Irmos: He Who of old gathered the waters into one at His divine behest, and parted the sea for the people of Israel, is our God and is most glorious. To Him let us chant, for He hath been glorified!
Together let us celebrate the most holy memory of the holy apostles, and let us hymn them with gladness of soul; for they entreat the all-holy Word to grant us cleansing and mercy.
Theotokion: O merciful Theotokos, boast of the apostles, glory of athletes and confirmation of the faithful: make steadfast my mind, which is troubled by the assaults of the deceiver and darkened by transgressions, I pray.
Dispelling the putrefaction of the madness of polytheism with the salt of the divine Word, O glorious ones, ye rendered healthy all souls which fell prey to folly of old, and have presented them, saved, to the Creator of all. Wherefore, ye are glorified.
Let the glorious Herodion, Rufus and Phlegon, Agabus, Asyncritus and Hermes be blessed, the wise apostles and divine heralds who were close friends of our Deliverer.
