Ode 1.The choirs of Israel passed dry-shod across the Red Sea and the watery deep; / and beholding the riders and captains of the enemy swallowed by the waters,/ they cried out for joy: // ‘Let us sing unto our God, for He hath been glorified.’
Ode 3. The bow of the mighty hath waxed feeble / and the weak have girded themselves with strength: // therefore is my heart established in the Lord.
Ode 4. I have heard of Thy glorious Dispensation, O Christ our God: / how Thou wast born of the Virgin, / that so Thou mightest deliver from error those who cry aloud to Thee: // Glory to Thy power, O Lord.
Ode 5. Thou hast parted the light from the original chaos, / that Thy works might celebrate Thee in light, O Christ, as their Creator: // do Thou direct our paths in Thy light.
Ode 6. In mine affliction I cried unto the Lord, / the God of my salvation, // and He hearkened unto me.
Ode 7.Of old the Abrahamite Children in Babylon / trampled down the flame of the furnace, / whilst crying out with hymns: // O God of our Fathers, blessed art Thou.
Ode 8. In Babylon the Children, burning with zeal for God / bravely trampled upon the threat of the tyrant and the fire; / thrown into the midst of the flames but refreshed with dew they sang: // ‘O all ye works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord.’
Ode 9. Thy birthgiving was undefiled: / God came forth from thy womb, / and He appeared upon earth wearing flesh / and made His dwelling among men; // therefore we all magnify thee, O Theotokos.
