26 Yes, they shall save all such as do such things, and walk in innocence and simplicity.
27 They who are of this kind shall prevail against all impiety, and continue until life eternal.
28 Happy are all they that do righteousness, they shall not be consumed for ever.
29 But thou wilt say, Behold there is a great trial coming. If it seem good to thee, deny him again.
30 The Lord is nigh to them that turn to him, as it is written in the book of Heldam and Modal, who prophesied to the people of Israel in the wilderness.
31 Moreover, brethren, it was revealed to me, as I was sleeping, by a very goodly young man, saying unto me, What thinkest thou of that old woman from whom thou receivedst the book; who is she? I answered, a Sybil.
32 Thou art mistaken said he, she is not. I replied, Who is she then, sir? He answered me, It is the church of God.
33 And I said unto him, Why then does she appear old? She is therefore, said he, an old woman, because she was the first of all the creation, and the world was made for her.
34 After this I saw a vision at home in my own house, and the old woman, whom I had seen before, came to me and asked me whether I had yet delivered her book to the elders of the church? And I answered, that I had not yet.
35 She replied, Thou hast well done, for I have certain words more to tell thee. But when I shall have finished all the words, they shall be clearly understood by the elect.
