Commemorated on April 27
Troparion — Tone 1
We acclaim you, kinsman of Christ, Simeon, / as a great hierarch and steadfast martyr, / for you eradicated error and kept the Faith. / Today, as we celebrate your memory, / we receive forgiveness of sins through your prayers.
Kontakion — Tone 2
As one who has become a citizen of Zion on high, / you had been ordained to the throne of Zion below. / You guided your flock to the heavenly sheepfold, blessed Simeon, / and for the sake of Christ, you were crucified, / imitating His passion.
