Come, let us worship and fall down

before God, our King.

.
*

Come let us worship and fall down ,

,
.

before Christ, our King and God.

Come, let us worship and fall down ,

before Christ Himself, the King and ,

our God.
.

Bless the Lord, O my soul; O Lord my , ,

God, You have been magnified
exceedingly, You have put on ,

confession and majesty: You Who

,
cover Yourself with light as with a .
garment.
Who stretches out the heaven as if it ,
were a curtain; Who supports His .
chambers in the waters.
Who appoints the clouds for His ,
ascent, Who walks on the wings of the .
winds.
Who makes His Angels spirits, and His
ministers a flame of fire.
,
.
* From

Pascha until its Apodosis

instead of Come, let us worship ...,
we chant: Christ is risen from the
dead, trampling down death by death,
and to those in the tombs He has
granted life, (thrice, once from the
Holy of Holies, and twice by the choir.

Who established the earth in the

sureness thereof; it shall not be turned ,
back to the ages of ages.
.
The abyss like a garment is His mantle;
the waters shall stand on the mountains ,
.
They will flee at Your rebuke, they ,
shall be afraid at the voice of Your .
thunder.
The mountains rise up and the plains ,
sink down, to the place where You , .
have established them.
You appointed a bound that they shall , ,
not pass, neither return to cover the .
earth.
He sends forth springs in the valleys; ,
the waters will run between the
mountains.
.
They shall give drink to all the beasts ,
of the field; the wild asses will wait to .
quench their thirst
The birds of the heaven will lodge '
beside them, they will give voice from
the midst of the rocks.
.
He waters the mountains from His
chambers; the earth shall be satisfied
with the fruit of Your works.
.
He causes the grass to grow for the ,
cattle, and green herb for the service of .
men.
He brings forth bread out of the earth;
and wine makes the heart of man glad. .
To make his face cheerful with oil; and
bread strengthens man's heart.
.
The trees of the plain shall be satisfied, ,
the cedars of Lebanon, which You have , .
planted.

There the sparrows will make their ,

nests; the house of the heron is chief .
among them.
The high mountains are a refuge for the ,
harts, and so is the rock for the hares.
.
He has made the moon for seasons; the
sun knows his going down.
.
You appointed the darkness, and there ,
was the night, wherein all the beasts of
the forest will go abroad.
.
Young lions roaring after their prey, ,
and seeking their food from God.
.
The sun arises, and they gather , ,
together, and they lay down in their

dens.
.
But man shall go forth to his work, and
to his labor until the evening.
,
.
How magnified are Your works, O , ,
Lord! In wisdom You have made them ,
all; the earth is filled with Your .
creation.
So is this great and spacious sea,
therein are innumerable creeping ,
things, small living creatures with the , .
great.
There go the ships; there this dragon ,
whom You have made to play therein. , .
All things wait on You, to give them ,
their food in due season; when You
give it to them, they will gather it. *
. *
When You open Your hand, all things ,
shall be filled with goodness.
.
When You turn away Your face, they ,
shall be troubled.

Small Vespers

You will take away their spirit, and

they shall cease; and they shall return
to their dust.
You will send forth Your Spirit, and
they shall be created; and You shall
renew the face of the earth.
Let the glory of the Lord be to the ages;
the Lord will rejoice in His works.
Who looks on the earth and makes it
tremble, Who touches the mountains
and they smoke.
I will sing to the Lord throughout my
life, I will chant to my God for as long
as I have my being; may my words be
sweet to Him, and I will rejoice in the
Lord.
Oh that sinners would cease from the
earth, and that those who work iniquity
should be no more. Bless the Lord, O
my soul.

Small Vespers

Intone:

Set a watch before my mouth, O Lord, , , ,

and a door of enclosure around my lips. .
Do not incline my heart to evil words,
to make excuse with excuses in sins.
,
.
With men that work iniquity; and I will
not join with their chosen.
,
.
The righteous man will chasten me ,
with mercy and reprove me; but do not ,
let the oil of the sinner anoint my head. .
For yet more is my prayer in the
presence of their pleasures; their judges
have been swallowed up near the rock. .
They shall hear my words, for they are
sweetened; as a clod of earth is broken
on the earth, their bones have been
scattered near to Hades.

,

,
.

For to You, Lord, Lord, are my eyes, I , , ,

have hoped in You; do not take my ,
soul away.
.
Keep me from the snare which they
have laid for me, and from the ,
stumbling blocks of those who work .
iniquity.
The sinners shall fall into their own
net; I am alone until I pass by.
, ,
.
Psalm 141 and Stichera

I have cried with my voice to the Lord, ,

I have made supplication with my .
voice to the Lord.
I will pour out my supplication before ,
Him, I will declare my affliction before
Him.

When my spirit was fainting within me,

then You knew my paths.
, .
In that way on which I have walked , ,
they hid a snare for me.
.
I looked on my right hand, and beheld, , ,
and there was no one who knew me.
.
Flight has failed me, and there is no '
one who watches out for my soul.
.
I have cried to You, Lord; I said: You ,
are my Hope, You are my Portion in , .
the land of the living.
Attend to my supplication, for I am ,
brought very low.
.
Deliver me from those who persecute ,
me, for they are stronger than I.
.
Bring my soul out of prison that I may ,
confess Your name, O Lord.
.
The righteous shall wait patiently for
me until You reward me.
.

Out of the depths I have cried to You, , ,

O Lord; O Lord, hear my voice.
.
Let Your ears be attentive to the voice
of my supplication.
