Irmos: The bow of the mighty is become weak, and the strengthless have girded themselves with power; wherefore, my heart is established in the Lord.
Thou didst shepherd the reason-endowed sheep and wast slaughtered beforehand as a lamb among sheep, emulating the Chief Shepherd of all and Lamb of God.
Theotokion: Rejoice, O Mother who knewest not wedlock, who didst contain the Word of God within thy womb, and gavest birth to Him Who is both God and man, incarnate.
With divine inspiration thou gavest noetic milk to drink unto those whom thou didst shepherd; and, rejoicing, thou didst drain the cup of Christ’s witness.
Leading assemblies of athletes, thou didst accept martyrdom for piety, glorifying the one God: the Father, with the Son and the divine Spirit.
