Chapter 5 |

|
|
1. |
Now when the heavens had consolidated themselves along with their forces and all their administration, the prime parent became insolent.
|
|
2. |
And he was honored by all the army of angels.
|
|
3. |
And all the gods and their angels gave blessing and honor to him.
|
|
4. |
And for his part, he was delighted and continually boasted, saying to them, I have no need of anyone.
|
|
5. |
He said, It is I who am God, and there is no other one that exists apart from me.
|
|
6. |
And when he said this, he sinned against all the immortal beings who give answer.
|
|
7. |
And they laid it to his charge.
|
|
8. |
Then when Pistis saw the impiety of the chief ruler, she was filled with anger.
|
|
9. |
She was invisible. She said, You are mistaken, Satan, (that is, blind god).
|
|
10. |
There is an immortal man of light who has been in existence before you, and who will appear among your modelled forms;
|
|
11. |
He will trample you to scorn, just as potters clay is pounded.
|
|
12. |
And you will descend to your mother, the abyss, along with those that belong to you.
|
|
13. |
For at the consummation of your (pl.) works, the entire defect that has become visible out of the truth will be abolished,
|
|
14. |
And it will cease to be, and will be like what has never been.
|
|
15. |
Saying this, Pistis revealed her likeness of her greatness in the waters.
|
|
16. |
And so doing, she withdrew up to her light.
|
|
17. |
Now when Sabaoth, the son of YHWH, heard the voice of Divine Wisdom, he sang praises to her, and he condemned the father [...] at the word of Divine Wisdom;
|
|
18. |
and he praised her because she had instructed them about the immortal man and his light.
|
|
19. |
Then Pistis Sophia stretched out her finger and poured upon him some light from her light, to be a condemnation of his father.
|
|
20. |
Then when Sabaoth was illumined, he received great authority against all the forces of the unmanifest void.
|
|
21. |
Since that day he has been called Lord of the Forces.
