Tone 4

We are unable, who most ardently honour thee,

O Prophet and Forerunner of the showing of Christ,

To praise thee as it is meet:

For the womb that was barren and thy fathers dumbness,

Were loosed by thy glorious and noble nativity,

And the incarnation of the Son of God,

Was proclaimed unto the world.
