The ranks of the
prophets
Sing on that mountain:
“Behold him, God, the Ancient of Days,
Becoming a child, taking a body.” (Gregory of Narek, Alternate,
21-24, in The Festal Works of St. Gregory of Narek: Annotated Translation of
the Odes, Litanies, and Encomia [trans. Abraham Terian; Collegeville,
Minn.: Pueblo Book, 2016], 51)
We who are gathered together (to worship you, Ancient (of
Days), the Existent,
lift up our petitions with the sound of festal celebration.
With your rewarding glory come to us who are gathered together, you who are close
to everyone,
because of the mediation of your mother, the Virgin
who took away the anguish of the foremother Eve (Gregory of Narek, Litany of
St. John the Baptist Recited by Narek, 105-109, in ibid., 67-68)
