English term

on the like account, in their proportion

English to Spanish Art/Literary Religion Christianity
Hello,
This is from a book by Charles Spurgeon.
He is quoting Richard Baxter (1660s).


“Take heed to yourselves,” says Baxter, “because the tempter will make his first and sharpest onset upon you.
If you will be the leaders against him, he will spare you no further than God restrains him. He bears you the greatest malice that are engaged to do him the greatest
mischief. As he hates Christ more than any of us, because Christ is the General of the field, and the ‘Captain of our salvation,’ and does more than all the rest of the world against the kingdom of darkness, so does he note the leaders under Him more than the common soldiers, on the like account, in their proportion."


Thank you!
Elena

en la misma consideración, en su justa proporción

Otra opción de redacción.

Lo de "justa", quizá lo añada por el flujo del ritmo de la prosa, y porque se adecúa a el nivel o estatus correspondiente...

Saludos cordiales.
