AC 5155 - providence or foresight?

AC 5155
. . . providence is predicated of good,
but foresight of evil;
for all good flows in from the Lord,
and therefore this is provided;
but all evil is from hell,
or from man's own which makes one with hell;
and therefore this is foreseen.
As regards evil,
Providence is nothing but the direction or determination
of evil to less evil, and as far as possible to good;
but the evil itself is foreseen.
