For the rest, the learned man seems to have praised against himself those words of the Apostle, the judgments of God are inscrutable, and his ways past finding out. For it is clear that in that place by God's judgments are not understood God's works by which he inflicts punishment from the reason of vindicative justice, as the learned man wills: for neither was it a matter of such works in that place, nor are such judgments accustomed to be past finding out—seeing that their reason in God's justice and in men's sins is open.

Latin

Caeterum contra se vir doctus laudasse videtur verba illa Apostoli, judicia Dei sunt inscrutabilia, & viae eius impervestigabiles. Constat enim eo loco per judicia Dei non intelligi opera Dei, quibus poenam ex ratione justitiae vindicatricis irrogat, ut vult vir doctus: nam neque de eiusmodi operibus agebatur eo loco, neque eiusmodi judicia solent esse impervestigabilia: quippe quorum ratio in Dei justitia, & peccatis hominum est aperta.
