Midfeast of Pentecost
Troparion — Tone 8
In the middle of the Feast, O Savior, / fill my thirsting soul with the waters of godliness, as You did cry to all: / If anyone thirst let him come to me and drink! / O Christ God, Fountain of our life, glory to You!
Kontakion — Tone 4
Christ God, the Creator and Master of all / cried to all in the midst of the Feast of the law: / Come and draw the water of immortality! / We fall before You and faithfully cry: / Grant us Your bounties, for You are the Fountain of our life!
Righteous Job the Long-Suffering
Troparion — Tone 1
As an indestructible pillar of courage, / you repulsed the attacks of Belial and remained unmoved in temptation. / Therefore, O wise Job, / the Church praises you as a model of endurance and an example of virtue; / and she is made radiant by your great deeds.
Kontakion — Tone 8
You were true and just, pious, blameless and holy, O glorious servant of God. / You enlightened the world by your perseverance, much-afflicted Job. / Therefore, we all honor and praise your divinely-wise memory.
Venerable Micah, disciple of Venerable Sergius of Radonezh
Troparion — Tone 4
Having taken the Lord's yoke* upon your shoulders, / you followed Christ with your teacher, the venerable Sergius, / with whom you were deemed worthy to behold the Most Holy Theotokos, / and hear her sweet voice promise that she would not depart from that place. / Pray, O venerable Micah, for those who revere your holy memory.
* (Matthew 11:29-30)
Kontakion — Tone 8
Come, assemblies of monastics and choirs of those who fast, / joining together let us praise blessed Micah, / the companion in fasting of venerable Sergius, / with whom he stands before the Holy Trinity / and prays that our souls be saved.

Your holy martyr Barbarus and his companions, O Lord, / through their sufferings have received incorruptible crowns from You, our God. / For having Your strength, they laid low their adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through their intercessions, save our souls

(Podoben: “You sought the heights...”)
You appeared as a bright star announcing Christ with your radiance, / which is repulsive to this world, O Martyr Barbarus; / extinguishing the allure of false gods, / you enlighten the faithful, / always interceding for us all.
Translation of the relics of Saint Savva, first Archbishop of Serbia
Troparion — Tone 4
In truth you were revealed to your flock as a rule of faith, / an image of humility and a teacher of abstinence; / your humility exalted you; / your poverty enriched you. / Hierarch Father Savva, / entreat Christ our God / that our souls may be saved.
