Irmos: Having traversed the depths of the Red Sea with dryshod feet, Israel of old vanquished the might of Amalek in the wilderness by Moses’ arms stretched out in the form of the Cross.
Illumined by divine effulgence, O venerable one, thou becamest radiant. Enlighten those who with faith celebrate thy splendid repose, driving away the gloom of the passions.
Theotokion: Thou didst conceive the Son of God without seed, through the divine Spirit, at the will of the Father, and thou gavest birth in the flesh to Him Who was begotten of the Father without mother, and was born of thee without father for our sake.
Thou wast shown to be full of light through thy radiant deeds, illumining those who are in the night of evils, and guiding them to the light of heaven by the Spirit, O sacred father Nicetas.
Thou shinest forth gifts of miracles upon those who ever approach thy sacred shrine, O all-blessed one, receiving them from God as a reward for thy labors and pangs.
