(He_did too the_sea cast ten cubits/elbows from lip until to lip, round in/into/on around: five cubits/elbows height his/her, and thin_rope thirty cubits/elbows was_surrounding it/this/that through surroundings.)

7.23 A labio usque ad labium. Quia a primo baptizato in nomine Jesu Christi usque ad ultimum qui in fine sæculi crediturus et baptizandus est, omnis fidelium chorus, eamdem veritatis viam ingredi, et communem debet sperare a Domino justitiæ coronam. Quinque cubitorum. Quia quidquid visu, auditu, gustu, odoratu, tactuque delinquimus, gratia Dei nobis per ablutionem vivifici fontis relaxat. Sed non sufficit præteritorum remissio peccatorum, nisi quis deinceps bonis studeat operibus; alioquin diabolus qui exierat de homine, si hunc a bonis operibus vacare viderit, multiplicius redit, et facit novissima illius pejora prioribus; unde subditur: Et resticula triginta cubitorum cingebat illud. Disciplina cœlestium præceptorum qua a voluptatibus religamur; unde: Funiculus triplex difficile rumpitur Eccl. 4., quia observatio mandatorum quæ in cordibus electorum fide, dilectione, spe supernæ retributionis firmata est, nullo potest obstaculo dissolvi. Resticula mare ambit, cum sacramentum baptismi quod accepimus, piis operibus munire studemus. Hæc triginta cubitorum est, quinquies enim seni triginta faciunt. Senario autem in quo Dominus hominem fecit, cum non esset, et refecit cum periisset, bona operatio nostra figuratur. Et sex per quinque multiplicantur, ut ad triginta perveniant, cum omnes corporis sensus divinis subjungantur imperiis. Aliter: ter deni faciunt triginta, et genus humanum post diluvium de progenie trium filiorum Nœ latitudinem totius orbis implevit. Sem quippe Asiam, Cham Africam, Japhet soboles Europam et insulas maris obtinuit. Et quia baptismi mysterium cum exsecutione operum et spe cœlestium cunctis erat nationibus ministrandum, resticula triginta cubitorum, mare in quo baptismus figurabatur, cingebat. Sed et hic dicendum, quod Dominus cum esset triginta annorum venit ad baptismum, qui quoniam suo baptismate quod tricenarius accepit baptismum nostrum consecravit, recte mare, quod nostrum baptismum figurabat, triginta cubitorum restis circumibat, ut significaretur dono illius qui baptismum sine peccato subiit, baptismum nobis in eum credentibus in remissionem peccatorum dedicari. Et sculptura. Cum prædictum sit, quod resticula triginta cubitorum mare circumierit, et nunc addatur quod sculptura hæc subter labium posita, decem cubitis ambierit, patet quia vas erat in modum phialæ expansum et diffusum, quod a triginta cubitis circuitus quos habebat in labio, usque ad decem est coactum. Sculptura autem histriata est quæ aliquas rerum historias imitatur. Unde per sculpturas histriatas quibus mare circumdatur exempla priorum temporum signantur, quæ nobis sunt intuenda, ut videamus quibus operibus ab initio sancti Deo placuerunt, qua obstinatione iniqui in sceleribus perduraverunt, quanta infelicitate reprobi perierunt. Quomodo in exordio nascentis sæculi Cain ob malitiam invidiæ damnatus, Abel justitiæ merito coronatus, Lamech ob adulterium et homicidium maledictus, Enoch ob gratiam pietatis ad paradisum reductus, Cham post diluvium ob impietatem detestatus, Sem et Japhet pro obsequio reverentiæ perpetua benedictione donati, Abraham fidei merito hæres divinæ promissionis effectus, cætera gentium multitudo pro infidelitate relicta. Adveniente quoque in carne Domino, Judæa pro perfidia repulsa, gentilitas gratia ad salutem reducta, et hujusmodi, quæ in utroque testamento solerter considerata studiosis prosunt. Ideo forsitan duo sunt ordines sculpturarum histriatarum in mari æneo, ut qui fonte baptismatis imbuti sunt, utriusque testamenti auscultent historias: ideo decem cubitorum erant in gyro, ut quoscunque in eisdem historiis deditos jussis cœlestibus obedire, et tota intentione ad superna præmia suspensos prospexerint, imitari contendant.

