Troparion of the Holy Bishops Tone 4
The sevenfold company of holy Hierarchs,/ Eugene, Vasilios, Ephraim and Etherios,/ Elpidios, Capiton and Agathodoros/ have illumined the Church of Christ by their inspired struggles in contest./ By their intercessions, O Christ our God, have mercy on us all.
Troparion of the Holy Bishops Tone 5
Since You have given us the miracles of Your Holy Hieromartyrs of Cherson as an invincible rampart, / foil the machinations of the ungodly, O Christ our God, / and strengthen the faith of the Orthodox Christians, / for You are good and love mankind.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Οἱ Ἅγιοι Ἱερομάρτυρες Ἦχος δ´. Ταχὺ προκατάλαβε
Ἐπτάριθμος σύλλογος, Ἱεραρχῶν ἱερῶν, ἀγῶσιν ἀθλήσεως, τὴν Ἐκκλησίαν Χριστοῦ, ἐνθέως ἐφαίδρυναν, Εὐγένιος Βασιλεύς τε, σὺν Ἐφραὶμ Αἰθερίῳ, Ἐλπίδιος καὶ Καπίτων, Ἀγαθόδωρος ἅμα. Αὐτῶν Χριστὲ ἱκεσίαις, πάντας ἐλέησον.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Οἱ Ἅγιοι Ἱερομάρτυρες Ἦχος πλ. α´
Τά θαύματα τῶν ἁγίων σου Μαρτύρων, τεῖχος ἀκαταμάχητον ἡμῖν δωρησάμενος, Χριστέ ὁ Θεός. Ταῖς αὐτῶν ἰκεσίαις βουλάς ἐθνῶν διασκέδασον, τῆς βασιλείας τά σκηπτρα κραταίωσον, ὡς μόνος ἀγαθός καί φιλάνθρωπος.
Troparion of St Laurence Tone 1
With hymns and songs let us honour godly-minded Laurence,/ the scion of Megara, adornment of ascetics and protector of the monastery of Salamis./ He finished his course and fought the good fight of virtue and faith./ Intercede for us, blessed Father Laurence, and preserve thy flock by thy prayers.
Troparion of St Deifer Tone 6
Desiring to serve God in monastic solitude,/ thou didst establish thyself at Bodfari, O Father Deifer,/ where attracted by thy piety,/ many were drawn to embrace the life of ascetic poverty./ May thine example be ever before us/ that we lose not our vision of eternal blessedness.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Ὅσιος Παῦλος ὁ Ἁπλὸς Ἦχος πλ. α’. Τὸν συνάναρχον Λόγον
Τῆς ἁπλότητος ὤφθης ἄνθος μυρίπνοον, παμμακάριστε Παῦλε, τῇ καθαρᾷ σου ψυχῇ, καὶ βίωσας ἐπὶ γῆς καθάπερ ἄγγελος, κατὰ πνευμάτων πονηρῶν, ἐξουσίαν ἐκ Θεοῦ, δεξάμενος θεοφόρε, αὐτῶν τῆς λύμης λιταῖς σου, ἡμᾶς ἀτρώτους διαφύλαττε.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Ὅσιος Λαυρέντιος Ἦχος α’. Τῆς ἐρήμου πολίτης
Τῶν Μεγάρων τὸν γόνον, Ἀσκητῶν τὸν ὁμότροπον, καὶ φρουρὸν Μονῆς Σαλαμῖνος, θεοφόρον Λαυρέντιον, τιμήσωμεν προφρόνως ἀδελφοί, ὡς μέτοχον τῆς δόξης τοῦ Χρίστου, ἵνα τούτου ταῖς πρεσβείαις πάσης ὀργῆς, ῥυώμεθα κραυγάζοντες· δόξα τῷ δεδωκότι σοι ἰσχύν, δόξα τῷ σὲ στεφανώσαντι, δόξα τῷ χορηγοῦντι διὰ σοῦ, ἡμῖν Πάτερ τὰ πρόσφορα.

Kontakion of the holy Bishops Tone 2
The radiant day of the hierarchs and pastors in Cherson has dawned! / Let us sing hymns for the feast of those who suffered for the sheep of Christ! / Hieromartyrs, entreat Christ, the chief Shepherd, that He may number us with the sheep on His right hand, / so that we may cry aloud to you: / Rejoice, holy fathers, for you shed your blood for Christ!
Kontakion of the holy Bishops Tone 2 "He Who dwelleth in the highest"
The radiant day of the pastors who were bishops in Cherson/ hath dawned with splendor./ We hymn the feast of those who suffered for the sheep of Christ./ O hieromartyrs, entreat Christ, the chief Shepherd,/ that He honor us with a place with the sheep on His right hand,/ that we may cry aloud to you:// Rejoice, O sacred fathers who shed your blood for Christ!
Kontakion of the holy Bishops Tone 8
As unwaning stars of the Light of minds,/ you have made sleepers in the night of error into sons of Light,/ O Eugene, Capiton, Agathodoros, Vasilios. Etherios, Ephraim and Elpidios, invincible in contest.
Κοντάκιον. Οἱ Ἅγιοι Ἱερομάρτυρες Ἦχος πλ. δ´. Ὡς ἀπαρχάς τῆς φύσεως

Kontakion of St Laurence Tone 4
Thou art the glory of the righteous,/ O blessed and wise Laurence,/ for aflame with love for Christ,/ thou didst consume the passions/ and art now refreshed by the Spirit of refreshment.
Kontakion of St Deifer Tone 2
The tawdry worthlessness of our indiscipline/ contrasts starkly with the heights of thy virtue, O Father Deifer,/ therefore we earnestly entreat thee to pray for us,/ that amending our lives/ we may more worthily worship Christ our God and Saviour.
Κοντάκιον. Ὅσιος Παῦλος ὁ Ἁπλὸς Ἦχος β’. Τοῖς τῶν αἱμάτων σου
Τοῖς ἁπλουστάτοις σου τρόποις κοσμούμενος, τοῦ Ἀντωνίου συνόμιλος γέγονας, καὶ τούτου τὸν βίον μιμούμενος, Παῦλε φωτὸς θείου ἔμπλεως γέγονας, αἰτούμενος πᾶσι θείαν ἔλλαμψιν.
Κοντάκιον. Ὅσιος Λαυρέντιος Ἦχος γ’. Ἡ Παρθένος σήμερον
Ἐκ Μεγάρων Ὅσιε, οἷάπερ φοῖνιξ βλαστήσας, μυστικῶς ἐξήνθησας, ἐν Σαλαμῖνι τῇ νήσῳ· ἔνθα δή, Μονὴν ἐγείρας τῇ Θεοτόκῳ, σκήνωμα, τοῦ Παρακλήτου λαμπρὸν ἐδείχθης, τῇ ὁσίᾳ σου ἀσκήσει, Χριστοῦ θεράπον, Πάτερ Λαυρέντιε.
