Coming\, O Christ\
 , 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 com
 mandments\;* 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 t
 he 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 us.\n
 \nI have no repentance and I have no tears.* Wherefore I entreat You\, O C
 hrist God:* before the end is here turn me back and grant me compunction\,
 * 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 sou
 l is all too full of the mockery of the rich\, of the contempt of the prou
 d.\n\nО martyred passion-bearers\,* citizens of heaven\, who suffered on 
 the earth\,* you endured many torments.* By their supplications and entrea
 ty\, О Lord\, preserve us all.\n\nTone 8\, Glory…\n\nA child of three y
 ears proclaimed the Trinity\;* he who was yet unweaned rendered his own mo
 ther steadfast\, saying:* Cease shedding your tears\, O my mother!* The Cr
 eator is watching from on high and will save our souls!\n\nTone 8\, Now…
 \n\nRejoice\, glory of the universe! * Rejoice\, temple of the Lord! * Rej
 oice\, mountain overshadowed! * Rejoice\, refuge of all! * Rejoice\, golde
 n candlestick! * Rejoice\, honoured glory of True Christians! * Rejoice\, 
 Mary\, Mother of Christ God! * Rejoice\, paradise!* Rejoice\, divine table
 ! * Rejoice\, tabernacle!* Rejoice\, golden jar! * Rejoice\, thou hope of 
 all!\n\nTroparia\n\nTone 3\n\nHoly Apostle\, Aquila\, intercede with the m
 erciful God* to grant our souls forgiveness of sins.\n\nGlory… Now…\n\
 nO Mother of God\, powerful protectress of the world\,* you are our shelte
 r and you are our strength.* Through your intercession\, protect your serv
 ants against all dangers\,* for you are the only blessed One!\n\nAT DIVINE
