Menaion — translated by Isaac Lambertsen

Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶1

Irmos: The children of Abraham in the Persian furnace, afire with love of piety more than with the flame, cried out: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!

¶2

Thou didst truly cleave unto Thy heavenly Lover with love and boldness, O all-praised one, crying out in thanksgiving: Blessed art Thou in the temple of the glory, O Lord! Twice

¶3

Theotokion: Resplendent and adorned with all the virtues as with varied colors, O Mother of God, thou gavest birth unto the Word of the Father in manner past recounting. Blessed art thou among women, O all-immaculate Mistress!

¶4

Full of all manner of virtues, with gladness and joy didst thou pass over from earth to the choirs of heaven, O glorious Matrona, receiving immortality as an inheritance.
