Οἱ Ἅγιοι 38 Ἀββάδες οἱ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Σινᾷ ἀναιρεθέντες
Οἱ Ἅγιοι 33 Πατέρες Ἀββάδες οἱ ἐν τῇ Ραϊθῷ ἀναιρεθέντες
Ὁ Ὅσιος Ἀδάμ ἀπὸ τοὺς 33 ἐν Ραϊθῷ Ὁσιομάρτυρες
西奈山和莱苏的诸位成德殉道者
奈山和莱苏的这些殉道圣徒为撒拉逊人所杀害。西奈山的教父们在公元4世纪，莱苏的教父们在公元5世纪时候遇害。
A boy of 14 years of age led among them an ascetic life of great perfection. The Saracens threatened to kill him, if he did not discover where the ancient monks had concealed themselves. He answered, that death did not terrify him, and that he could not ransom his life by a sin in betraying his fathers. They bade him put off his clothes: "After you have killed me, " said the modest youth, "take my clothes and welcome: but as I never saw my body naked, have so much compassion and regard for my shamefacedness, as to let me die covered. " The barbarians enraged at this answer, fell on him with all their weapons at once, and the pious youth died by as many martyrdoms as he had executioners. St Nilus, who had been formerly governor of Constantinople, has left us an account of this massacre in seven narratives; at that time he led an eremetical life in those deserts, and had placed his son Theodulus in this holy company. He was carried away captive, but redeemed after many dangers.
The first time under Diocletian in 305, a second time under Valerian, on December 28, 370, and finally in 400 under Arcadius. Finding only straw mats and monks dressed in hair-shirts, these exasperated nomads prayed there to the monks whom they had massacred at Sinai and at Raitho. The Fathers have handed down to us a collective feast for all these monks on January 14. In order to protect the monks against the Blemmyes and other barbarians, the pious Emperor Justinian built there in 527 the famous monastery of the holy mountain of Sinai, called since the Ninth century: the Monastery of Saint Catherine.

圣尼纳，格鲁吉亚的启蒙者
尼纳是伟大的殉道者圣格奥尔吉和耶路撒冷牧首犹文纳里的亲戚。尼纳的父母是卡帕多西亚的贵族，因为尼纳的父母都已剪发出家，尼纳就在牧首犹文纳里的监护下接受教育。听到有关格鲁吉亚人的情况后，从童年时期起，尼纳就向往到格鲁吉亚去，使这个民族受洗。此后圣母向尼纳显现，并许诺将带领她到格鲁吉亚。当主为她开辟了道路之后，年轻的尼纳就来到了格鲁吉亚，在很短的时间内，她获得了当地人民的爱戴，并成功地劝服国王弥里安、王后诺纳和王子巴卡尔接受了浸礼，后来巴卡尔以极大的热情协助尼纳的传教活动。在有生之年，尼纳走遍了全格鲁吉亚，为使全国的民众都皈依基督的正道。当时正值罗马帝国戴克里先皇帝残酷迫害基督徒的时期。公元335年，为主劳碌一生的尼纳安息主怀。她的圣髑被奉安于摩茨凯塔大教堂。圣尼纳在生前就领受了行灵迹的恩典，在她安息后，也广行奇迹，利益众生。
The Most Holy Virgin heard her prayers and appeared to Nino in a dream, saying, "Go to the country that was assigned to me by lot and preach the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. He will send down His grace upon you and I will be your protector."
But the blessed Nino was overwhelmed at the thought of such a great responsibility and answered, "How can I, a fragile woman, perform such a momentous task, and how can I believe that this vision is real?" In response, the Most Holy Theotokos presented her with a cross of grapevines and proclaimed, "Receive this cross as a shield against visible and invisible enemies!" When she awoke, Nino was holding the cross in her hands. She dampened it with tears of rejoicing and tied it securely with strands of her own hair. According to another source, the Theotokos bound the grapevine cross with strands of her own hair.
Nino related the vision to her uncle, Patriarch Juvenal, and revealed to him her desire to preach the Gospel in Georgia. Juvenal led her in front of the Royal Doors, laid his hands on her, and prayed, "O Lord, God of Eternity, I beseech Thee on behalf of my orphaned niece: Grant that, according to Thy will, she may go to preach and proclaim Thy Holy Resurrection. O Christ God, be Thou to her a guide, a refuge, and a spiritual father. And as Thou didst enlighten the Apostles and all those who feared Thy name, do Thou also enlighten her with the wisdom to proclaim Thy glad tidings."
She was exceedingly sorrowful and prayed to the Lord, "O Lord, send down Thy mercy upon this nation
...that all nations may glorify Thee alone, the One True God, through Thy Son, Jesus Christ."
