1-64:64
Καὶ τὸ ἀνεγείρειν δὲ τὸ εἰδωλον τῆς λεγομένης Κ(??)ρης ἐπὶ ταῖς τῶν ὑδάτων πηγαῖς ἐνεργῆσαι τοὺς δαίμονας, λέγοντας θυγατέρα αὐτὴν εἶναι τοῦ Διός, μιμησαμένους τὸ διὰ Μωϋσέως εἰρημένον, ἐκ τῶν προειρημένων νοῆσαι δύνασθε. Ἔφη γὰρ ὁ Μωϋσῆς, ὡς προεγράψαμεν· Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἐποίησεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν.Ἡ δὲ γῆ ἦν ἀόρατος καὶ ἀκατασκεύαστος, καὶ πνεῦμα θεοῦ ἐπεφέρετο ἐπάνω τῶν ὑδάτων. Εἰς μίμησιν οὖν τοῦ λεχθέντος ἐπιφερομένου τῷ ύδατι πνεύματος θεοῦ τὴν Κόρην θυγατέρα τοῦ Διὸς ἐφασαν. Καὶ τὴν Ἀθηνᾶν δὲ ὁμοίως πονηρευόμενοι θυγατέρα τοῦ· Διὸς ἔφασαν, οὐκ ἀπὸ μίξεως, ἀλλ᾿, ἐπειδὴ ἐννοηθέντα τὸν θεὸν διὰ λόγου τὸν κόσμον ποιῆσαι ἔγνωσαν, ὡς τὴν πρώτην ἔννοιαν ἔφασαν τὴν Ἀθηνᾶν· ὅπερ γελοιότατον ἡγούμεθα εἶναι, τῆς ἐννοίας εἰκόνα παραφέρειν θηλειῶν μορφήν. Καὶ ὁμοίως τοὺς ἄλλους λεγομένους υἱοὺς τοῦ Λιὸς αἱ πράξεις ἐλέγχουσιν
And that the demons contrived to set up the image of her called Kore over the springs of waters, calling her the daughter of Zeus, in imitation of what was said through Moses, you can understand from what has been said before. For Moses said, as we wrote before, "In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth. And the earth was invisible and unformed, and the Spirit of God moved over the waters." In imitation, then, of the said Spirit of God moving over the water, they said that Kore was the daughter of Zeus. And likewise, in their wickedness, they said that Athena was the daughter of Zeus, not from sexual union, but because—since they knew that God, having conceived the design through the Word, made the world—they said that Athena was the first conception; which we consider most ridiculous, to bring forward the form of a woman as an image of the conception. And likewise the actions of the others said to be sons of Zeus convict them.
那些鬼魔設法將那名叫科蕊的偶像立在水泉之上，稱她為宙斯的女兒，乃是仿效藉摩西所說的話;這事你們從前述所言便可明白。因為摩西曾說，如我們先前所寫的：「起初神創造天地。地是空虛混沌，神的靈運行在水面上。」因此他們為了仿效所說那運行在水面上之神的靈，便說科蕊是宙斯的女兒。他們又照樣懷著邪惡，說雅典娜是宙斯的女兒，並非出於交合，乃因他們知道神是先有了意念、藉著道造了世界，便說雅典娜就是那頭一個意念;我們認為這實在荒謬至極，竟以女子的形像來代表意念。其餘那些所謂宙斯眾子的行為，也照樣定他們的罪。
