For the sake of Your people and livestock, the poor, the gloomy air and the dark mist will disappear, and the rays of the sun will shine, O All-Bounteous Lord, that we may not die untimely, we pray to You, Hear soon and have mercy.
Save us, Lord, from the gloomy, evil-dissolved air, from timeless wetness and dark mist, may our days not disappear in vanity, and may our summers be filled with sighs, but remember Thy covenant, like unto Noah, and make with us according to Thy mercy, with a contrite heart we pray to Thee, hear and have mercy.
In our sorrow and sorrow we cry to You, our Lord God, with emotion: may our prayer come to You, may our life come out of decay, and may it not perish untimely, Graciously hear the voice of Your poor people, and have mercy on humanity.
Not on the arc, but as a sign of the covenant You set the clouds, Lord, but we look at Your bounties, and we seek to attract Your mercy, to You, rich in mercy and immeasurable in With generosity, with a contrite heart, we pray: give us a measured and fruitful bucket of well-dissolved air, and soon, as if Generous, hear and have mercy.

Oh, most praiseworthy and wonderful prophet of God Elijah, who shone on earth with your equal life as the angels, with your most ardent zeal for the Lord God Almighty, and also with glorious signs and wonders, out of God’s extreme goodwill towards you, naturally caught up in a fiery chariot with your flesh to Heaven, being able to converse with the Savior of the world who was transfigured on Tabor, and now in paradise dwell in their villages unceasingly and stand before the Throne of the Heavenly King! Hear us, sinners and useless ones (names), at this hour standing before your holy icon and diligently resorting to your intercession. Pray for us, the Lover of Mankind, that He may give us the spirit of repentance and contrition for our sins and with His all-powerful grace, may He help us leave the paths of wickedness and succeed in everything de blaze; may he strengthen us in the fight against our passions and lusts; May he implant in our hearts the spirit of humility and meekness, the spirit of brotherly love and kindness, the spirit of patience and chastity, the spirit of zeal for the glory of God and the salvation of our neighbors. With your prayers, prophet, abolish the evil customs of the world, and especially the destructive and corrupting spirit of this age, infecting the Christian race with disrespect for the Divine Orthodoxy faith, to the charter of the Holy Church and to the commandments of the Lord, disrespect for parents and authorities, and casting people into the abyss of wickedness, corruption and destruction. Turn away from us, most wonderfully prophesied, by your intercession the righteous wrath of God and deliver all the cities and towns of our Fatherland from rainlessness and famine, from terrible storms and earthquakes, from deadly ulcers and diseases, from the invasion of enemies and internecine warfare. Strengthen with your prayers, most glorious, those who hold our power in the great and arduous labor of government, prosper them in all their good deeds and undertakings for the establishment of peace and truth in the country ours. Help the Christ-loving army in battles with our enemies. Ask, prophet of God, from the Lord for our shepherds holy zeal for God, heartfelt concern for the salvation of the flock, wisdom in teaching and government, piety and strength in temptations, Ask the judges for impartiality and selflessness, righteousness and compassion for the offended, for all those in authority to take care of their subordinates, mercy and justice, for the subordinates to submit humility and obedience to the authorities and diligent performance of one's duties; so that having lived in peace and piety in this world, we will be worthy to partake of eternal blessings in the Kingdom of the Lord and our Savior Jesus Christ, to whom honor and worship are due His beginningless Father and the Most Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.
