Irmos: Establishing me upon the rock of faith, Thou hast enlarged my mouth against mine enemies, for my spirit doth exult when I chant: There is none holy as our God, and non righteous save Thee, O Lord!
Of the Prophet
Theotokion: Thou alone of all from ages past hast been vouchsafed great things in manner transcending nature; for in thy womb thou didst bear and give flesh unto God Whom all creation cannot contain. Wherefore, we all honor thee as the Theotokos.
Foreseeing the grace which by divine power would be borne over to the gentiles, the prophet was brought down into the abyss of despair, crying out to thee, O Master: Thou art our God, and there is none righteous save Thee, O Lord!
Having spoken piety to the sailors and called thyself the servant of the Most High, thou wast cast into the deep, O glorious prophet, crying out: Thou art our God, and there is none righteous save Thee, O Lord!
Of the Venerable One
Accepting the words of praise now woven by us, O God-bearer, rejoicing thou enjoyest the fruits of thy labors, and criest out: Thou art our God, and there is none righteous save Thee, O Lord!
Hearkening to the words of the Master, thou didst forsake the world and that which is in the world, and didst lead thine offspring to the Lord, O venerable one, crying out: Thou art our God, and there is none righteous save Thee, O Lord!
