Troparion of the Cross

Спаси́, Го́споди, люде́й Твої́х і благослови́ наслі́ддя Твоє́, перемо́ги благові́рному наро́дові на супроти́вників дару́й і хресто́м Твої́м охорони́ люд Твій.

[Save your people, O Lord, and bless Your inheritance. Grant victory to Your faithful people against enemies, and protect your community by Your cross.]

Kontakion of the Cross

Возні́сся Ти на хрест во́лею Своє́ю. Ново́му лю́дові Твоє́му, що Твоє́ ім’я́ но́сить, дару́й щедро́ти Твої́, Хри́сте Бо́же. Возвесели́ си́лою Твоє́ю благові́рний наро́д, перемо́ги на супроти́вників дай йому́, що за посі́бник ма́є Твоє́ ору́жжя ми́ру, непобо́рну перемо́гу.

[By Your own choice, O Christ our God, You were lifted on the cross. Grant Your mercies to Your new community that bears Your Name. By Your power gladden the faithful people, and grant them victory against enemies. May they have the help of Your instrument of peace, the invincible sign of victory.]
