Kitap 1
12.26
And those who have committed numerous wrongs, or such as those from which they themselves are suffering; for it seems almost an act of justice that a man should suffer a wrong such as he had been accustomed to make others suffer; if, for instance, one were to assault a man who was in the habit of outraging others.αἰκία (assault) was a less serious offence than ὕβρις (wanton outrage).
12.27
And those who have already injured us, or intended, or intend, or are about to do so; for in such a case vengeance is both pleasant and honorable, and seems to be almost an act of justice.
12.28
And those whom we wrongοἷς i.e. supplying ἀδικουμένοις, by whose being wronged. οὓς has been suggested, i.e. supplying ἀδικοῦντες, wronging whom. in order to ingratiate ourselves with our friends, or persons whom we admire or love, or our masters, in a word, those by whom our life is ruled.
