¶1

Irmos: O Lord God of our fathers, Who in the beginning founded the earth and established the heavens by Thy word: blessed art Thou forever!

¶2

O wise disciple of Christ, thou drivest grievous ailments and every pang from the souls and bodies of those who have recourse to thy house.

¶3

Theotokion: O Lord God of our fathers, Who madest Thine abode in the Virgin’s womb, and therein restored Adam: Blessed art Thou!

¶4

Thou turnest away the visitations of demons and dost cleanse men of cruel passions by thy compassion, O eye-witness of Christ; wherefore, we bless thee with faith.

¶5

Having cast down the prating of the orators by the simplicity of thy teachings, O wise one, thou proclaimest that God hath appeared in the flesh and dwelt with mortals in His goodness.
