591:1
Idid. — Et auferetur spiritu oris sui. 56. Propter laxata linguae frena gravissime torquens dus. — Superbus etenim quisque quo in hac vita plus valet, eo sibi linguae frena audacius relaxat, ut lo- quatur perversa quaelibet, nullum de verbis suis me- tuat, istos contumeliis feriat, illos maledictionibus jaculetur. Nonnunquam vero in blasphemiam contra conditorem rapitur, sicut de talibus per Psalmistam dicitur: Posuerunt in coelum os suum, et lingua eorum i transivit super terram ( Psal. lxxii, 9): j Unde et dives in igne positus, stillari sibi aquam ex digito Laxari in linguam postulat ( Luc. xvi, 24). Qua ex re intelligitur quia ubi amplius peccaverat, ibi atrocius ardebat.
Ibid.—And he shall be taken away by the breath of his own mouth. 56. He is most grievously tormented on account of the loosened reins of his tongue.—For every proud man, the more he prevails in this life, the more boldly does he loosen the reins of his tongue to himself, so that he may speak whatever perverse things, fear nothing from his own words, strike these with insults, and hurl curses upon those. Sometimes indeed he is carried off into blasphemy against his Maker, as is said of such through the Psalmist: They have set their mouth against heaven, and their tongue has passed over the earth (Ps. lxxii, 9). Whence also the rich man, placed in the fire, asks that water be dropped upon his tongue from a finger (Luke xvi, 24). From which it is understood that where he had sinned more, there he burned more terribly.
同上——他必被自己口中的氣息除滅。56. 他因舌頭放鬆的韁繩而受最沉痛的折磨。——因為每個驕傲人在今生越是得勢，就越放膽向自己鬆開舌頭的韁繩，以致他可說出任何邪惡之言，對自己的言語毫不懼怕，用辱罵擊打這些人，用咒詛攻擊那些人。有時他甚至被擄去褻瀆他的創造主，正如藉詩人論到這等人所說的：他們把口舌置於天上，他們的舌頭走遍全地（詩篇七十二9）。故此那財主也在火中，求人從指頭滴水在他舌頭上（路加福音十六24）。由此可知，他在何處犯罪越多，就在何處燒得越可怕。
591:2
Recte ergo nunc dicitur: Et auferetur Spi- ritu oris sui, quia eo percussionis sententiam accepit, quo oris sui spiritum sub divina formidine non restrinxit. Sequitur:
Rightly, therefore, is it now said: And he shall be taken away by the breath of his own mouth, because he received the sentence of punishment by that very thing whereby he did not restrain the breath of his mouth under the fear of God. There follows:
因此，如今正確地說：他必被自己口中的氣息除滅，因為他正是憑那不肯在敬畏神之下約束口中氣息之事，領受了刑罰的判決。接著說：
