You have acquired the grace of the Holy Spirit, / to the God-wise Saint Philaret, / you preached truth and righteousness to people with an enlightened mind, / peace and mercy to the tender hearts / of the suffering You have shown, / as a teacher of the faith and a vigilant guardian / You have preserved the Russian flock with the rod of righteousness. / For this reason, for the sake of Christ God, you have boldness, / pray to grant to the Church confirmation, // and salvation for our souls.
