Today, we are honored to share excerpts from “Pistis Sophia.” Here, Pistis Sophia asks God for forgiveness and purification, putting her trust in Hiers deliverance.CHAPTER 57“And Jesus continued again in the discourse and said unto His disciples: ‘[…] “When then Pistis Sophia had said this, she continued again in the thirteenth repentance, saying: […] Now, therefore, O Light of lights, hearken unto me singing praises unto Thee in the thirteenth aeon, my region out of which I have come down. Save me, O Light, in Thy great mystery and forgive my transgression in Thy forgiveness. And give unto me the baptism and forgive my sins and purify me from my transgression. And my transgression is the lion-faced power, which will never be hidden from Thee; for because of it have I gone down. And I alone among the invisibles, in whose regions I was, have transgressed, and have gone down into the chaos. Moreover, I have transgressed, that Thy commandment may be accomplished.” […]’”CHAPTER 58“And Jesus continued again in the discourse and said unto His disciples: ‘It came to pass then, when Pistis Sophia had said these words, that the time was fulfilled that she should be led out of the chaos. […] It came to pass then, when the emanations of self-willed pursued Sophia, when she had been led into the higher regions of the chaos, that she again sang praises and cried out unto Me, saying: “I will sing praises unto Thee, O Light, for I desired to come unto Thee. I will sing Thee praises, O Light, for thou are my deliverer. […]”’And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished speaking these words unto His disciples, that Salome came forward and said: ‘My Lord, my power constrains me to speak the solution of the words which Pistis Sophia has uttered. Thy power has prophesied aforetime through Solomon, saying: “I will give thanks unto Thee, O Lord, for Thou are my God. Abandon me not, O Lord, for Thou are my hope. Thou have given me Thy vindication for naught, and I am saved through Thee. Let them who pursue me, […] may a smoke-cloud cover their eyes […] so that they may not seize me. May their resolution be impotent […]. They have devised a resolution, and it has not taken effect for them. And they are vanquished, although they be mighty, and what they have wickedly prepared is fallen upon them. My hope is in the Lord, and I shall not be afraid, for Thou are my God, my Savior.’ It came to pass then, when Salome had finished saying these words, that Jesus said unto her: ‘Well said, Salome; and finely. This is the solution of the words which Pistis Sophia has uttered.’”
