Resurrection (Most Sundays) Յարութեան Meeyadzeen Vortee Միածին որդի |
| |||
Only begotten Son and Word, God and immortal Being; you took upon yourself to become body from the holy Mother of God and ever Virgin. Without changing, you became man. You were crucified, O Christ our God. By death you trampled on death. You [are] one of the Holy Trinity, glorified together with the Father and with the Holy Spirit. Restore our life!

| |||
We fall down before your precious and all-conquering Cross in worship and we ask for forgiveness of our errors. For through it you took away condemnation from the human race. And now, for the sake of your holy and divine sign, grant heavenly peace to the whole world.

Theophany
Աստուածյայտնութիւն Asdvadzadzeen uzkez khosdovanyal Աստուածածին զքեզ խօստովանեալ |
| |||
O Mother of God, confessing, the Orthodox Church adores you; for while the many-eyed Cherubim and the fiery thrones and the sing-winged Seraphim could not bare to look at the Incorruptible Lord, you bore him in your womb without seed like a hand-maiden. And you gave birth to the God of all as a man--the one who took body from you, the ineffable Word--for the salvation of the world and life for our souls.

Presentation of the Lord to the Temple
Տեառնընդառաջ Dzerooneen aysor Seemeyon Ծերունին այսօր Սիմէօն |
| |||
Today Simeon the elder, filled with the Spirit, came to the temple, appearing most eminent to the Cherubim. For the One at whom they, with fluttering wings, could not bear to gaze because of his awesome glory — this One, lifting Him up in his arms, he daringly kissed and caressed like a child. And pleading, he asked to be dismissed in peace.
