On his scroll is a lengthy passage from Job 12:4 in Slavonic: "For a righteous and blameless man became a subject for mockery, for it had been ordained that he should fall under others at the appointed time, and that his house should be laid to waste by the lawless." The Blessed Martyr Nicholas wears an elaborate red robe, and is crowned with the golden Cap of Monomakh (шапка Мономаха), the symbol and crown of the Muscovite Grand Princes and Russian Tsars.
