Deus, qui Ecclésiam tuam beáti Ephræm Confessóris tui et Doctoris mira eruditióne et præcláris vitæ méritis illustráre voluísti: te súpplices exorámus; ut, ipso intercedénte, eam advérsus erróris et pravitátis insídias perénni tua virtúte deféndas.
O God, Who willed to enlighten Your Church by the wondrous learning and glorious merits of the life of blessed Ephrem, Your Confessor and Doctor, we humbly pray You, that, by his pleading, You will shield her with Your lasting power against the snares of error and evil.
