At the Aposticha, these stichera, in Tone IV —
Menaion — translated by Isaac Lambertsen
Through attentiveness, prayer and the stillness of the wilderness thou didst obtain victory over the passions and didst put legions of the demons to shame, O all-blessed father; and thou hast gladdened the angels, with whom thou hast the boldness before the Lord to pray for our souls.
Thou didst live on the earth like an angel, O venerable father, mortifying thy flesh through asceticism and vigils; and occupying thyself continually with the thought of death, thou didst attain the perfect measure of dispassion and wast enriched with the gifts of the Spirit. Wherefore, thou hast received from God the grace to pray for our souls.
Now & ever…: Theotokion —
Troparion of the venerable one, in Tone VIII —
Stichos: Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.
Stichos: Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord; in His commandments shall he greatly delight.
Rejoicing in the expectation of good things to come, thou didst joyfully tread the narrow and difficult path, wandering in the groves of the wilderness and abiding in the mountains; wherefore, thou now delightest in the beauty of paradise, O venerable father. Intercede for us, that we also be not deprived thereof, praying to Christ in behalf of our souls.
Glory…, in Tone VIII —
We honor thee, O Germanus our father, as the instructor of a multitude of monks, for through thee have we come to know how to tread the straight path. Blessed art thou who, having labored for Christ, didst set at naught the power of the enemy, O companion of the venerable Zosimas and Sabbatius. With them pray unto the Lord, that our souls find mercy.
O unwedded Virgin who ineffably conceived God in the flesh, Mother of God Most High: accept the entreaties of thy servants, O most immaculate one, granting unto all cleansing of transgressions; and, accepting now our supplications, pray thou that we all be saved.
Afire with spiritual desire from thy youth, O venerable Germanus, thou didst follow the narrow path of life unto Christ, and, having made thine abode on a desert island of the sea, as in a calm harbor, thou didst dwell thereon for many years in asceticism; and there thou didst have as thy companions the blessed fathers Zosimas and Sabbatius. With them entreat Christ God in behalf of us who honor thy holy memory with love. Twice
And “Virgin Theotokos, rejoice!…”, once.
