Translation of the relics of Blessed James of Borovichi, Wonderworker of Novgorod - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 1

Enlightened by Divine Grace, / after death you grant healing to those who come to you, most wise James, / and now we honor the transfer of your precious relics, rejoicing in both soul and body. / Therefore, we all cry: / “Glory to Him Who gave you strength. / Glory to Him Who crowned you. / Glory to Him Who, through you, grants healing to all.”

Kontakion — Tone 8

(Podoben: “O Victorious Leader...”)
Protect and preserve all who celebrate the transfer of your honorable relics with faith and love / from every evil and temptation of the serpent, O blessed one, / for you have boldness before Christ God, the Master of all. / Entreat Him to save the Orthodox people who pray to you, that all of us may cry: / “Rejoice, Father James, adornment of the land of Russia.”

Kontakion — Tone 8

Like a bright star, O Father, / you shone forth in the east, and came west, O blessed one, at the transfer of your relics. / Now, like the rays of the sun, you radiate healing for those who come to the shrine of your relics. / Pray to Christ God to save the Orthodox people who pray to you, that all may cry: / “Rejoice, divinely-wise James.”
