75、属于那些处于自我之爱的人的邪恶,总的来说是这些:对他人的蔑视,嫉妒,对那些不支持他们之人的不友善和由此产生的敌意,各种仇恨,报复,狡诈,欺骗,缺乏怜悯,以及残忍。哪里有这些邪恶,哪里也有对神性和神性事物,就是教会的真理和良善的蔑视。即便他们尊重这些,也只是口头上,而不是发自内心。由于这些邪恶由这个源头产生,故虚假也由这个源头产生,因为邪恶是虚假的源头。
75、爱自己之人的邪恶特征,总的来说就是,蔑视他人,嫉妒,恶意对待持不同意见者,进而产生敌意,各样仇恨,报复,狡诈,欺骗,残忍,以及虐待。如此的邪恶所在之处,还会蔑视神,蔑视教会教导的神圣真理和良善。即使他们表示尊敬,也仅仅是口头上,而非心里。此外,爱自己是这种种邪恶的源头,也是与之相应的谬误的源头,因为邪恶产生谬误。
75. The evils characteristic of people devoted to self-love are, broadly speaking, contempt for others, envy, ill will toward those who do not agree with them, a consequent hostility, and various kinds of hatred, vengefulness, guile, trickery, ruthlessness, and cruelty; and wherever we find these evils we also find a contempt for the Divine and for the truths and the good practices from the Divine that are taught by the church. If such people do pay respect to these things, it is with the mouth only and not with the heart.
Further, since self-love is the source of these evils it is also the source of corresponding falsities, since evils give rise to falsities.
75. In general, these are the bad traits we have when we are selfish: disrespect for other people, jealousy, unfriendliness and hostility toward people who do not support us, various kinds of hatred, revenge, trickery, deception, lack of sympathy, and cruelty. When we have these bad traits, we have no respect for the divine or for divine goodness and truth in religion. If we do give them any respect, it is only with our mouth and not from our heart. Since these bad traits come from selfishness, we also have the false ideas that go with them, since we get our false ideas from the bad traits that we have.
75. The evils exhibited by those in a state of self-love are, generally speaking, contempt for others, envy, unfriendliness to those who do not favour them, resulting in hostility, various kinds of hatred, vindictiveness, tricks, deceit, lack of pity, and cruelty. Where such evils exist, there is also contempt for the Deity and for the things of God, the truths and kinds of good the church teaches. If they do pay respect to them, it is only with the lips and not the heart. Since such evils arise from this source, so too do the like falsities, for evils are the source of falsities.
75. The evils belonging to those who are in the love of self, are, in general, contempt of others, envy, enmity against those by whom they are not favoured, and hostile actions on this ground; hatreds of various kinds, revenges, cunning, deceit, mercilessness, and cruelty. Where such evils exist, there is also a contempt of the Divine, and of Divine things, namely, of the goods and truths of the Church: should they honour these things, it is done only with the lips, and not with the heart. As such evils proceed from this love, similar falsities also originate thence; for falsities proceed from evils.
75. The evils which belong to those who are in the love of self, are, in general, contempt of others, envy, enmity against those who do not favor them, hostility on that account, hatreds of various kinds, revenge, cunning, deceit, unmercifulness, and cruelty; and where such evils exist, there is also contempt of the Divine, and of Divine things, which are the truths and goods of the church. If they honor these, it is only with the mouth, and not with the heart. And because such evils are thence, so there are similar falsities, for falsities are from evils.
75. Mala quae illis sunt qui in amore sui, sunt in genere contemptus aliorum, invidia, inimicitia contra illos qui sibi non favent, hostilitas inde, odia varii generis, vindictae, astus, doli, immisericordia, et crudelitas; et ubi talia mala sunt, est etiam contemptus Divini, ac divinorum quae sunt vera et bona ecclesiae; quae si honorant, est solum ore et non corde. Et quia talia mala inde sunt, etiam sunt similia falsa, nam ex malis sunt falsa.
