Here is the translation of your text into English:
“Will someone object – you (Christians) cry, repent of your sins, lament your wretched state (misfortune)!? The cry of a Christian is always joy-creating (a child still has tears in their eyes, yet rejoices because a toy that slipped from their hands is being returned), joyful sorrow – these words used by the saints (Christians) describe the state of a Christian who moves from the hell of egotism, self-love, and passions to the Pascha of Transfiguration, Deification. This is a state of feeling ‘already and not yet,’ ‘at home and still on the way home,’ ‘saved and still being saved’… Joy – because everything has already happened, we are at home, we are God’s forever, we are resurrected (if you want, we can say: we are already in the operation room and our salvation (healing) is a matter of time, though a long and painful operation lies ahead, and no less painful rehabilitation). Tears – because we are still in the process of a painful (martyr-like) birth into Eternity, bestowed upon us by the Father!
Blessed are the Christians who have such a Lord – Jesus Christ, who have such a Father, who has adopted them (and the entire created world, about which only Christians-parishioners know for now) by the Holy Spirit, making them akin to His Son! Blessed are the Christians who have such a Comforter, who cares for them (and everyone) at every moment. The Lord loves and cares for all and everything, but only Christians see and feel, know this, and thank for everything, which is the reason for their constant joy. Christians cry (because they even have a commandment: to weep with those who weep, and to rejoice with those who rejoice), but this in no way hinders their constant joy (Joy is the background, the context of life and all the deeds of Christians). Nothing can separate Christians (and ultimately the entire world) from Christ – neither Paradise, nor hell, nor joy, nor sorrow, nor pain, nor sins… – nothing and never, according to the testimony of one Christian who was taken to the third heaven of communion!

The New Testament commandment does not tell what to do, but how to be (to be like God). The first thing we must never forget is that (i.e., to be like God) is not from us, it is God’s Gift (the fruits of the Holy Spirit in us – faith, hope, love, gentleness, peace, patience, self-control…). And only one thing is required of us – to accept this Gift, Grace, having previously expressed a desire to receive it (more precisely, from us the desire and effort to accept, because we accept God by God!). How to be, for example, with ‘joy’? To receive the gift of joy, you need to have ‘a place, a container’ in yourself for this gift. This place is gratitude. Gratitude always points to joy. If I thank, I cannot but rejoice (of course, if I thank sincerely! What is the reason for our joylessness, if there are many gifts, but no joy, on the contrary – despair, despondency (disbelief)? Only because we do not thank! A gift (not given out of duty or necessity, like, for example, a salary; we do not thank for a salary, it is the employer’s obligation) – is a selfless (unconditional) act, a gift evokes joy, pleasure! Pleasure, true joy arises not from using the gift for one’s own (egotistic) purposes, but from COMMUNICATING through GRATITUDE with the GIVER! Joy and pleasure are the result of communication of persons in the context of GENEROSITY and GRATITUDE (giving oneself as a Gift and gratitude, which is expressed in mutual, loving, eucharistic self-giving to the Beloved-Giver). You cannot pay for the Gift, you cannot thank for it, you cannot repay, you cannot un-gift – you can only (if you have accepted the gift) be grateful forever!
Why don’t we rejoice?! Because we do not thank! To thank (to respond to a gift with gratitude) – does not mean to say the word ‘thank you’, and, appropriating, use for oneself (egotistically) what was given (which from now on, since you thanked, rightfully yours) or something done for you! A gift – is always a call to communication in love, gratitude-giving, it is the realm of reciprocity, the field of encounter of unique persons (Divine and created). Whoever starts to thank like this – will see their ingratitude and helplessness by themselves, without God, without Divine Eucharist (from Greek – gratitude) communion of the Holy Spirit, to be grateful!
Thanking – is to give a debt obligation to the one you thank, it is to become a debtor of the one to whom you are grateful (gratitude – is the joyful state of a debtor)! We are all debtors to each other, we are all guilty before each other in everything! This debt, which can never be repaid, ties the gift-giver and the grateful – forever! Do we thank each other like this?! We talk about how to thank properly not so that someone, by thanking like this, becomes grateful by themselves, without God, but on the contrary, by trying and attempting to thank like this, we recognize our own powerlessness and become ungrateful (we fulfill God’s commandments in order to become sinners, not saints! – see above). We recognize that we do not want to thank or rejoice, but we cannot thank because we are inherently ungrateful egotistic beings, nothing-beings (without God, without the grace of the Holy Spirit)!
