CV. Poena eorum qui seipsos occiderunt.
CV. Poena eorum qui seipsos occiderunt.
But I didn't see the souls of those who threw themselves to their deaths, nor the punishments they deserved, yet I knew they were in the pit of hell. Because they had killed themselves, they suffered the torment of robbers, and since they did not repent for this act, they were submerged in the pit of hell.
Read the original Latin
Animas autem illorum qui seipsos in mortem praecipitaverunt, et poenas earum non videbam, scd eas in puteo gehennae esse sciebam.
Quia namque seipsos occiderant, cruciatus latronum habebant, et quoniam de hoc facto poenitentiam non habuerunt, in puteo gehennae submersae fuerunt.
