Irmos: Thy Church rejoiceth in Thee, O Christ, crying aloud: Thou art my strength, O Lord, my refuge and my consolation!
The choir of the twelve godly martyrs, having truly arrayed themselves steadfastly against the tyrannical enemy, vanquished them with the weapons of faith; and invested by God with a crown, they have joined the choirs of the angels. With them they ever make entreaty, that those who bless them may be delivered from tribulations, sorrows and everlasting torments.
Sessional hymn, in Tone IV: Spec. Mel.: “Joseph marvelled…”—
Thou didst shine forth piously in deed and word, and in the precious anointing of the priesthood, O divinely wise Pamphilus, martyr of Christ.
Theotokion: He Who dwelleth in the highest made His abode within thee, O all-pure one, in manner surpassing nature; for, receiving flesh from thee, He robed Himself therein.
Ye were like a most reverent harp, strung with confession and sounding forth in hymnody, O assembled martyrs of Christ.
Glory…, Now & ever…: Theotokion—
Hastening to the understanding of your heavenly and honored calling, as victors ye received a crown from the Master.
Joseph marvelled, beholding that which is beyond nature; and, pondering thy seedless conception, O Theotokos, he brought to mind the rain on the fleece, the bush which was not consumed by the fire, and the rod of Aaron which budded forth. And, bearing witness, thy betrothed and protector cried out to the priests: The Virgin giveth birth, yet remaineth virgin even after giving birth!
Stavrotheotokion—
The Virgin and ewe-lamb, beholding on the Cross the Lamb Who was born of her without seed, His side pierced by a spear, was wounded with shafts of grief and cried out, exclaiming amid her pain: “What is this new mystery? How is it that Thou diest Who alone art Lord of life? Wherefore, arise, raising up our fallen forefather!”
