Times and seasons of memorable deeds,/ exploits and labors of the God-bearing fathers,/ Nestore the Wise, writing,/ you were kindled with love to follow in the footsteps of the first ones,/ do not cease with him pray to Christ God, // our souls may be saved.
As this God-bearing Theodosius is a disciple/ and a true imitator of his life,/ the first of his honest relics, a self-witness, was deemed worthy to be,/ even with the others he carried it in a holy manner,/ You also inherited the Kingdom of Heaven, so that we who honor you may also receive it, praying to the Lord.
Oh, holy father, wise mentor and God-loving ascetic Nestor the Chronicler! Stand with boldness before the throne of Eternal Glory, do not forget us sinners and unworthy, aggravated by the storms of passions, and through your unceasing intercession protect our country, yours, and kin yours from all evils and sorrows. Confirm our hearts in the Orthodox faith, teach us to love our fatherland and to remain strong in brotherly love. Guide us on the path of salvation, so that through your prayers, our intercessor, we will enter the eternal Kingdom of glory, praising the Lord and glorifying your intercession forever and ever. Amen.
