Machine Text Extractor rendering put through Google.translate:

     Your unchurchism, expressed in the fact that for more than ten years you deliberately did not resort to the Sacrament of Confession and refused to attend diocesan meetings, while avoiding concelebration and even oral communication with our other priests, led you to sectarianism and complete apostasy from the Church.  Despite repeated exhortations to return to the Church, you chose to unite with the New Style Renovationist organization of the OCU, which confirmed your deep internal apostasy.

     Considering your actual stay outside the Church. You are prohibited from serving in the priesthood until you repent. You are prohibited from wearing a cassock and a priestly cross, as well as from performing any actions as a clergyman. If you violate this Decree, then, according to the Church Canons and Rules, you will be deprived of your rank.

     Ruling Bishop of the Odessa Diocese Archbishop of Tauride and Odessa
