Irmos: The youths of old showed themselves to be rhetors with the greatest love of wisdom; for, theologizing with their lips, they chanted from the depths of their God-pleasing souls: O most divine God of our fathers, blessed art Thou!
Thou didst acquire life-bearing mortality by setting aside pleasures; wherefore, thou wast vouchsafed to resurrect the dead, O blessed Benedict, crying out: O all-divine God of our fathers, blessed art Thou!
Theotokion: Heal thou the passions of my soul, O Virgin who ineffably conceived the Wellspring of dispassion, and grant me a shower of compunction to bring me consolation there, O holy Theotokos.
Astonishing a multitude of the faithful, thou didst do as did the great Elijah, growing a garden for monks by thy venerable labors, and it remaineth ever hedged round about by thy supplications, O blessed one.
The mindless ones who sought to murder thee with evil sorcery were put to shame, O father Benedict, rebuked by the foreknowledge in thee, for thou wast preserved by the hand of Almighty God.
