Irmos: Once, in Babylon, the youths who had come forth from Judæa trod down the flame of the furnace with their faith in the Trinity, chanting: O God of our fathers, blessed art Thou!
Looking toward God Who is able to save, with uprightness of mind thou didst endure the pangs of thy valiant body, O Hermias, chanting: O God of our fathers, blessed art Thou!
Theotokion: Thou wast adorned with beauty, O Virgin, having given birth to the comely Christ Who assumed our form and hath led unto life all those who have been broken down. Wherefore, with faith we ever glorify thee in hymns.
With the sprinkling of thy blood thou didst extinguish the fire of ungodliness, and, entering the flame, thou wast in nowise consumed, O thou who art most rich, chanting: O God of our fathers, blessed art Thou!
The whole Church calleth thee blessed, beholding thy valiant deeds and the grace of thy miracles, O wise martyr Hermias, and trophies of victory which the Lord gave thee when thou didst struggle splendidly.
