I had posted a more thorough analysis and lost it due to being logged out. This is a summary of the process with less of an explanation. As such, it may sound arbitrary, but the translation is sound, and the implications worth thinking about at least.

The Key phrase in the Ars Goetia is:

72 Kings be under the Power of AMAYMON, CORSON, ZIMIMAY and GÖAP, who are the Four Great Kings ruling in the Four Quarters, or Cardinal Points…


The words to be transliterated into Hebrew are the capitalized names:

AMAYMON: HM-AMVN = Heat of Amon (the four-fold solar principle)
CORSON: KVRShN = Possessor of their furnace
ZIMIMAY: TzI-MIMI = Vessel of my waters
GÖAP = GOH-AP = Impassioned howling (incantations of a Göes/summoner)

Inserting, we get:

Seventy-two Kings are under the power of the heat of Amon, possessor of the furnace, vessel of my waters and impassioned incantations, who are the Four Great Kings ruling in the four Quarters etc.

The phrase can be rearranged to make better sense in English:

Seventy-two Kings are under the power of the heat of Amon who possesses the furnace that is the vessel (of brass) of my waters and impassioned incantations. It [the four-fold solar principle] manifests as the Four Great Kings (etc).

Certainly this is no proof, especially in summarized form. However, it explains and interprets, and in a manner that is based on the traditions surrounding the Ars Goetia and its coupling of spirits to divine names from the book of Exodus.
