Εὔγνωστε π(άτ)ερ εὐσθενῆ σῶτερ μόνε·
Ὑπερφυὴς πέλεις γὰρ ὕψους ἀπλέτου·
Σέλας τρίφωτον σοῦ μονώτατον κράτο(ς)· ||
Τριττὸν θυμός μου σφόδρα τηρ(ὼν) ὡς τοβήτ·
Ῥύθμώσον πρὸς σὲ ῥᾶον ὦ παντοκράτόρ˙
Ἀκραιφνὲς οἰκείωσον αἴρων εἰς λία
Τήρησον εὐσύνοπτα τὸν νοῦν ὡς σαφατ
Ἰλὺν καθαίρων ἵν' τέλειος ἐμμένοι
Ὃ τοῦδε θέσαις οὗ πόνημα τ' ἥπετο·
Σοφοῦ τὰ θεία σωστικαῖς ταῖς εὐκτίαις ·:·
