Of the All-merciful God and King/ the faithful servant and warrior appeared to John the Wonderworker,/ having suffered manfully for the sake of faith,/ having blessedly passed away,/ seeing the All-Creator Lord in The brightest of heavens./ From God we receive the granting of miracles,/ we help suffering people in all sorts of misfortunes,/ we strengthen warriors in battle,/ from enemies of captivity, wounds and sudden deaths and save us from severe troubles./ Moreover, pray to the Lord Christ, of everlasting memory,/ that He will show us mercy in all circumstances,/ and will not lead us into temptation,// but will save our souls, as the Lover of Mankind.
