Irmos: This is our God, Who became incarnate of the Virgin and hath deified our nature! And, hymning Him, we cry aloud: Glory to Thy power, O Lord!
A sign of the universal resurrection on the last day do we now see in Joppa: the apostle commandeth, and a dead woman obtaineth life again, edifying all in virtue. And falling down before her, we cry aloud: O blessed Tabitha, pray thou that we all be saved!
Theotokion: The Archangel Gabriel made announcement to thee, O Virgin, crying out that thy Son had cast down death and arisen as God, bestowing deliverance upon His people, who fervently cry out to thee : O Mistress, our hope, pray thou that we all be saved!
Irmos: Seated in glory upon the throne of the Godhead, Jesus most divine hath come on a light cloud, and with His incorrupt arm hath saved those who cry: Glory to Thy power, O Christ!
By the power of the resurrected Savior at the sound of Peter’s voice thou wast roused from the sleep of death, that thou mightest again dwell in righteousness according to the commandments of the merciful Savior. Him do thou beseech, O blessed Tabitha, that we all be saved.
Theotokion: Of old, the sacred prophet called thee the divine mountain of God greatly overshadowed by the virtues, O all-pure Virgin, from whom the Savior and Word appeared for the restoration and enlightenment of our souls.
The mystery of death merely touched thee, O blessed Tabitha, for the Savior, through the voice of His disciple, commanded thee to rise from the dead, that all mortals might know that the goings out and the comings in of our life are in the right hand of God. Him do thou entreat, that we all be saved.
The martyrs of the Lord, made steadfast by their valiant resolve and the perfect wisdom of Orthodoxy, finished the contest of martyrdom and have driven away the darkness of heresy.
He who did not profess that the Word is consubstantial with the Father and was mindlessly wroth against you, O martyrs, was strangled with the cords of your sacred struggles and by the grace of God was drowned in the torrents of your blood.
With joyous hymnody let the valiant Marcian and Martyrius be praised: the breasts of the Church exuding the milk of Orthodoxy and nurturing the pious.
