83# “诚实”也包括正直、公正、忠信和公义。人不能凭自己处于这些美德中，以致因它们本身而爱它们。但那些视欺诈、诡诈、欺骗为罪而逃避的人，就处于这些美德中——不是出于自己，而是出于主，如前所述（第18-31节）。祭司如此，官员如此，审判官如此，商人如此，工人如此，每一个人在自己的职分和工作中都是如此。
Life83.“诚实”也表示正直、公正、忠信和道德。人无法凭自己处于这些美德，以至于出于并为了这些美德本身而热爱它们。但他若避欺诈、狡猾和诡计如罪，就能处于这些并非来自他自己，而是来自主的美德，如前面所解释的（18-31节）。这适用于牧师、行政官员、法官、商人和劳动者，就是在各自职业和工作上的每个人。
83. "Honesty" also means integrity, fairness, faithfulness, and morality. On our own, we cannot be devoted to these so as to love them for what they are, for their own sakes, but if we turn our backs on deception, guile, and trickery as sins, we have a devotion to these virtues that comes not from ourselves but from the Lord, as explained in 18-31 above. This applies to priests, administrators, judges, merchants, and laborers - to all of us then, in our various roles and tasks.
83. By honesty we also mean integrity, righteousness, fidelity, and rectitude. A person cannot possess these virtues of himself so as to love them in themselves and for themselves. But someone who refrains from fraudulent, cunning and deceitful practices as being sins does possess them, not of himself, but from the Lord, as shown in nos. 18-31 above. Such is the case with priests, magistrates, judges, businessmen, and workmen — with everyone engaged in his occupation and work.
83. By sincerity is also meant integrity, justice, fidelity, and uprightness. Man cannot be principled in these virtues of himself, so as to love them from them and for the sake of them. But he who shuns fraud, cunning and deceit as sins, is thus principled in these virtues not of himself but from the Lord, as was shown above Nos. 18-31. This is true in regard to every one in his office and occupation, as in regard to a priest, a magistrate, a judge, a merchant and a workman.
83. Sincerity is to be understood as including integrity, justice, fidelity, and rectitude. In these no man can be from himself so as to love them from and for themselves. But he is in them who shuns as sins, fraud, cunning, and deceit, and is therefore in them not from himself but from the Lord (as shown above, n. 18-31) Such is the case with a priest, a magistrate, a judge, a trader, and with everyone in his own office and his own work.
83. Per sinceritatem etiam intelligitur integritas, justitia, fidelitas et rectitudo. In his homo non potest esse a se ita ut amet illa ex illis et propter illa: sed qui fugit fraudes, astus et dolos ut peccata, is in illis ita est non a se sed a Domino, ut supra (18-31) ostensum est: ita sacerdos, ita persona magistratus, ita judex, ita negotiator, ita operarius, ita omnis in suo functione et in suo opere.
