Troparion
Tone 1
Seeing the richness of the virtues of Job,
the enemy of the righteous plotted to steal them;
yet though he broke down the tower of his body,
he could not steal the treasure of his spirit;
for he who, having stripped me naked, took me captive
found the soul of the blameless one fully armed.
Wherefore, anticipating my need before the end, O Savior,
deliver me from the deceiver and save me.
