Chapter 37 - Iesus promised to the disciples, Pistis Sophia third penitence
Iesus promiseth to perfect the disciples in all things.
The Saviour answered and said unto Peter:
"Finely, Peter; this is the solution of her. penitence. Blessed are ye before all men on the earth, because I have revealed unto you these mysteries.
Amēn, amēn,
I say unto you: I will perfect you in all fulness from the mysteries (of the interior) to the mysteries (of the exterior) and fill you with the spirit, so that ye shall be called 'spiritual, perfected in all fulness.' And,
amēn, amēn,
I say unto you: I will give unto you all the mysteries of all the regions of my Father and of all the regions of the First Mystery, so that he whom ye shall admit on earth, shall be admitted into the Light (of the height); and he whom ye shall expel on earth, shall be expelled from the Kingdom (of my Father) in the heaven.
2. The third repentance of Sophia.
But hearken, therefore, and give ear attentively to all the penitences which Pistis Sophia hath uttered. She continued again and uttered the third penitence, saying:
"'1. O Light (of powers), give heed and save me.
"'2. May they who would take away my light, lack and be in the darkness. May they who would take away my power, turn into chaos and be put to shame.
"'3. May they turn quickly to darkness, who press me sore and say:
We have become lords over her.
"'4. May rather all those who seek the Light, rejoice and exult, and they who desire thy mystery, say ever:
May the mystery be exalted.
"'5. Save me then now, O Light, for I lacked my light, which they have taken away, and I needed my power, which they have taken from me. Thou then, O Light, thou art my saviour, and thou art my deliverer, O Light. Save me quickly out of this chaos.'"
