XLV. De injustitia.

XLV. De injustitia.

Anyone who loves injustice and holds onto it with both hands flatters others; but they don't listen to their teachers, they don't love the law, and they don't want to keep the commandments of the law. Instead, each one sets up their own rules as law for themselves, as long as they want. Injustice is like the absence of the moon, where it fails to shine, and where the stars do not give light; for in this night, neither the moon nor the stars can be seen, so too in injustice, no order of fairness can be found. But it is like food that is raw and tasteless, because it is unseasoned by the teaching of knowledge, and because it is bland without wisdom. For a joyful sound lacks reason, because reason has the sound of praise and the joyful music that glorifies God. In this, a faithful person magnifies their Creator with all the effort of their mind and body, in the spirit of humility and in the heart of contrition, who is worthy of praise by His creature.
