Αὕτη ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν ᾗ ὁ Ἀδὰμ ἠλευθερώθη, ἐν ᾗ ἡ Εὕα ἀπηλλάγη τῆς λύπης, ἐν ᾗ ὁ ἀνήμερος θάνατος ἔφριξεν, ἐν ᾗ τῶν κραταιῶν λίθων ἡ δύναμις παρελύθη ῥαγεῖσα καὶ τὰ τῶν μνημείων κλεῖθρα διασπασθέντα ἀνέθη, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν τελευτησάντων πάλαι σώματα τῇ προτέρᾳ ζωῇ παρεδόθη, ἐν ᾗ οἱ διὰ παντὸς ἰσχυροὶ καὶ βέβαιοι τῶν καταχθονίων νόμοι ἥττηνται, ἐν ᾗ ἐξανισταμένου τοῦ δεσπότου Χριστοῦ οἱ οὐρανοὶ ἀνεῴχθησαν, ἐν ᾗ τὸ τῆς ἀναστάσεως εὐθαλὲς καὶ εὔκαρπον ὡς ἐν κήπῳ τῇ οἰκουμένῃ τῷ γένει τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐβλάστησεν, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν νεοφωτίστων ἀνεφύησαν κρίνα, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐξηράνθησαν ῥεῖθρα, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τοῦ διαβόλου παρελύθησαν νεῦρα, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν δαιμόνων ἐσκορπίσθησαν τάγματα, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν Ἰουδαίων κατῃσχύνθησαν πλήθη, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν πιστῶν εὐφραίνονται τάγματα, ἐν ᾗ τὰ τῶν μαρτύρων ἀναθάλλουσι διαδήματα. «Ταύτην τοίνυν τὴν ἡμέραν ἐποίησεν ὁ κύριος, ἀγαλλιασώμεθα καὶ εὐφρανθῶμεν ἐν αὐτῇ», χάριτι τοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ διὰ τῆς αὐτοῦ ἀναστάσεως τὴν σύμπασαν οἰκουμένην «ἐν σκότει καὶ σκιᾷ θανάτου καθημένην» φωτίσαντος, μεθ' οὗ τῷ Πατρὶ σὺν τῷ ἁγίῳ Πνεύματι δόξα καὶ προσκύνησις εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων. Ἀμήν.
