XLIII. Laudes angelorum in judiciis Dei.
XLIII. Laudes angelorum in judiciis Dei.
But the care of the angels inspects the same writings; the power of God gives them what they need, just as a mighty trumpet resounds in the harmony of creation, echoing in one sound. For when they contemplate the will of God, they receive from the divine virtue what they need, and in strength and fullness, they joyfully offer praises to God. For in all of God's judgments, they say nothing but praises to God. Because His judgments are true and just, as John heard in his Revelation, as it is written.
Read the original Latin
Sed cura angeli eadem scripta inspiciunt, virtus Dei ipsis dat, quod VelUt fortissiraa tuba, in orani gencre rausicorura, uno sono resonant; quoniam cum ipsi voluntatera Dei considerant, a virtute etiara Dei accipiunt, quod in fortitudine et in plenitudine oraniura gaudiorura unaniraiter laudes Deo referunt.
Nam in omnibus judiciis Dei nihil aliud quam laudes Deo dicunt.
Quia orania judicia eius vera et justa sunt, velut eliara Joannes in Apocalypsi sua audivit, ut scriptum est •).
