flagelar
Bajo la influencia de la conciencia, se flagelan ellos mismos si no cumplen con su deber. | Under the influence of conscience, they lash themselves if they don't do their duty. |
Sabéis que lo hacen, que hacen peregrinaciones y penitencias, que se flagelan literalmente, privándose de toda comodidad terrenal. | You know they make pilgrimages and do penances, and fairly wear themselves out, and in addition to these things they will shut themselves off from every earthly comfort. |
