Synaxis of All Saints
Troparion — Tone 4
Adorned in the blood of Your Martyrs throughout all the world, / as if clothed in purple and linen, / through them Your Church cries out to You, O Christ God: / “Bestow Your bounties upon Your people, / grant peace to Your habitation, and great mercy to our souls.”
Kontakion — Tone 8
(Original Melody)
As the first fruits of nature offered to the Planter of all creation, O Lord, / the inhabited earth brings the God-bearing Martyrs. / By their supplications, and the intercession of the Theotokos, / preserve Your Church in profound peace, O greatly Merciful One.
Icon of the Mother of God “The Unbreakable Wall”
Troparion — Tone 4
Let us, sinful and humbled, now run earnestly to the Theotokos, / and let us fall down in repentance, crying from the depths of our soul: / "Help us, O Sovereign Lady, and have compassion on us. / Make haste, for we perish from the multitude of our sins. / Do not turn your servants empty away, for we have you as our only hope.
Kontakion — Tone 6
We have no other help, we have no other hope, but you, O Sovereign Lady. / Help us, for in you do we hope, / and of you do we boast, for we are your servants. / Let us not be put to shame.
"Seven Arrows" Icon of the Mother of God
Troparion — Tone 5
Soften our evil hearts, O Theotokos, and repel the attacks of those who hate us, / and loosen all the rigidity of our soul. / For beholding your holy image, / we are filled with compunction by your compassion and loving kindness toward us, / and we kiss your wounds; / for we are terrified by the darts with which we wound you. / O Compassionate Mother, / do not let us perish because of our hardness of heart, / or our neighbor's hardness of heart, / for you are truly the Softener of Evil Hearts.
Kontakion — Tone 2
By your grace, O Sovereign Lady, / soften the hearts of evildoers, / send down benefactors who will preserve them from all evil; / with gratitude and zeal, we pray to you before your revered icons.
Martyr Lucillian and those who suffered with him at Byzantium
Troparion — Tone 1
By your faith, you shone like a radiant star in the dark night of error; / you fought the good fight and slew the crafty enemy, O Lucillian. / Together with venerable Paula and the four martyred children / entreat Christ our God to save our souls.
Kontakion — Tone 2
You attained the dignity of the martyrs of Christ / through the torments that you courageously endured, O Lucillian. / Together with Paula and the four martyred children, / you sing to the Creator: / “Like sheep we are slaughtered for love of You, O Savior.”
Hieromartyr Lucian, Bishop of Beauvais, and those with him in France
Troparion — Tone 4
Your holy martyrs 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!
Saint Kevin of Glendalough
Troparion — Tone 8
In you, O Father, was preserved with exactness what was according to the image; / for you took up the Cross and followed Christ. / By so doing, you taught us to disregard the flesh, for it passes away; / but to care for the soul, since it is immortal. / Therefore, O Venerable Kevin, your spirit rejoices with the Angels.
Kontakion — Tone 2
(Podoben: “You sought the heights...”)
Having divinely armed yourself with purity of soul / and firmly grasping unceasing prayer as a spear, you have slain the armies of the demons. / Therefore, we beseech you, O Father Kevin: / “Always intercede for those who honor you.”
