Apolytikion for Pentecost - Trinity Sunday
Εύλογητός εἶ Χριστὲ ὁ Θεος ἡμῶν ὁ πανσόφους τοὺς ἁλιεῖς ἁναδείξας καταπέμψας αὐτοῖς τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον καὶ δι᾽ αὐτῶν τῆν οἰκουμένην σαγηνεύσας φιλάνθρωπε δόξα Σοι.

Apolytikion of the Church
ΑΠΟΛΥΤΙΚΙΟΝ – ΑΓΙΟΥ ΝΙΚΟΛΑΟΥ

Κανόνα πίστεως και εικόνα πραότητος,
Εγκρατείας Διδάσκαλον, ανέδειξε σε την ποίμνη σου,
Η των πραγμάτων αλήθεια δια τούτο εκτήσω τη ταπεινώσει τα υψηλά,
Την πτωχεία τα πλούσια.
Πάτερ Ιεράρχα Νικόλαε, πρέσβευε Χριστώ τω Θεω
Σωθήναι τας ψυχάς ημών.


APOLYTIKION OF ST. NICHOLAS

An example of the Faith and a life of humility, as a teacher of abstinence you did inspire and lead your flock and through your truthfulness of your deeds were exalted by greatness through your humility uplifting all and by poverty gaining wealth. Father and hierarch Nicholas intercede with Christ our God that our souls be saved.

When the Most High came down and confounded tongues of men (Babel), He divided the Nations. When He dispensed the Tongues of Fire, He called all to unity, and with one voice we glorify the Most Holy Spirit. - Translation by Narthex Press
