XXV. The latter table with six precepts prescribes duties toward the neighbor, which Christ comprehended in the sum of charity: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

XXVIII. Duties that regard actions around the order of human society are prescribed by the fifth precept, so that some preside and others are subject. There follow the precepts concerning life, marriage, goods, and speech: you shall not kill, commit adultery, steal, bear false witness, or covet.

XXXIV. Thus far were the duties that the moral law prescribes.

Latin

XXV. Posterior tabula sex praeceptis officia erga proximum praescribit, quae Christus summa charitatis complexus est: Diliges proximum tuum sicut teipsum. XXVIII. Officia quae actiones circa ordinem humanae societatis respiciunt quinto praecepto praescribuntur, ut alii praesint, alii subsint. Sequuntur praecepta de vita, conjugio, bonis, & loquela: non occides, non moechaberis, non furaberis, non falsum testimonium dices, non concupisces. XXXIV. Hucusque fuere officia quae lex moralis praescribit.
