68CHAPTER 581. And Jesus continued again in the discourse and said unto his disciples: \then, when Pistis Sophia had said these words, that the time was fulfilled that she should be led out of the chaos. And of myself, without the First Mystery, I despatched out of myself a light-power, and I sent it down to the chaos, so that it might lead Pistis Sophia forth from the deep regions of the chaos, and lead [her] to the higher regions of the chaos, until the command should come from the First Mystery that she should be led entirely forth out of the chaos. And my light-power led Pistis Sophia up to the higher regions of the chaos. 2.

And my light-power, which I had sent to lead up Sophia out of the chaos, shone exceedingly. 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:4. \praises, O Light, for thou art my deliverer.5. \praised.6. \higher regions of the chaos.7. \of the chaos, and let them not come to the higher regions to see me.8. \not see me in the light of thy power, which thou hast sent unto me to save me, so that they may not again get dominion over me.9. \effect for them. And as they have spoken against me, to take from me my light, take rather from them theirs instead of mine.10. \it, for thy light-power was with me.11. \they not been able to take away my light.12. \and I shall not fear.'13. \Pistis Sophia hath uttered.\
