Irmos: Thou art my strength, O Lord, Thou art my power; Thou art my God, Thou art my joy, Who, without leaving the bosom of the Father, hast visited our lowliness. Wherefore, with the Prophet Habbakuk I cry unto Thee: Glory to Thy power, O Thou Who lovest mankind!
Accounted worthy of divine illumination, O blessed Nicephorus, thou didst receive a godly life and dost now illumine splendidly with divine light those who keep thy memory and cry out with faith, O divinely wise one: Glory to Thy power, O Thou Who lovest mankind!
Theotokion: O all-pure one, He Who within thee is wholly united to mankind doth renew all of mankind, without leaving the bosom of the Father; for, deigning to dwell in thy womb, in the richness of His loving-kindness He voluntarily impoverished Himself, enriching the world with divinity.
Having joined the martyrs of Christ, thou shinest forth; for thou didst destroy the falsehood of polytheism, thy head being severed, and with the torrents of thy blood didst drown the deception of idolatry, crying out to the Master: Glory to Thy power, O Thou Who lovest mankind!
Sapricius, who did not keep Thy laws, O Savior, is stripped of Thy divine grace; and, going over to Thine enemies, the wretch is deprived of the glory of Thy martyrs. Wherefore, marvelling at Thy just providence, we cry out: Glory to Thy power, O Thou Who lovest mankind!
Triadicon: The unoriginate Father, the Author of all, is Light. The Word is Light. The Holy Spirit is Light. The three-Sunned Godhead, which shineth forth ineffably from the Father, as from a wellspring, from before all the ages, is known in one Essence, Power and Glory.
