O Death, where is thy sting?
O Hell, where is thy victory?

Christ is risen
and the demons have fallen.
Christ is risen
and the angels rejoice.
Christ is risen
and life exults.
Christ is risen
and there is none
dead in the tomb.

For Christ is raised
from the dead,
and become the first fruits
of them that slept.

To Him be glory and dominion
from all ages to all ages.
Amen.

                                St. John Chrysostom:
                                Homily for Easter Day

Resurrexi, et adhuc tecum sum, alleluia:
posuisti super me manum tuam, alleluia:
mirabilis facta est scientia tua,
alleluia, alleluia.

I am risen, and I am always with you, alleluia;
you have placed your hand upon me, alleluia;
your wisdom has been shown to be most wonderful,
alleluia, alleluia.
