Irmos: You poured out dew from the flames of the saints, and you burned the righteous sacrifice with water; Do everything, Christ, just as you want. We extol You forever.

Do everything, O Christ, just as you want - for You do everything, Christ, whatever you want (by Your own will).

+ And you burned the righteous sacrifice with water. Irmos sings not only that miracle of the Lord, which always lies at the basis of the 8th canto - the flow of dew from the flame of a red-hot furnace - but also another, when, through the prayer of the prophet Elijah, the Lord brought down fire from heaven, consuming a sacrifice abundantly poured with water (1 Kings 18:30-38).

Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.

Why shouldn’t the Imam cry when I think about death when I see my brother lying in the grave, inglorious and ugly? What do I lose and what do I hope for? Just grant me, Lord, before the end, repentance. (twice)

Slava:

I believe that you will come to judge the living and the dead, and everyone will stand in their rank, old and young, rulers and princes, virgins and priestesses; where will I find myself? For this reason I cry: grant me, Lord, repentance before the end.

And now:

Most Pure Mother of God, accept my unworthy prayer and save me from impudent death, and grant me repentance before the end.

When - when. Give it - give it. Priests are priests.
