Season of the Glorious Birth of Our Lord: The Circumcision of the Lord – (Maronite Divine Liturgy)

Moses the prophet gave the law of circumcision to the Nation of Israel, and Our Lord Himself came and perfected the mystery of the prophecy.ܡܘܽܫܶܐ ܢܒܺܝܳܐ ܣܳܡ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܆ ܓܙܘܽܪܬܳܐ ܠܥܰܡܳܐ ܕܒܶܝܬ ܐܺܝܣܪܳܐܶܝܠ ܆ ܘܡܳܪܰܢ ܐܶܬܳܐ ܗܘܽ ܒܰܩܢܘܽܡܶܗ ܆ ܘܫܰܡܠܺܝ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܕܰܢܒܺܝܘܽܬܳܐ ܀
All you nations, glorify the Lord who underwent circumcision according to the law. And all peoples, glorify Him who perfected the mystery of the prophecy.ܫܰܒܰܚܘ ܠܡܳܪܝܳܐ ܟܽܠܟܘܽܢ ܥܰܡ̱̈ܡܶܐ ܆ ܕܰܥܠ ܠܰܓܙܘܽܪܬܳܐ ܐܰܝܟ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܆ ܘܫܰܒ̈ܚܳܝܗ̱ܝ ܟܽܠܗ̈ܶܝܢ ܐܶܡ̈ܘܳܬܳܐ ܆ ܕܫܰܡܠܺܝ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܕܰܢܒܺܝܘܽܬܳܐ ܀
Blessed is Christ, who gave the Church the glorious mystery of baptism. Instead of the old laws, truth shines in synagogues. ܒܪܺܝܟ ܡܫܺܝܚܳܐ ܕܝܰܗ̱ܒ ܠܳܗ̇ ܠܥܺܕܬܳܐ ܆ ܪܳܐܙܳܐ ܫܒܺܝܚܳܐ ܕܡܰܥܡܘܽܕܺܝܬܳܐ ܆ ܚܠܳܦ ܢܳܡܘܽܣܳܐ ܕܥܰܬܺܝ̈ܩܳܬܳܐ ܆ ܫܪܳܪܳܐ ܢܳܨܰܚ ܒܰܟ̈ܢܘܽܫܳܬܳܐ ܀

  1. Hello, thank you for the translation. A related short question if I may. How do Maronites greet each other during the Christmas season? I say Merry Christmas, do Maronites say Blessed Season of the Glorious Birth of Our Lord? This would sound so much more specific than Merry Christmas!
