Penciptaan Dunia

Pada awalnya hanya ada kekacauan. Then out of the void appeared Erebus, the unknowable place where death dwells, and Night. Kemudian keluar dari kekosongan muncul Erebus, tempat tinggal tidak dapat diketahui dimana kematian, dan Malam. All else was empty, silent, endless, darkness. lain Semua itu kosong, diam, tanpa akhir, kegelapan. Then somehow Love was born bringing a start of order. Lalu entah bagaimana Cinta lahir membawa awal ketertiban. From Love came Light and Day. Dari Cinta datang Cahaya dan Hari. Once there was Light and Day, Gaea , the earth appeared. Setelah ada Cahaya dan Hari, Gaea , bumi muncul.
Then Erebus slept with Night, who gave birth to Ether, the heavenly light, and to Day the earthly light. Kemudian Erebus tidur dengan Night, yang melahirkan Eter, surgawi cahaya, dan cahaya Hari duniawi. Then Night alone produced Doom, Fate, Death, Sleep, Dreams, Nemesis , and others that come to man out of darkness. Kemudian malam saja diproduksi Doom, Takdir, Kematian, Tidur, Mimpi, Nemesis , dan lain-lain yang datang kepada manusia keluar dari kegelapan.
Meanwhile Gaea alone gave birth to Uranus , the heavens. Sementara itu Gaea sendirian melahirkan Uranus , langit. Uranus became Gaea's mate covering her on all sides. Uranus menjadi pasangan Gaea's meliputi dia di semua sisi. Together they produced the three Cyclopes , the three Hecatoncheires , and twelve Titans . Bersama-sama mereka menghasilkan tiga Cyclopes , tiga Hecatoncheires , dan dua belas Titans .
However, Uranus was a bad father and husband. Namun, Uranus adalah ayah yang buruk dan suami. He hated the Hecatoncheires. Ia membenci Hecatoncheires. He imprisoned them by pushing them into the hidden places of the earth, Gaea's womb. Dia dipenjarakan mereka dengan mendorong mereka ke tempat-tempat tersembunyi dari bumi, rahim Gaea's. This angered Gaea and she ploted against Uranus. Gaea ini marah dan ia ploted melawan Uranus. She made a flint sickle and tried to get her children to attack Uranus. Dia membuat arit batu dan mencoba untuk mendapatkan anak-anaknya untuk menyerang Uranus. All were too afraid except, the youngest Titan, Cronus . Semua terlalu takut kecuali, itu, Titan termuda Cronus .
Gaea and Cronus set up an ambush of Uranus as he lay with Gaea at night. Gaea dan Cronus menyiapkan penyergapan Uranus ketika dia berbaring dengan Gaea di malam hari. Cronus grabed his father and castrated him, with the stone sickle, throwing the severed genitales into the ocean. Cronus grabed ayahnya dan dikebiri dia, dengan sabit batu, melempar genitales terputus ke laut. The fate of Uranus is not clear. Nasib Uranus tidak jelas. He either died, withdrew from the earth, or exiled himself to Italy. Dia baik meninggal, menarik diri dari bumi, atau diasingkan dirinya ke Italia. As he departed he promised that Cronus and the Titans would be punished. Saat ia berangkat ia berjanji bahwa Cronus dan Titans akan dihukum. From his spilt blood came the Giants , the Ash Tree Nymphs , and the Erinnyes . Dari tumpah darah-Nya datang Giants , para Ash Pohon Nimfa , dan Erinnyes . From the sea foam where his genitales fell came Aphrodite . Dari busa laut di mana genitales nya jatuh datang Aphrodite .
Cronus became the next ruler. Cronus menjadi penguasa berikutnya. He imprisoned the Cyclopes and the Hecatoncheires in Tartarus . Dia memenjarakan Cyclopes dan Hecatoncheires di Tartarus . He married his sister Rhea , under his rule the Titans had many offspring. Ia menikah adiknya Rhea , di bawah pemerintahannya Titans telah banyak keturunan. He ruled for many ages. Ia memerintah selama berabad-abad banyak. However, Gaea and Uranus both had prophesied that he would be overthrown by a son. Namun, Gaea dan Uranus keduanya telah bernubuat bahwa dia akan digulingkan oleh anak laki-laki. To avoid this Cronus swallowed each of his children as they were born. Untuk menghindari hal ini ditelan Cronus masing-masing anak-anaknya saat mereka lahir. Rhea was angry at the treatment of the children and ploted against Cronus. Rhea marah pada perlakuan terhadap anak-anak dan ploted melawan Cronus. When it came time to give birth to her sixth child, Rhea hid herself, then she left the child to be raised by nymphs. Ketika tiba saatnya untuk melahirkan anak keenam, Rhea menyembunyikan dirinya sendiri, kemudian dia meninggalkan anak yang akan dibesarkan oleh peri. To concel her act she wrapped a stone in swaddling cloths and passed it off as the baby to Cronus, who swallowed it. Untuk concel bertindak dia batu dibungkus dalam kain lampin dan lulus ini sebagai bayi kepada Cronus, yang menelannya.
