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

Splendidly enriched by God with the grace of healings and miracles, O wise martyr, thou healest those who cry: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!

¶3

Theotokion: Rejoice, thou who alone gavest birth to the Joy of men! Rejoice, O heaven and throne of the cherubim, all-glorious palace of Him Who reigneth for all ages, O most immaculate Mistress!

¶4

Placing all thy care in the heavens, O right glorious one, thou didst disdain the tortures inflicted upon thee, crying out: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!

¶5

With the fire of thy blood thou didst consume all the wicked tinder of ungodliness, O glorious athlete; and with the dew of thy miracles thou bedewest those who are in the burning heat of evils, crying out, O right glorious one: Blessed art Thou in the temple of Thy glory, O Lord!
