                               CEL:  Let Your ears be attentive /
                                      to the voice of my supplications.
                                      If You, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
                                      Lord, who could stand?

                               ALL:  But there is forgiveness with You, / I wait for the Lord.

                               CEL:  In His word I hope, / my soul waits for the Lord
                                      more than watchmen for the morning.

                               ALL:  More than watchmen for the morning,
                                      O Israel, hope in the Lord.

                               CEL:  For with the Lord there is mercy,
                                      and with Him is plenteous redemption.

                               ALL:  And He will redeem Israel / from all his iniquities.

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

                               ALL:  From the beginning is now, always,
                                      and forever. Amen.

                               CEL:  O Lord, let Your name be blessed,
                                      for You raise the dead from their tombs.

                               (After the Psalms, priest blesses the incense)

                               CEL:  Lord, our God! When the sweet fragrance of Your love /
                               wafts  over  us  /  and  when  our  souls  are  enlightened  /  with  the
                               knowledge of Your truth, may we be found worthy / to receive
                               Your beloved Son / as He appears from the heaven. May we also
                               glorify  You  /  and  praise  You  unceasingly  in  Your  Church,
                               crowned like a spouse / with every goodness and grace. For You
                               are the Lord / and creator of all forever and ever.

                               ALL:  Amen.
