Repentance, because they had (before) ceased oppressing her, and also they turned (back) they oppressed her unto the end. She said this repentance, saying thus, I confided in unto thee, O Light, leave me not in the Chaos, redeem me and deliver me in thy knowledge. I confided in thee and thou deliverest me: become for me deliverer, O Light, and deliver me and bring me (close) to thy light: because thou art my Saviour, and thou wilt bring me (close) to thee. And because of the mystery of thy name guide me, and give to me thy mystery: and thou wilt deliver me from this power of face of lion which ensnared me; because thou art my Saviour, and I shall give the purgation of my light unto thy hands. Thou [78^b] deliveredst me, O Light, by thy knowledge. Thou wast angry with those who are watchful against me, these who will not be able to lay hold on me for ever.
