Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth. |
Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being. |
Let no one seek his own good, but that of his neighbor (the other). |
Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. |
Let no one then seek his own good, but the good of others. |
Let no one then seek his own good and advantage and profit, but [rather] each one of the other [let him seek the welfare of his neighbor]. |
Let no man, then, set his own advantage as his objective, but rather the good of his neighbour. |
No one should always be looking after his own welfare, but also that of his neighbor. |
