The Rule of St. Benedict - Chapter 4. The Tools For Good Works

(1) First of all, "love the Lord God with your whole heart, your whole soul and all your strength,"
(2) and, "love your neighbor as yourself." (Matt 22:37-39; Mark 12:30-31; Luke 10:27).
(3) Then the following: "You are not to kill,
(4) not to commit adultery;
(5) you are not to steal
(6) nor to covet," (Rom 13:9);
(7) "you are not to bear false witness," (Matt 19:18; Mark 10:19; Luke 18:20).
(8) "You must honor everyone," (1 Pet 2:17),
(9) and, "never do to another what you do not want done to yourself," (Tob 4:16; Matt 7:12; Luke 6:31).

(10) "Renounce yourself in order to follow Christ," (Matt 16:24; Luke 9:23);
(11) "discipline your body," (1 Cor 9:27);
(12) do not pamper yourself,
(13) but love fasting.
(14) You must relieve the lot of the poor,
(15) "clothe the naked,
(16) visit the sick," (Matt 25:36),
(17) and bury the dead.
(18) Go to help the troubled 19and console the sorrowing.
