captured Hell not being tempted by it. You came to the Virgin Life. Lord, Who arose from the dead: Glory to You. Tropar of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary, Tone 1 In giving birth, you preserved your virginity. In falling asleep, you did not forsake the world, Birth-Giver of God. You were translated to life, Mother of Life, and through your prayers you deliver our souls from death. Tropar Equal to the Apostles Abercius, Tone 4 You appeared to your flock as a rule of faith, an image of humility and a teacher of abstinence. Because of your lowliness, Heaven was opened to you. Because of your poverty, riches were granted to you, O Holy Bishop Abercius, pray to Christ our God to save our souls. Kondak of the Resurrection, Tone 6 When Christ God, the Giver of Life, with His Life-Giving Hand raised all of the dead from the valleys of misery, He bestowed Resurrection on the human race. He is the Savior, the Resurrection, the Life and the God of all. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit… Kondak to Bishop Abercius, Tone 8 The whole Church honors you as a great hierarch and as a companion of the Apostles. By your prayers, keep the Church unconquered and unshaken by heresy, glorious Abercius. Now and ever and to the ages of ages. Amen. Kondak of the Dormition, Tone 2 Neither the tomb nor death had power over the Birth-Giver of God; she is ever watchful in her prayers, and in her intercession lies hope. For as the Mother of Life she has been translated to life
