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

Afire with the divine love of Christ, O martyr, enduring the hidden instrument as the holy children endured the furnace, thou didst cry out: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord! Twice

¶3

Theotokion: Rejoice, O Theotokos, thou divine and sanctified habitation of the Most High, for through thee hath joy been given to those who cry: Blessed art Thou among women, O most immaculate Mistress!

¶4

O glorious martyr, He Who doth clothe the heaven in clouds illumined thee, who wast naked, devoid of divine vesture, and thou didst sing: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!
