GAR. Finally, what is added about the act of generation, in which men sin and offend God and are deservedly deserted by God, seems to do little for the present matter: seeing that here it is not a question of God's just judgment toward begetters, but toward the begotten; or if that just judgment be said to regard sons who are deservedly born corrupt because parents in the act of generation sinned and offended God—who does not see that from there emerges for us the conclusion to which the learned man is so hostile, that the penalties of the father's sin descend upon the sons?

Latin

GAR. Denique de actu generationis quod additur, in quo homines peccant, & Deum offendunt, & merito a Deo deseruntur, ad rem praesentem parum facere videtur: quandoquidem hic non de justo judicio Dei erga generantes, sed erga genitos agitur: aut si justum illud judicium respicere dicatur filios, qui corrupti merito nascantur, quia genitores in actu generationis peccarunt & Deum offenderunt: quis non videt inde nobis emergere conclusionem, cui tam infestus est Vir doctus, peccati paterni poenas in filios descendere?
