Translation - Portuguese brazilian-Latin - Ao mal do crime impõe-se o mal da pena.

Efee, I asked Lilly, and she explained me that "impose to" means here "inflict(on sb)".

so we should read the sentence in this way I suppose:
"The evil of the sentence inflicts on the evil of the crime".

Am I right, Lilly?

Ok! I didn't catch the right meaning.

Yes, that's right

So, could you improve it, Efee?

Do you think "Iudicii malum pendit super criminis malum" could go?
With "pendo" = "weigh on"

?? Sorry, I don't know what you mean, dear Efee

impose/ inflict on - se inculare(ingerere), ipsum se inferre(offerre)

Now is perfect, dear!
