Now, there are some that have understood

that this state of happiness

the raising of the spirit or the soul and their consignation to happiness or misery,

according to the words which have been spoken.

that this first resurrection, which is spoken of in this manner,

can be the resurrection of the souls

and their consignation to happiness or misery.

Ye cannot suppose that this is what it meaneth.

The one raised to happiness according to his desires of happiness,

and the other to evil according to his desires of evil;

for as he has desired to do evil all the day long

even so shall he have his reward of evil when the night cometh.

Do not suppose, because it has been spoken concerning restoration,

that ye shall be restored from sin to happiness.

Behold, I say unto you,

wickedness never was happiness.
