Ode VII

Menaion — translated by Isaac Lambertsen

Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶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 gavest no sleep to thine eyelids until thou didst uproot the falsehood of the mindless Eutyches, crying: Blessed art Thou, O Lord God, forever!

¶3

Theotokion: Entangled in the bonds of my transgressions, I have recourse unto thee now, O Mother of God. In the loving-kindness of thy mercy, deliver me, who cry out: Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, O all-pure one!

¶4

Confessing Christ to be one Hypostasis in two Natures, with a twofold activity and will, thou dost now chant: Blessed art Thou, O Lord God, forever!
