Preachers of piety and depictors of the Resurrection of the Dead,/ Pillars of the seven-day Church,/ let us praise the all-blessed youths with songs:/ for many years of incorruptibility, like from sleep having risen, // proclaimed to everyone the rising of the dead.
Having glorified Thy holy land on earth/ before Thy second and terrible coming, O Christ,/ by the glorious rising of the youths/ showed Thou the Resurrection to those who did not know it,/ incorruptible garments and having revealed the body,/ and you assured the king that the cry was truly a rising of the dead.
Oh, most wonderful holy seventh youth, praise to the city of Ephesus and all the hope of the whole universe! Look from the heights of Heavenly glory at us, who honor your memory with love, and especially at the Christian infants, entrusted to your intercession by their parents. Bring down upon her the blessing of Christ God, O Lord: leave the children to come to Me. Heal those who are sick, comfort those who mourn, keep their hearts pure, fill them with meekness, and in the soil of their hearts plant and strengthen the grain of the confession of God, even with strength so that they may increase in strength. And all of us, the holy icons of yours who stand before you, who kiss your might with faith and pray warmly to you, vouchsafe to enhance the Kingdom of Heaven and glorify the silent voices of joy there magnificent Name of the Most Holy Trinity, Father and Son and Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
