Life70.由于邪恶和良善是两种对立事物，就像地狱与天堂，或魔鬼与主一样，所以可推知，一个人若避恶如罪，就会进入与邪恶对立的良善。与“杀人”所表示的邪恶相对立的良善就是对邻之爱的良善。
70. Now, since what is evil and what is good are two opposite things, like hell and heaven or like the Devil and the Lord, it follows that if we turn our backs on something evil as a sin we come into something good that is the opposite of that evil. The goodness that is opposite to the evil meant by killing is loving our neighbor.

Now, because evil and good are two opposites, altogether like hell and heaven, or like the devil and the Lord, it follows that if a person refrains from some evil as a sin, he comes into the goodness opposite the evil. The goodness opposite the evil meant by murder is the goodness of love for the neighbor.
70. Now as evil and good are two opposites, precisely like hell and heaven, or like the devil and the Lord, it follows that if man shuns an evil as sin, he comes into the good that is an opposite to the evil. The good opposite to the evil which is meant by murder, is the good of love towards the neighbour.

70. Nunc quia malum et bonum sunt duo opposita, prorsus sicut infernum et caelum, aut sicut diabolus et Dominus, sequitur quod si homo fugit malum sicut peccatum, veniat in bonum malo oppositum; bonum Oppositum malo quod intelligitur per homicidium, est bonum amoris erga proximum.
