O Holy Apostles, intercede to our merciful God, that He may grant our souls forgiveness of sins.
Kontakion in the First Tone
The marvellous return of thine all-holy relics is now for us the cause of a feast bright and joyous, O all-famed Bartholomew, thou Apostle of God the Lord. Paying homage to thy feast, we piously honour thee, the lamp whose light doth never dim; and we worship and magnify Christ our God.
