Irmos: From night we send up a song to You: send down Your mercy on us, O Lord, for You are our God, and You know no other.
Merciful Lord, hear the prayer of Your servants who pray to You.
Out of the night of my evil deeds, out of the darkness of fierce sin for the sake of despondency, psalmically, light to the Giver, O God, my God, to You in the morning and to enlighten my soul, I pray, incline your ear Yours to my prayer.
And having left the heights of nobility and gold-girts, nature deigned to live in the desert, for the whole world is overwhelming, and we desire only God.
Reverend Fathers Simeon and Savvo, pray to God for us.
Run away from sin and be touched by tears, but groan with repentance, honor us with your prayers, so as to avoid future illness, when a tear is not accepted and there will be groaning offensively.
Glory: It is not to us, Lord, it is not to us that the cup of Thy wrath has been poured out, for we, Thy people of Christ's name, even though we have sinned, have not served another God, by the prayers of the saints Yours.
And now: By what gift will I bring You thanks, for having already enjoyed Your gifts and Your immeasurable goodness? Moreover, I glorify, sing songs and magnify Your ineffable mercy towards me.
