Paraclesi, Saint George, who wears nails

Priest: Blessed be God our God at all times, now and at all times, and forever and ever

Believers: Amen!

The applicant recites (Psalm 142)

O Lord, listen to my prayer and give ear to my request with your truth. Answer me with your justice and do not enter into judgment with your servant, for not every living person will be pure before you. For the enemy has persecuted my soul, and has afflicted my life on earth, and has made me sit in darkness as one that has been dead for ages, and has afflicted my spirit, and my heart is troubled within me. I have remembered the days of old, and have rejoiced in all your works, and meditated on the works of your hands. I extended my hands to you and my soul to you like a land that does not rain. Hurry and answer me, O Lord, for my spirit is exhausted. Do not turn your face from me, so that I become like those falling into the pit. Make me listen to your mercy in the morning, for I have put my trust in you. Show me, O Lord, the way in which I should walk, for to you I have lifted up my soul. Save me from my enemies, O Lord, for I have taken refuge in you. Teach me. To do your will, for you are my God. Your good Spirit guides me in a right land. For the sake of your name, O Lord, you revive me. With your justice, you bring my soul out of sorrow, and with your mercy, you uproot my enemies and destroy all those who grieve my soul, because I am your servant.

Then the choir sings the fourth tune

God the Lord has appeared to us. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

He repeats it after each of the following verses:

  • Confess to the Lord and call on His holy name.
  • All the nations surrounded me, and in the name of the Lord I defeated them.
  • By the Lord this was, and it is wondrous in our eyes.

Troparion of Saint George
(Oh the fourth tune - Weight, O You who rose on the cross)

Let us all honor, with hymns, the soldier of Christ, the brave, true fighter for the Savior, and the most skillful doctor of diseases, crying out to him: Save us, through your intercession, from the present and unbearable distress, so that we may praise you always, as a kind and benefactor, O George.

Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

Now and at all times and forever and ever - Amen

O Mother of God, we are not silent in speaking of your great deeds, for we are unworthy, because if you did not stand up as our intercessor, who would have saved us from such adversities and tribulations, or who has kept us free until now, we would not have turned away from you, O Lady, because you always save your servants from all kinds of adversities. .

Psalm 50

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your great mercy, and according to your great compassion, blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my iniquity, and my sin is always before me. Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you may be true in your words and prevail in your judgment. Behold, I was conceived in iniquities and in sins. My mother bore me, because you loved the truth and made clear to me the secrets and secrets of your wisdom. You sprinkle me with hyssop and I will be clean. You wash me and I will be whiter than snow. You make me hear joy and gladness and make my afflicted bones rejoice. Turn your face from my sins and blot out all my transgressions. Create in me, O God, a clean heart and renew a pure spirit within me. Do not cast me from before your face, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. Grant me the joy of your salvation and uphold me with the spirit of my government. I will teach the unrighteous your ways and the unbelievers will return to you. Deliver me from bloodshed, O God, God of my salvation, and my tongue will rejoice in your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise. For if you had chosen the sacrifice, you would have Now I used to give, but you do not delight in burnt offerings. Sacrifice to God is a contrite spirit. A humble and humble heart will not be despised by God. Reconcile, O Lord, through your path to Zion, and build the walls of Jerusalem. Then you will delight in a just sacrifice, an offering and burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.

BelieversAnd for your soul too.

The priestAn honorable chapter from the Gospel of Saint John the Evangelist and pure disciple.

Believers: Glory to you, Lord, glory to you.

The priestLet us listen (John 15:17-27 and 16:1-2)

    The Lord said to his disciples: Hereby I command you to love one another. If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own, but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you. Remember the words that I said to you: The servant is not greater than his master. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. And if they kept my words, they will keep yours also. But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake, because they did not know him who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sinned, but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which no other had done, they would not have sinned. But now they have seen and hated me and my Father. But this was to fulfill the word that was written in their law, that they hated me without a cause. And when the Comforter comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness of me, and you will also bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning. I have told you this so that you do not doubt, for they will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think that he is offering worship to God.

BelieversGlory be to you, Lord, glory be to you.
