33# 良善与真理在主里面是合一的,从祂发出时也是合一的,因此良善爱慕真理,真理爱慕良善,两者都愿合而为一。同样,其对立面也是如此——邪恶爱慕伪谬,伪谬爱慕邪恶,两者也愿合而为一。良善与真理的结合,在本书中称为“天国的婚姻”;邪恶与伪谬的结合,则称为“地狱的婚姻”。
Life33.由于良善与真理在主里面是一体,并作为一体从祂发出,所以可推知,良善热爱真理,真理热爱良善,它们渴望成为一体。它们的反面也一样:邪恶热爱虚假,虚假热爱邪恶,它们也渴望成为一体。在下文,良善与真理的结合将被称为天堂的婚姻,邪恶与虚假的结合将被称为地狱的婚姻。
33. Since what is good and what is true are one in the Lord and emanate from him as one, it follows that goodness loves truth, truth loves goodness, and they want to be one. The same holds true for their opposites. What is evil loves what is false and what is false loves what is evil, and they want to be one. In the following pages the union of goodness and truth will be called "the heavenly marriage" and the union of evil and falsity "the hellish marriage."
33. Since goodness and truth are united in the Lord, and emanate from Him as one, it follows that goodness loves truth, and truth goodness, and they wish to be united. Likewise the opposite of these, that evil loves falsity, and falsity evil, and they wish to be united.
In the following pages, I will call the union of goodness and truth the heavenly marriage, and the union of evil and falsity the infernal marriage.
33. Since good and truth are one in the Lord and proceed as one from Him, it follows that good loves truth and truth loves good, and that they desire to be one. The like is true of their opposites, that evil loves falsity and falsity evil, and that they desire to be one. In the following pages the conjunction of good and truth will be called the heavenly marriage, and the conjunction of evil and falsity, the infernal marriage.
33. As good and truth are a one in the Lord, and proceed as a one from Him, it follows that good loves truth and truth loves good, and they will to be a one.

In the following pages the conjunction of good and truth will be called the Heavenly Marriage, and that of evil and falsity the Infernal Marriage.
33. Quoniam Bonum et Verum unum sunt in Domino, ac ut unum procedunt ab Ipso, sequitur quod bonum amet verum, et verum amet bonum, ac velint unum esse. Similiter oppositum illorum, quod malum amet falsum, et falsum malum, ac velint unum esse. Conjunctio boni et veri in sequentibus vocabitur conjugium caeleste; et conjunctio mali et falsi conjugium infernale.
