Irmos: O Lord, Bestower of light and Creator of the ages: guide us in the light of Thy commandments, for we know none other God than Thee.
With the power of thy words didst thou denounce the disease of the ungodly, and with the bonds of divine love didst thou bind thy flock; and thou preservest it unharmed through hope and faith.
Theotokion: O pure one, we all have thee as an intercessor, a mighty foundation of hope, support, shelter and rampart, and a bridge leading to the kingdom of heaven.
Going without food, with abstinence thou didst nourish thy soul, possessing the bread of pure prayer, divine doctrine and exalted humility.
As a father thou didst weave the robe of the Church, O wise one, and therein Christ arrayed thee with honor for the sake of thy faith; and thou didst shine forth in the splendor of Orthodox teaching.
