Troparion
As Orthodox sweetness and divine nectar, Venerable Father
thou dost flow into the hearts of believers as a wealth:
by thy life and teachings thou didst reveal thyself to be a living book of the Spirit, most wise Justin;
therefore pray to Christ the Word
that the Word may dwell in those who honor thee.
