ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).
In the disposition toward things of any kind, not deeds but wishes are to be considered; and, that abominable one who has profited the good unwillingly being set aside, thanks are rather to be rendered to God, who most readily and piously makes good use of evils. For although mere exile made our Joseph a prince, yet piety does not praise the seller. But the holy Apostle Paul (Rom. IX, 3), being simply content to be anathema from Christ for his brethren, besides his own labours, is crowned even for the brethren whom he had gained; Judas, on the contrary, because persecuting Christ not out of love for the brethren, was made anathema from Christ.
