When Thou, the Deathless Life, didst go down to death, then didst Thou slay hell by the lightning flash of Thy Divinity. And when Thou didst raise the dead from the lower world, all the powers of Heaven cried aloud: Christ our God, Giver of Life, glory to Thee.
from the Troparion, Sunday of the Myrrhbearers
May God slay all vestiges of death and hell in us, by the same power that raised Christ from the dead. Christ is risen!
