When the keepers trembled in fear of the heavenly beings, who gave good tidings to the women that death for mortals was undone: may this [person], planted together in the likeness of Your death, become a partaker of life; bring [this one] in [with] lamps filled into the [bridal chamber].

The awesome sign of the cross, shining from the east, shall dawn; those who believe in You shall rejoice, and the deniers shall wail; make bright with its light the worshippers of the holy cross, bring [them] in [with] lamps filled into the [bridal chamber].
