¶1

Irmos, Tone 4:

¶2

Having traversed the depths of the Red Sea with dryshod feet, / Israel of old vanquished the might of Amalek in the wilderness // by Moses' arms stretched out in the form of the Cross.

¶3

O merciful Lord, hearken to the supplication of Thy servants, who pray unto Thee.

¶4

O Master Who dost ever console the souls and bodies of men with the oil of compassion, and preservest the faithful with oil: Do Thou Thyself now have pity on those who approach Thee with oil.

¶5

O merciful Lord, hearken to the supplication of Thy servants, who pray unto Thee.

¶6

O Master, the whole earth is full of Thy mercy; wherefore, we who are anointed today with thy divine and precious oil beseech Thee with faith, that we be given Thy mercy which is past understanding.

¶7

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

¶8

O Thou Who mercifully commanded Thine apostles to perform Thy sacred anointing upon Thine ailing servants, by their entreaties have mercy upon all with Thy seal.

¶9

Both now and ever, and unto the unto the ages of ages. Amen.

¶10

O pure one who gavest birth to the only Abyss of peace: By thy supplications unto God do thou ever deliver Thy servants from infirmities and tribulations, that they may unceasingly magnify thee.
