“Perversæ enim cogitationes separant a Deo ; probata autem virtus corripit insipientes.”
“For froward thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.”
“For crooked thoughts separate from God; And the supreme Power, when it is brought to the proof, puts to confusion the foolish:”
Unwise. He shews that their wisdom is all folly, and that they cannot withstand his power. (Calmet) — There are mortal sins of thought. (Worthington)
