Latin

Hinc sequitur quod Deus quatenus seipsum amat, homines amat et consequenter quod amor Dei erga homines et mentis erga Deum amor intellectualis unum et idem sit.

English (Elwes 1883)

Hence it follows that God, in so far as he loves himself, loves man, and, consequently, that the love of God towards men, and the intellectual love of the mind towards God are identical.

Modern English

It follows that God, insofar as God loves himself, loves human beings; and consequently that God's love toward human beings and the mind's intellectual love toward God are one and the same.
