1This is the Gospel of the one they search for, revealed to those who are complete through the mercies of the Father, the hidden mystery.

2Through it (the Gospel), Jesus Christ enlightened those who were in darkness through forgetfulness.

3He enlightened them; he showed them a Way, and the Way is the Truth which he taught them.

4As a result, Error was angry.

5It pursued him.

6It was threatened by him and brought to nothing.

7They nailed him (Jesus) to a tree, and he became the fruit of the Father’s knowledge.

8However, it (the fruit) didn’t cause destruction when it was eaten, but those who ate it were given joy in the discovery.

9He discovered them in himself and they discovered him in themselves.

10As for the uncontainable, inconceivable one – the Father, the complete one who made all – all are within him, and all need him.

11Although he kept their completion within himself which he didn’t give to all, the Father wasn’t jealous.

12Indeed, what jealousy is there between him and his members?

13For if, like this, the generation [received the completion,] they couldn’t have come […] the Father.

14He keeps their completion within himself, giving it to them to return to him with a unitary knowledge in completion.

15He’s the one who made all, and all are within him, and all need him.

16Like someone who’s unknown, he wants to be known and loved – because what did all need if not the knowledge of the Father?

17He became a guide, peaceful and leisurely.

18He came and spoke the Word as a teacher in places of learning.

19Those who were wise in their own estimation came up to him to test him, but he confounded them because they were vain.

20They hated him because they weren’t wise in Truth.

21After all of them, all the little children came too; theirs is the knowledge of the Father.

22When they were strengthened, they received teaching about the Father’s expressions.

23They knew and they were known; they received glory and they gave glory.

24In their hearts the living Book of the Living was revealed, which was written in the thought and mind [of the] Father, and before the [foundation] of all within his incomprehensibility.

25This (book) is impossible to take, since it permits the one who takes it to be killed.

26No one could’ve been revealed among those who'd been entrusted with salvation unless the book had appeared.

27Because of this, the merciful and faithful Jesus patiently suffered until he took that book, since he knows that his death is life for many.

28When a will hasn’t yet been opened, the wealth of the deceased master of the house is hidden; so too all were hidden while the Father of all was invisible.

29They were from him, from whom every realm comes.

30Because of this:

31Jesus was revealed,

32put on that book,

33was nailed to a tree,

34and published the Father’s edict on the cross.

35Oh, what a great teaching!

36Drawing himself down to death,

37he clothed himself in eternal life,

38stripped himself of the perishable rags,

39and clothed himself in incorruptibility,

40which no one can take from him.

41When he entered the empty realms of terror, he passed through those who were stripped by forgetfulness, being knowledge and completion, proclaiming the things that are in the heart […] teach those who will [receive teaching].