7.23 From lip until to lip. Because from at_first baptise in/into/on by_name Yesu of_Christ until to last who/which in/into/on fine of_the_world/of_the_ages about_to_believe and to_be_baptised it_is, everyone faithful chorus, the_same to_the_truths way/road to_enter, and common must to_hope from Master justice crown. Five cubits/elbows. Because whatever by_sight, hearing, tasting, smelling, and_touch we_fail, grace of_God us through washing life_giving of_the_spring loosens. But not/no enough passed_by forgiveness/remission of_sins/sinners, except who/any onwards/afterwards good may_desire works; otherwise the_devil who/which had_gone_out from/about man, when/but_if this_one from good works to_be_free see, more_variously returns, and he/it_does latest of_that more_evil previous; from_where/who is_added: And thin_rope thirty cubits/elbows was_surrounding it/this/that. Discipline heavenly of_the_precepts/rules which from pleasures we_are_bound; from_where/who: Rope triplex difficult is_broken Ecclesiastes. 4., because observation of_commands which in/into/on hearts of_the_elect with_faith, with_love, with_hope above(pl) of_retribution established it_is, with_no_one can obstacle to_dissolve. Thin_rope the_sea surrounds, when/with sacrament baptism that we_received, pious works to_fortify we_desire. These thirty cubits/elbows it_is, five_times because old_age thirty they_do. Sixfold however in/into/on where Master man he_did, when/with not/no was, and repaired when/with would_have_died, good(s) operation our is_figured. And six through five they_are_multiplied, as to thirty they_may_arrive, when/with everyone body sense divine they_may_be_joined_with commands. Otherwise: three-times ten_each they_do thirty, and kind/class human(n) after flood from/about race three of_children Noah width of_the_whole world he_fulfilled. Sem indeed/sure Asia, Cham Africa, Yapheth offspring Europe and islands of_the_sea got. And because baptism mystery when/with performance works and with_hope heavenly to_all was nations to_be_served, thin_rope thirty cubits/elbows, the_sea in/into/on where baptism was_being_figured, was_surrounding. But and this/here to_be_said, that Master when/with was thirty of_years he_came to baptism, who/which since/because his_own baptism that thirtyfold he_received baptism our consecrated, correctly/straight the_sea, that our baptism was_forming, thirty cubits/elbows rope was_encircling, as would_be_signified gift of_that who/which baptism without sin went, baptism us in/into/on him to_believers in/into/on remission of_sins/sinners to_be_dedicated. And carving. Since aforementioned be, that thin_rope thirty cubits/elbows the_sea may_have_encircled, and now be_added that carving these_things underneath lip placed, ten cubits/elbows may_have_gone_round, clear because vessel/utensil was in/into/on way bowl expanded and diffused, that from thirty cubits/elbows circuit which had in/into/on lip, until to ten it_is forced. Carving however histriata it_is which some things histories imitates. From_where/who through about_to_carve chamfered to_whom the_sea is_surrounded examples of_the_former times are_signed/sealed, which us are to_be_looked_at, as let’s_see to_whom works away at_first/in_the_beginning holy to_God they_liked, which obstinacy unjust in/into/on crimes they_lasted_long, how_much misfortune reprobate they_perished. How/In_what_manner in/into/on beginning being_born of_the_world/of_the_ages Cain because malice envy condemned, Abel justice deservedly crowned, Lamech because adultery and murder cursed, Enoch because grace of_piety to paradise brought_back, Cham after flood because impiety/irreverence hated, Sem and Yapheth for obey reverence perpetual blessing given, Abraham of_faith deservedly heir divine of_promise effect, the_rest of_Gentile_nations multitude/crowd for infidelity abandoned. Arriving too in/into/on flesh/meat Master, Yudea for treachery rejected/repulsed, Gentile grace to health brought_back, and of_this_kind, which in/into/on both testament cleverly considered eager they_are_useful. Therefore/For_that_reason perhaps two are in_orders about_to_carve chamfered in/into/on of_the_sea bronze, as who/which source of_baptism imbued are, of_both testament they_may_listen histories: therefore/for_that_reason ten cubits/elbows they_were in/into/on turn_around, as whoever in/into/on to_the_same histories given_up ordered heavenly to_obey, and the_whole intention to heavenly prizes hung_up they_may_have_foreseen, to_imitate they_may_contend.