This child was Zeus . Anak ini adalah Zeus . He grew into a handsome youth on Crete. Dia tumbuh menjadi seorang pemuda tampan di Kreta. He consulted Metis on how to defeat Cronus. Dia berkonsultasi Metis tentang cara untuk mengalahkan Cronus. She prepaired a drink for Cronus design to make him vomit up the other children. Dia persiapkan minum untuk desain Cronus untuk membuatnya muntah sampai anak-anak lain. Rhea convinced Cronus to accept his son and Zeus was allowed to return to Mount Olympus as Cronus's cupbearer. Rhea yakin Cronus untuk menerima anaknya dan Zeus diizinkan untuk kembali ke Gunung Olympus sebagai's juru minum Cronus. This gave Zeus the opertunity to slip Cronus the specially prepaired drink. Hal ini memberikan Zeus opertunity menyelinap Cronus minuman khusus persiapkan. This worked as planned and the other five children were vomitted up. Hal ini berhasil seperti yang direncanakan dan lima lainnya anak-anak vomitted up. Being gods they were unharmed. Menjadi dewa mereka terluka. They were thankful to Zeus and made him their leader. Mereka berterima kasih kepada Zeus dan membuatnya pemimpin mereka.
Cronus was yet to be defeated. Cronus itu belum dikalahkan. He and the Titans, except Prometheus , Epimetheus , and Oceanus , fought to retain their power. Atlas became their leader in battle and it looked for some time as though they would win and put the young gods down. Dia dan Titans, kecuali Prometheus , Epimetheus , dan Oceanus , berjuang untuk mempertahankan kekuasaan mereka. Atlas menjadi pemimpin mereka dalam pertempuran dan mencari beberapa waktu seolah-olah mereka akan menang dan menempatkan dewa muda bawah. However, Zeus was cunning. Namun, Zeus adalah licik. He went down to Tartarus and freed the Cyclopes and the Hecatoncheires. Dia pergi ke Tartarus dan membebaskan Cyclopes dan Hecatoncheires. Prometheus joined Zeus as well. Prometheus bergabung Zeus juga. He returned to battle with his new allies. Ia kembali ke pertempuran dengan sekutu barunya. The Cyclopes provided Zeus with lighting bolts for weapons. The Cyclopes diberikan Zeus dengan pencahayaan baut untuk senjata. The Hecatoncheires he set in ambush armed with boulders. The Hecatoncheires ia menetapkan dalam penyergapan bersenjata dengan batu-batu besar. With the time right, Zeus retreated drawing the Titans into the Hecatoncheires's ambush. Dengan tepat waktu, Zeus menarik mundur para Titan ke penyergapan Hecatoncheires itu. The Hecatoncheires rained down hundreds of boulders with such a fury the Titans thought the mountains were falling on them. The Hecatoncheires menghujani ratusan batu dengan semacam kemarahan Titans mengira gunung-gunung jatuh pada mereka. They broke and ran giving Zeus victory. Mereka pecah dan berlari memberikan kemenangan Zeus.
Zeus exiled the Titans who had fought against him into Tartarus. Zeus diasingkan Titans yang telah berperang melawan dia ke Tartarus. Except for Atlas, who was singled out for the special punishment of holding the world on his shoulders. Kecuali untuk Atlas, yang dipilih untuk hukuman khusus memegang dunia di pundaknya.
However, even after this victory Zeus was not safe. Namun, bahkan setelah ini Zeus kemenangan itu tidak aman. Gaea angry that her children had been imprisoned gave birth to a last offspring, Typhoeus . Gaea marah karena anak-anaknya pernah dipenjara melahirkan seorang keturunan terakhir, Typhoeus . Typhoeus was so fearsome that most of the gods fled. Typhoeus begitu menakutkan bahwa sebagian besar dewa melarikan diri. However, Zeus faced the monster and flinging his lighting bolts was able to kill it. Namun, Zeus dihadapi rakasa dan melemparkan baut pencahayaan nya bisa membunuhnya. Typhoeus was burried under Mount Etna in Sicily. Typhoeus itu ditanam di bawah Gunung Etna di Sisilia.
Much later a final challenge to Zeus rule was made by the Giants . Banyak kemudian tantangan terakhir untuk memerintah Zeus dibuat oleh Giants . They went so far as to attempt to invade Mount Olympus, piling mountain upon mountain in an effort to reach the top. Mereka pergi sejauh untuk berusaha menyerang Gunung Olympus, menumpuk di atas gunung-gunung dalam upaya untuk mencapai puncak. But, the gods had grown strong and with the help of Heracles the Giants were subdued or killed. Tapi, para dewa telah tumbuh kuat dan dengan bantuan Heracles Giants ditundukkan atau dibunuh.
