747、“两个两个”表示相辅相成的事物。谁都能从以下事实清楚看出这一点,即:它们是成双成对的。它们若非像真理与良善,或邪恶与虚假那样相辅相成,就不可能成双成对。事实上,一切事物都含有如真理与良善,或邪恶与虚假那样的婚姻或结合,因为理解力与意愿,或理解力的事物与意愿的事物之间存在一个婚姻。实际上,每一个事物都含有自己的一个婚姻或结合;没有这种婚姻或结合,它不可能持续存在,或说它的持续存在就依赖于该婚姻或结合。

[NCE]747. Anyone can see the symbolism of two each, two each, as elements that answer to each other, by considering that such things are pairs. They cannot be pairs unless they answer to each other as do truth and goodness, and evil and falsity. All things display something like a marriage or coupling within them, like the match of truth with goodness or of evil with falsity, because the intellect is married to the will. To put it another way, ideas in the intellect are married to the intentions of the will. In fact everything has its partner or mate, without which it could never remain in existence.
Potts(1905-1910) 747
747. That "two and two" signify things that correspond, anyone may see from their being pairs; they cannot be pairs unless they correspond to each other, as do goods and truths, and evils and falsities. For there is in all things a semblance of a marriage, or a coupling, as of truths with goods, and of evils with falsities, because there is a marriage of the understanding with the will, or of the things of the understanding with those of the will. And indeed everything has its marriage or its coupling, without which it could not possibly subsist.
Elliott(1983-1999) 747
747. 'Two and two' means complementary things. This may become clear to anyone from the fact that they are pairs. It is impossible for them to be pairs unless they are complementary to one another as truths and goods are, or evils and falsities. In fact all things contain the likeness of a marriage or a coupling together, as in the case of truths to goods, or of evils to falsities, because of the marriage of the understanding to the will, or of things of the understanding to those of the will. Indeed everything contains a marriage or coupling together of its own on which its very continuance depends.
Latin(1748-1756) 747
747. Quod 'bina bina' significent correspondentia, constare cuivis potest ex eo quod sint paria; paria non possunt esse nisi sibi correspondeant, sicut sibi vera et bona, mala et falsa; omnium enim est conjugii instar, seu copulatio, ut verorum cum bonis, et malorum cum falsis, quia est conjugium intellectus cum voluntate, seu intellectualium cum voluntariis, et quidem unicuivis rei suum est conjugium, seu sua copulatio, absque qua nusquam subsistit.
