The first two sentences mean that because there are these two principles, two names may be established. The next two sentences directly demonstrate the benefits. "Those who take the Void as essential" refers to the small capacities of the two vehicles, whose nature originally delights in cessation; relying on the name to seek the reality, they enter into [nirvāṇa] without remainder. "Those who cherish virtue" refers to the great persons of the six perfections, whose nature delights in establishing virtue; relying on the name to seek the reality, they look up to [nirvāṇa] with remainder. The last two sentences: first, because the holy teachings are quantitative authorities; second, because they are the tracks trodden by past sages.
