True penitence, however, cannot ever prescind from physical asceticism as well. Our whole being in fact, body and soul, (indeed the whole of nature, even animals without reason, as Holy Scripture often points out)(46) must participate actively in this religious act whereby the creature recognizes divine holiness and majesty.
Spanish[es]
Sin embargo, la verdadera penitencia no puede prescindir, en ninguna poca de una "ascesis" que incluya la mortificación del cuerpo; todo nuestro ser, cuerpo y alma (más aún, la misma naturaleza irracional, como frecuentemente nos recuerda la Escritura [46], debe participar activamente en este acto religioso, en el que la criatura reconoce la santidad y majestad divina.
Latin[la]
In germana autem paenitentiae virtute disciplina «asceseos», quae corporis etiam castigationem complectitur, nequit praetermitti, cum totus homo, anima scilicet et corpus - quin immo natura quoque rationis expers, ut saepe Sacra Scriptura memorat -(46) huic sacrae exercitationi se dedat oporteat, qua omnes creatae res sanctitatem Dei et maiestatem affirment.
