1160:1
VERS. 4.— Post eum rugiet sonitus. 39. Afflante et lucente gratia, pœnitentiæ gemitus et rugitus audiuntur. -Quem euim Dominus illustrando repleverit, ejus vitam proculdubio in lamentum vertit; atque illuminatæ menti quo magis aeterna supplicia insinuat, eo haue a durius de transacta nequitia gemitibus fatigat; et dolet homo quod fuit, quia bonum jam incipit videre quod non fuit; odit qualem se fuisse meminit. amat qualem se esse debuisse cognoscit,etsolam jam poenitentiae amaritudinem diligit, quia Mute oonsiderat in quantis voluptatibus sua delectatione peccavit. Bene ergo dicitur:
第四節。——「在他以後必有響聲吼叫。」39. 當恩典吹拂並照耀時,便聽見悔改的哀歎與吼叫。——因為主藉光照所充滿的人,他無疑把那人的生命轉為哀哭;他越把永刑注入那被光照的心,就越嚴厲地以哀歎叫它為過去的邪惡而困憊;人為自己從前的光景而憂傷,因為他如今開始看見那從前所沒有的善;他恨惡自己所記得曾是的樣子,愛慕自己所認識本當是的樣子,如今唯獨喜愛悔改的苦楚,因為他默默思量自己曾以何等的歡愉在何等眾多的逸樂中犯了罪。故此經上恰當地說:
Verse 4. — 'After him a sound shall roar.' 39. When grace breathes upon and shines forth, the groanings and roarings of repentance are heard. — For whomsoever the Lord shall have filled by illuminating, his life without doubt he turns into lamentation; and the more he instills eternal punishments into the illumined mind, the more harshly does he wear it out with groanings over its past wickedness; and a man grieves for what he was, because he now begins to see the good which he was not; he hates what he remembers himself to have been, he loves what he knows he ought to have been, and now loves the bitterness of repentance alone, because he silently considers in how many pleasures he sinned by his own delight. Well therefore is it said:
1160:2
Post eum rugiet sonilus, quia cum mentem Deus ingreditur, constat proculdubio quod mox poenitentiae gemitus sequatur, ut ei jam salubriter fiere libeat, quæ prius de iniquitatibus nenda jucunditate gaudebat. [Vet. XVI.] Sed quo uberius culpa fletur, b eo altius cognito veritatis attingitur, quia ad videndum internum lumen polluta dudum conscientia lacrymis baptizata renovatur. Unde post paenitentiae rugitum aPte subjuogHur:.
「在他以後必有響聲吼叫」,因為當神進入心中時,毫無疑問,悔改的哀歎隨即接踵而至,好叫它如今樂意為那先前曾以罪孽之惡樂而歡喜的事,作有益的哭泣。但那過犯越是豐豐地被哀哭,真理的知識就越深地被領受;因為為要看見那內在之光,那長久被玷污的良心便被眼淚所洗,得以更新。故此在悔改的吼叫之後,經上恰當地接著說:
'After him a sound shall roar,' because when God enters the mind, it is established beyond doubt that soon the groaning of repentance follows, so that it may now please it to weep wholesomely over those things over which it before rejoiced with the wicked mirth of iniquities. But the more abundantly the fault is wept for, the more deeply is the knowledge of truth attained, because, in order to see the inward light, the conscience long polluted is renewed, baptized with tears. Whence after the roaring of repentance it is aptly subjoined:
