2. in Church Slavonic in civil type;
3. in Russian;
4. in Ukrainian;
5. in Greek.

Every day at the divine services of the Orthodox Church, small fragments of text from the Holy Scriptures are read.
Usually from the New Testament. Each fragment is numbered and called in Slavonic "conception".
At festive services, and especially during Great Lent, texts from the Old Testament are additionally read.
The beginnings are drawn up in such a way that the entire New Testament was read at church services during the year.
The countdown is from the day of Easter, so every year on the same calendar day the readings will be different.
This is explained by the fact that in the church calendar some of the memorable dates are tied to the Julian calendar, and some to Easter.
