¶1

Irmos: In the furnace the Hebrew children boldly trod the flame underfoot and transformed the fire into dew, crying out: Blessed art Thou, O Lord God, forever!

¶2

Thou hast joined all the venerable and the choirs of the incorporeal ones, O all-blessed Zoticus, and with them criest out: Blessed art Thou, O Lord God, forever!

¶3

Theotokion: O Theotokos, destroy the might of the barbarians and save thy people; and make steadfast faithful rulers, who cry: Blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, O most pure one!

¶4

By power and grace, O divinely wise one, thou wast shown to be the protector of widows and the weak, and the father of orphans, crying: Blessed art Thou, O Lord God, forever!
