經云：『寓我心中之聖神、愛我情深、不容我別有所戀；』爾以此語為虛發乎。

你们想经上所说是徒然的吗？神所赐、住在我们里面的灵，是恋爱至于嫉妒吗？

经上说：“上帝爱安置在我们里面的灵，爱到嫉妒的地步。”你们以为这话是徒然的吗？

经上说：“神爱安置在我们里面的灵，爱到嫉妒的地步。”你们以为这话是徒然的吗？

經豈空言無補哉、在我之神、詎懷媢嫉哉、

爾以為聖經所言徒然乎、居於我內之神、居於我內之神或作天主所賜居於我內之神乃使人懷慾以致嫉妒乎、或作經載云居於我內之神甚欲我熱中服之爾意是言徒然乎

Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us?

Don’t you know what Scripture says? God wants the spirit in us to belong only to him. God caused this spirit to live in us. Don’t you think Scripture has a reason for saying this?

Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says,“ He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”?

Do you think the Scriptures have no meaning? They say that God is passionate that the spirit he has placed within us should be faithful to him.

Or do you think it’s without reason that the Scripture says: The spirit he made to dwell in us envies intensely?

Or do you think that the Scripture says to no purpose,“ He jealously desires the Spirit whom He has made to dwell in us”?

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain,“ The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously”?

Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain? Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying?

Or do you think it’s without reason the Scripture says that the Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously?

Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?

Or do you think the scripture means nothing when it says,“ The spirit that God caused to live within us has an envious yearning”?

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain,“ The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously”?

天主之殿與人造之像、不能相親。蓋吾人固永生天主之聖殿也。天主不云乎：『吾欲寓於其中、吾欲為彼等之天主、而彼等則吾之子民也。』

豈不知天主已賜爾以聖神、而爾身即為聖神之宮殿乎？爾身非復爾之所有；

莫羨彼群小。莫妒作惡人。

夫承天主聖言者、且得稱為神、而經文固不可廢也；

蓋吾人從前亦昏昧悖逆、徬徨岐途、縱情恣慾、險狠媢嫉；己實可惡、而轉以惡人。

復在營中。嫉妒每瑟。曁彼亞倫。天縱之哲。

淫邪貪狠、不義充身、乃至鬥殺成性、嫉妒為心、詭詐險毒、

又云：『眾將瞻仰其所刺之身。』至是乃悉見應驗矣。

經不云：「基督出於大維之裔、而來自大維故鄉百利恆」乎？』

古經實已逆睹天主之將使普天萬民因信成義、故預報福音於亞伯漢曰：『天下萬民、咸將蒙休於爾懷中。』

族祖嫉若瑟、鬻之埃及、而天主偕之、

經中又載告諭法老之言曰：『吾使爾崛興、用顯吾能於爾身、用彰吾名於普世。』
