George Horner's translation (1924) follows the Coptic word order very closely, so the English is often awkward. Bracketed numbers such as [114a] are manuscript page references.

Pistis Sophia, literally translated from the Coptic by George Horner, with an introduction by F. Legge (London: SPCK, 1924). Public domain. Transcribed by Project Gutenberg volunteers (Distributed Proofreaders). · Source ↗
