[{"type": "TEXT", "value": "On the Sea of Tiberias of old, / the sons of Zebedee, with Nathaniel and Peter, / Thomas and two other disciples, / were in a boat; and having cast their net on the right side as Christ commanded, / they drew in a great draught of fishes. / And Peter, recognizing Him, cast himself forth to come to Him. / This was His third appearance; // and He showed them bread and fish upon burning coals. Theotokion: O Virgin, entreat the Lord Who arose from the tomb on the third day, / in behalf of those who praise and bless thee with love; / for we all have thee as a refuge of salvation and a mediatress before Him, / for we are thy legacy and thy servants, O Theotokos, // and we all look to thee for help. The Tenth Gospel Sticheron Tone 6: Grieving, as was meet, Over parting from Thee, O Christ, / after Thy descent into hades and Thy resurrection from the dead, / Thy disciples returned again to their trade, / to their boats and nets; / yet nowhere did they catch fish. / But Thou, O Savior, showing Thyself to be a Master of all, / didst command them to cast the nets on the right side. / And straightway Thy word became reality, / and there was a great multitude of fishes, / and Thou didst prepare a strange meal on the shore. / Of that which Thy disciples then partook, / do Thou vouchsafe that we now enjoy noetically, // O Lord Who lovest mankind!"}] |
