Of the powers which Yew bound into the five regents
Jesus continued and said: “Hearken then, that I may tell you their mystery. It came to pass when Yew had thus bound them, that he drew forth a power out of the great Invisible and bound it to him who is called Kronos. And he drew another power out of Ipsantachoun-chainchoucheoch, who is one of the three triple-powered gods, and bound it to Ares. And he drew a power out of Chainchoooch, who also is one of the three triple-powered gods, and bound it to Hermes. Again he drew a power out of the Pistis, the Sophia, daughter of Barbelo, and bound it to Aphrodite.”
Of the functions of Zeus, the chief regent
“And moreover he perceived that they needed a helm to steer the world and the aeons of the sphere, so that they might not wreck the world in their wickedness. He went into the Middle, drew forth a power out of the little Sabaoth, the Good, him of the Middle, and bound it to Zeus, because he is a good regent, so that he may steer them in his goodness. And he set thus established the circling of his order, that he should spend thirteen [? three] months in every aeon, confirming [it], so that he may set free all the rulers over whom he cometh, from the evil of their wickedness. And he gave him two aeons, which are in face of those of Hermes, for his dwelling.”
The incorruptible names of the regents
“I have told you for the first time the names of these five great rulers with which the men of the world are wont to call them. Hearken now then that I may tell you also their incorruptible names, which are: Orimouth correspondeth to Kronos; Mounichounaphor correspondeth to Ares; Tarpetanouph correpondeth to Hermes; Chosi correspondeth to Aphrodite; Chonbal correspondeth to Zeus. These are their incorruptible names.”
