Pistis Sophia 65

1Uma torrente saiu e tornou-se uma grande e vasta inundação.

1A stream came forth and became a great wide flood.

2Tudo arrastou para si e voltou-se contra o templo.

2It tore away all to itself and turned itself against the temple.

3Diques e edifícios não puderam detê-la, nem a arte dos que represam as águas.

3Dams and buildings could not hold it, nor could the art of them who hold the waters.

4Foi conduzida sobre toda a terra e apoderou-se de tudo.

4It was led over the whole land and laid hold of all.

5Os que estavam na areia seca beberam; a sua sede foi aplacada e saciada quando o trago da mão do Altíssimo lhes foi dado.

5They who were on the dry sand, drank; their thirst was quieted and quenched, when the draught from the hand of the Highest was given.

6Bem-aventurados os ministros daquele trago, aos quais a água do Senhor foi confiada.

6Blessed are the ministers of that draught, to whom the water of the Lord is entrusted.

7Refrigeraram lábios ressequidos; aqueles cujo poder fora tirado receberam alegria de coração e tomaram posse das almas, derramando nelas o fôlego para que não morressem.

7They have refreshed parched lips; they whose power was taken away, have gotten joy of heart and they have laid hold of souls, having poured in the breath, so that they should not die.

8Levantaram os membros que haviam caído; deram poder à sua franqueza e luz aos seus olhos.

8They have raised up limbs which were fallen; they have given power to their openness and light unto their eyes.
