ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Ἑλέησον ἡμᾶς ὁ Θεὸς, κατὰ τὸ μέγα ἔλεός σου, δεόμεθά σου, ἐπάκουσον καὶ ἐλέησον.

ΛΑΟΣ: Κύριε ἐλέησον. [3] ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Ἔτι δεόμεθα ὑπὲρ ἀναπαύσεως τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν κεκοιμημένων δούλων του Θεού [.....] καὶ ὑπὲρ τοῦ συγχωρηθῆναι αὐτοῖς παν πλημμέλημα ἑκούσιόν τε καὶ ἀκούσιον. ΛΑΟΣ: Κύριε ἐλέησον. [3] ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Ὅπως Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τάξη τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν ἔνθα οι ∆ίκαιοι ἀναπαύονται, τα ἐλέη τοῦ Θεοῦ, τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν, καὶ ἄφεσιν τῶν αὐτῶν ἀμαρτιῶν, παρὰ Χριστῷ τῷ ἀθανάτω Βασιλεῖ καὶ θεῷ ἡμῶν αἰτησώμεθα. ΛΑΟΣ: Παράσχου Κύριε. ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Τοῦ Κυρίου δεηθῶμεν. ΛΑΟΣ: Κύριε ἐλέησον. ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πνευμάτων καὶ πάσης σαρκός, ὁ τὸν θάνατον καταπατήσας, τὸν δὲ διάβολον καταργήσας, καὶ ζωὴν τω κόσμω σου δωρησάμενος, αὐτὸς, Κύριε, ἀνάπαυσον τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν κεκοιμημένων δούλων σου [.....], ἐν τόπῳ φωτεινῷ, ἐν τόπῳ χλοερῷ, ἐν τόπῳ ἀναψύξεως, ἔνθα ἀπέδρα ὀδύνη, λύπη καὶ στεναγμός. Παν ἀμάρτημα τὸ παρ’ αυτῶν πραχθὲν ἐν λόγῳ, ἤ ἔργω, ἤ διανοία, ὡς ἀγαθὸς καὶ φιλάνθρωπος Θεὸς, συγχώρησον· ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἄνθρωπος, ὅς ζήσεται καὶ οὐχ ἁμαρτήσει· σὺ γὰρ μόνος ἐκτός ἁμαρτίας ὑπάρχεις· ἡ δικαιοσύνη σου, δικαιοσύνη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ ὁ λόγος σου ἀλήθεια. ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Τοῦ Κυρίου δεηθῶμεν. ΛΑΟΣ: Κύριε ἐλέησον. ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Ὅτι σὺ εἶ ἡ ἀνάστασις, ἡ ζωή, καὶ ἡ ἀνάπαυσις, τῶν κεκοιμημένων δούλων σου [.....], Χριστὲ ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, καὶ σοὶ τὴν δόξαν ἀναπέμπομεν, σὺν τῷ ἀνάρχῳ σου Πατρί, καὶ τῷ παναγίῳ καὶ ἀγαθῷ καὶ ζωοποιῷ σου Πνεύματι, νῦν καὶ αεί καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰώνας τῶν αἰώνων. ΛΑΟΣ: Ἀμήν. ΙΕΡΕΥΣ: Αἰωνία σου ἡ μνήμη, ἀξιομακάριστοι καὶ ἀείμνηστοι ἀδελφοί ἡμῶν.

PRIEST: Have mercy upon us, O God, according to Your great love; we pray to You, hear us and have mercy.

PEOPLE: Lord, have mercy. [3] PRIEST: Again we pray for the repose of the soul of the departed servants of God (Names) who have fallen asleep, and for the forgiveness of all their sins, both voluntary and involuntary. PEOPLE: Lord, have mercy. [3] PRIEST: May the Lord God place their souls where the righteous repose. Let us ask for the mercies of God, the kingdom of Heaven, and the forgiveness of their sins from Christ our immortal king and God. PEOPLE: Grant this, O Lord. PRIEST: Let us pray to the Lord. PEOPLE: Lord, have mercy. PRIEST: O God of spirits and of all flesh, You have trampled down death and have abolished the power of the devil, giving life to Your world. Give rest to the souls of Your departed servants (Names) in a place of light, in a place of repose, in a place of refreshment, where there is no pain, sorrow, and suffering. As a good and loving God, forgive every sin they have committed in thought, word or deed, for there is no one who lives and is sinless. You alone are without sin. Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Your word is truth. PRIEST: Let us pray to the Lord. PEOPLE: Lord, have mercy. PRIEST: For You are the resurrection, the life and the repose of Your departed servants (Names), Christ our God, and to You we give glory, with Your eternal Father and Your all-holy, good and life‑giving Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages. PEOPLE: Amen. PRIEST: May your memory be eternal, dear ones, for you are worthy of blessedness and everlasting memory.
