Ode VII

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

Gazing with faith upon thee who art adorned with divinely given beauties, O martyr, in hymnody we splendidly cry out to thy Bridegroom: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!

¶3

Theotokion: He Who sitteth upon an all-exalted throne hath rested upon thee, finding thee to be a throne fit for God on earth, O Virgin. Blessed art Thou among women, O all-immaculate Mistress!

¶4

Rejoicing now with the virgins bearing lamps, O martyr, thou hast now entered into the heavenly bridal-chamber with Christ, crying: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!
