[[Troparion]] (Tone 5)
:Let us praise with sacred songs the Holy Apostle Luke,
:The recorder of the Joyous Gospel of Christ,
:And the scribe of the Acts of the Apostles,
:For his writings are a testimony of the Church of Christ:
:He is the Physician of human weaknesses and infirmities.
:He heals the wounds of our souls,
:And constantly intercedes for our salvation!
[[Kontakion]] (Tone 4)
:You became a disciple of God the Word,
:With Paul you enlightened all the world,
:Casting out its darkness by composing the Holy Gospel of Christ.
Kontakion (Tone 2)
:Let us praise the godly Luke:
:He is the true preacher of piety,
:The orator of ineffable mysteries
:And the star of the Church,
:For the Word who alone knows the hearts of men,
:Chose him, with the wise Paul, to be a teacher of the gentiles!
