τοῦ ἀντικειμένου, καὶ ὑψηλότερον αὐτὸν
ποίησον τῶν πολυπλόκων παγίδων, ὧν εἰς σκάνδαλον
ἥπλωσεν ὁ πονηρὸς πάντων τῶν θελόντων
σωθῆναι. ἀφάνισον, παντοδύναμε, πᾶσαν τὴν
δύναμιν τοῦ ἀπατεῶνος ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ δούλου
σου, καὶ δὸς αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν πατεῖν τὴν
ὀλεθροτόκον κάραν τοῦ πολεμίου τῶν ἡμετέρων
ψυχῶν. κατάπεμψον ἐξ ὕψους τὴν χάριν τοῦ
Ἁγίου σου Πνεύματος. καὶ ἐνίσχυσον αὐτὸν
πρὸς τὰς ἀοράτους παρατάξεις, ἵνα τὸν τῆς νίκης
ἀξιωθῇ παρὰ σοῦ στέφανον δέξασθαι, καὶ δοξασθῇ
ἐν αὐτῷ τὸ ὄνομά σου, τοῦ Πατρός, καὶ
τοῦ Υἱοῦ, καὶ τοῦ Ἁγίου Πνεύματος, ὅτι σοὶ
πρέπει δόξα καὶ αἴνεσις εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας. ἀμήν.
Ταῦτα εὐξάμενος, καὶ τὸν Ἰωάσαφ πατρικῶς
1 περιπτυξάμενος, καὶ ἀσπασμὸν αὐτῷ δοὺς ἐν
2 φιλήματι ἁγίῳ, τῷ τύπῳ τε τοῦ σταυροῦ ἑαυτὸν
3 ἐπισφραγισάμενος, καὶ τοὺς πόδας ἐξάρας, καὶ
4 λίαν περιχαρὴς γενόμενος, ὥσπερ τινῶν ἐπιδημησάντων
5 φίλων, πρὸς τὴν μακαρίαν ἀπῆλθε
πορείαν, πρὸς τὴν ἐκεῖθεν διελθὼν γεροδοσίαν,
πρεσβύτης ὢν καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν τῶν τοῦ πνεύματος.
