Հարց
Word of God, seated above the Cherubim, today with wondrous gifts you manifested holy Mary, throne of glory in heaven, born of Anna. Blessed is the Lord, God of our Fathers. On the Mount of Horeb, O blazing Fire divine revealed in wind and earthquake to the astonishment of the holy prophet, today in compassion and mercy you fashioned Mary, signified in the still air, to become a place for your ineffably humble descent. Blessed is the Lord, God of our Fathers. From early times you depicted the place of your providence, building a temple and a city bearing your exalted name. Today the holy Virgin Mary was truly revealed as the dwelling place of your divinity. Blessed is the Lord, God of our Fathers. Գործք Bless the Lord, all the Lord's creation. Bless and exalt the one born today, the pure Mother of the Word, the ever Virgin. The holy lady is praised in song by the spiritual hosts, born today by the law of nature, the Mother of God the Word, beyond nature. Exalt the one born today, the pure Mother of the Word, the ever Virgin. The holy lady is praised by the ranks of prophets and the blessed apostles; destroyer of Eve's travail, the Mother of Life is today born of Anna. Exalt the one born today, the pure Mother of the Word, the ever Virgin. |
