Your holy martyr, Myron, O Lord,
through his suffering has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God.
For having Your strength, he laid low his adversaries,
and shattered the powerless boldness of demons.
Through his intercessions, save our souls!

From childhood you longed for Christ, all-glorious one,
keeping His divine commandments and running to Him with all your being, all-honored Myron.
Now you zealously pray with the angels,
asking remission of sins
for those who celebrate your memory.
