Σήμερον κρεμάται επί ξύλου ο εν ύδασι την γην κρεμάσας.
Today He who hung the earth upon the waters is hung on the Tree.
Σήμερον κρεμάται επί ξύλου ο εν ύδασι την γην κρεμάσας.
The King of the angels is decked with a crown of thorns.
He who wraps the heavens in clouds is wrapped in the purple of mockery.
He who freed Adam in the Jordan is slapped on the face.
The Bridegroom of the Church is affixed to the Cross with nails.
The Son of the Virgin is pierced by a spear.
We worship Thy passion, O Christ.
Покланяемся страстем Твоим, Христе.
We worship Thy passion, O Christ.
Show us also Thy glorious resurrection.
