The Troparion

Behold the Bridegroom comes in the midst of the night, and blessed is the servant, whom He shall find vigilant; again, unworthy is the one whom He shall find heedless. Beware, therefore, O my soul, that sleep does not overtake you, lest you be given up to death, and be shut out from the Kingdom. Therefore, rouse yourself up and cry out: ‘Holy, Holy, Holy are You, our God, through the Theotokos, have mercy on us.’

Translated by Father Yeorgios L. Papadeas
