Χριστῷ ἐκ νεότητος ἀκολουθήσας θερμῶς, εὐχαῖς καὶ δεήσεσιν, ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Σαρώφ, ὡς ἄσαρκος ἤσκησας· ὅθεν τοῦ Παρακλήτου, δεδεγμένος τὴν χάριν, ὤφθης τῆς Θεοτόκου, θεοφόρος θεράπων· διὸ σε μακαρίζομεν, Σεραφεὶμ Πάτερ Ὅσιε.

Troparion of ST JULIANA — Tone 4
By your righteous deeds you revealed to the world / An image of the perfect servant of the Lord. / By your fasting, vigil and prayers, / You were inspired in your evangelical life, / Feeding the hungry and caring for the poor, / Nursing the sick and strengthening the weak. / Now you stand at the right hand of the Master, Christ, / O holy Juliana, interceding for our souls.

that our labours may be blessed and our souls may be saved.
Troparion of ST SILVESTER the Pope of Rome — Tone 4
