St Theophanes the Confessor and Hymnographer, Bishop of Nicea
Troparion — Tone 5
Having attained an angelic state, / you sounded you sounded sounded forth as a golden trumpet of revelation / and nourished the chosen people with your words. / The singing of your hymns gladdens the Church, / for which you struggled, O Theophanes.
Kontakion — Tone 4
Podoben: “Today You have shown forth...” / You dawned on the Church like a second sun, venerable Theophanes, / enlightening her with the beams of your teachings / as a priest of Christ our God.
