Paraklesis to the Holy Trinity, on behalf of a New Martyr

The Hospitality of Abraham, an icon of the Holy Trinity (source)

  
Note: The following is a service supplicating God, the Holy Trinity, to help a new martyr of Orthodoxy who is currently being tortured. These beautiful and moving prayers were written by St. Nikephoros of Chios (+1821), from a time several hundred years ago when, under the Ottoman Turks, the faithful would give their lives on a daily basis, refusing to deny Christ and their faith. And even in our days, there are many who suffer, and who will continue to suffer in the future, confessing Christ as the true God, Who put on flesh for our salvation, and refusing to worship foreign gods. May the Lord strengthen us all to witness to Him in word and deed, to the extent that we each are called. This is an amateur translation from the Greek text. I request reviewing this translation if possible before any public / liturgical use. Also note that the meter of this translation is not set to match the original music.

Prayer of entreaty, to strengthen him (her) who is struggling on behalf of the Holy Faith

Written by St. Athanasos of Paros.

Let us pray to the Lord.

O Lord Jesus Christ, Son and Word of the living God, the Fashioner and Creator of all things visible and invisible, the strength of those without strength, the foundation of the storm-tossed, Who sets things aright and Who lifts up those cast down, the guide of the lost, and the hope of the hopeless, the supporter of those who struggle and the crown-bestower of the victorious, Who put on our infirm human nature, and did not disdain to wear it, Who did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance, Who said through Your Prophet: “I do not desire the death of the sinner, but that he should return and live.” You, O Master Who loves man, all-compassionate and greatly merciful Lord, receive Your servant (name), Who once [may have] had a mindset of freedom and violence and the way of want, and with the guile and delusion of the serpent leader of evil on their shoulder (flee from this!), and followed the enemies of Your holy faith and the delusion of godlessness before the godless tyrants, instead of Your all-holy and worshiped name, but now, has come to the knowledge of his (her) own fall, and desiring to be refashioned, hastened to the stadium to struggle, and has arrayed himself (herself) in Your almighty help and grace. And now we pray to You, we sinners and unworthy ones, O Jesus Christ, the true God, Almighty One and Ruler over all: strengthen, support, make firm until the end, Your servant (name) who is struggling on behalf of You and of Your holy faith, and show him (her) to be a witness of the truth in the end. For You said, O Master, through Your holy mouth, that: “Without me, you can do nothing”, and furthermore: “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak”, for You said this and we confess it. Therefore O Lord, the lover and savior of souls, receive this one who has fled indifference and before men confesses You to be the only true God, and the Judge of the living and the dead, as You received the confession of Your Apostle Peter, and James the Persian, and a multitude of others of like nature to him, make him (her) worthy of Your ineffable love for man, that he (she) be guided towards this good confession and brave stance and to complete all things perfectly until the end, that the faithful might be gladdened in him (her), and therefore glorify Your all-holy name, the leader and founder of our holy faith, together with Your Father and Your all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, the one and only Godhead and life-creating Trinity, unto the ages of ages. Amen.
  

Ode VII. Once from out of Judea.

O only hidden One, inscrutable foundation, beginningless Father, confirm in the faith Your servant who is struggling, and who chants to You from the heart: O the God of our Fathers, blessed are You.
  

O Christ, grant that Your servant might count the tortures as nothing, and not be swayed by anything in life, and be brought forth to suffer and to die willingly, chanting unto You the Creator: O the God of our Fathers, blessed are You.
  

O All-holy Spirit, Who grants manliness unto the souls of the Martyrs, through Your illumination, strengthen him (her) Your servant who is struggling, and cries out: O the God of our Fathers, blessed are You.
  

Through the intercessions of the Martyrs, the Prophets and the Apostles, O undivided Trinity, strengthen Your servant who has boundless fervor for You, and is surrounded by dangers, and who chants: O the God of our Fathers, blessed are You.
  

Ode VIII. The King of heaven.

The Eternal One, the eternal beginningless Begetter, grant deliverance and guidance through tortures to him (her) who hymns Your might.
  

O Christ, the right hand of the Most-High, grant Your helping hand through tortures, to him (her) who hymns Your might.
  

The all-powerful and all-governing divine Spirit, grant power from on high, to him (her) who hymns Your might.
  

The almighty and all-working Godhead, quicken and deliver from on high him (her) who hymns Your might.
  

Ode IX. Saved through you, O Theotokos.

O Lady Theotokos, the protection of all, intercede towards God and the Father on behalf of him (her) who is now struggling to glorify Him.

  

O Lady Theotokos, offer up your motherly intercessions to Your Son, O Spotless One, on behalf of him (her) who is now struggling to glorify Him.
  

O Lady Theotokos, offer up intercessions to the divine and good Spirit, of behalf of him (her) who is now struggling to glorify Him.
  

O Lady Theotokos, intercede to the all-holy Trinity with your divine intercessions, on behalf of him (her) who is now struggling to glorify Him.
  

Megalynarion.

O Father, Word and Spirit, the one God, through the intercessions of the Theotokos, as the good and merciful one, make him (her) worthy who is now being tortured on behalf of Your glory, to finish the course.
  

Then the Trisagion, followed by the Penitential Troparia (“Have mercy on us, have mercy on us...”)

  

And after the Dismissal, the following Troparion in the Second Tone. When, from the tree.

O Trinity of equal throne and honor, O Father and Son and Spirit, as the Merciful One, receive our fervent supplications, offered from Your servants with our whole soul and heart to Your incomparable goodness, on behalf of Your servant, that he (she) be granted strength from on high, that Your Godhead might be glorified.
