was put together will be dissolved, which the life-giver will raise incorruptible in the time of regeneration; but my spirit I commend into your hands. Give rest, holy Master, in the light of the living, and in the dwelling-place of those who rejoice, both my parents, ancestors, and brothers, and your grateful servants; for, even if we have sinned, we have not departed from you, nor have we stretched out our hands to a foreign god, but we have known you, and we have loved you, and we have believed in you, and we worship 63.928 you the one God in Trinity, and in you we pray, and in you we place the hopes of salvation.

Have mercy on us according to your great mercy, and save us into your heavenly and eternal kingdom. Yes, my Lord, Lord, so let these things be done in us who hope in you through your great and insurmountable goodness, and through your ineffable compassion and love for mankind, through the intercessions of our all-glorious, all-hymned, most-blessed, and grace-filled Lady, the most holy Theotokos and ever-virgin Mary, of the heavenly and noetic powers, and of all who have been pleasing to you from the beginning of time. Amen.

συνετέθη ἀναλυθήσεται, ὅπερ ἀναστήσεις ὁ ζωοδότης ἄφθαρτον ἐν τῷ τῆς παλιγγενεσίας καιρῷ· τὸ δὲ πνεῦμά μου εἰς χεῖράς σου παρατίθημι. Ἀνάπαυσον, ἅγιε ∆έσποτα, ἐν φωτὶ ζώντων, καὶ ἐν τῇ κατοικίᾳ τῶν εὐφραινομένων, καὶ τοὺς ἐμοὺς γεννήτορας, προγόνους, καὶ ἀδελφοὺς, σοὺς δὲ οἰκέτας εὐγνώμονας· ὅτι, εἰ καὶ ἡμάρτομεν, ἀλλ' οὐκ ἀπέστημεν ἀπὸ σοῦ, οὐδὲ διεπετάσαμεν χεῖρας ἡμῶν πρὸς Θεὸν ἀλλότριον, ἀλλὰ σὲ ἔγνωμεν, καὶ σὲ ἠγαπήκαμεν, καὶ σοὶ πεπιστεύκαμεν, καὶ σὲ προσκυνοῦ 63.928 μεν τὸν ἕνα ἐν Τριάδι Θεὸν, ἐν σοί τε προσευχόμεθα, καὶ ἐν σοὶ τὰς τῆς σωτηρίας ἀναρτῶμεν ἐλπίδας.

Ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς κατὰ τὸ μέγα σου ἔλεος, καὶ σῶσον εἰς τὴν ἐπουράνιον καὶ αἰώνιόν σου βασιλείαν. Ναὶ δὴ, Κύριέ μου, Κύριε, οὕτω γενέσθω ταῦτα ἐν ἡμῖν τοῖς ἐλπίζουσιν ἐπὶ σὲ διὰ τὴν πολλήν σου καὶ ἀνυπέρβλητον ἀγαθότητα, καὶ διὰ τὴν ἄφατόν σου εὐσπλαγχνίαν καὶ φιλανθρωπίαν, πρεσβείαις τῆς πανενδόξου, πανυμνήτου, ὑπερευλογημένης, καὶ κεχαριτωμένης δεσποίνης ἡμῶν, ὑπεραγίας θεοτόκου καὶ ἀειπαρθένου Μαρίας, τῶν ἐπουρανίων καὶ νοερῶν δυνάμεων, καὶ πάντων τῶν ἀπ' αἰῶνός σοι εὐαρεστησάντων. Ἀμήν.
