The Rule of St. Benedict - Chapter 5. Obedience

(1) The first step of humility is unhesitating obedience,
(2) which comes naturally to those who cherish Christ above all.
(3) Because of the holy service they have professed, or because of dread of hell and for the glory of everlasting life,
(4) they carry out the superior's order as promptly as if the command came from God himself.
(5) The Lord says of men like this: "No sooner did he hear than he obeyed me," (Ps 17[18]: 45);
(6) again, he tells teachers, "Whoever listens to you, listens to me," (Luke 10:16).
(7) Such people as these immediately put aside their own concerns, abandon their own will,
(8) and lay down whatever they have in hand leaving it unfinished. With the ready step of obedience, they follow the voice of authority in their actions.
(9) Almost at the same moment, then, as the master gives the instruction the disciple quickly puts it into practice in the fear of God; and both actions together are swiftly completed as one.

(10) It is love that impels them to pursue everlasting life;
(11) therefore, they are eager to take the narrow road of which the Lord says, "Narrow is the road that leads to life," (Matt 7:14).
(12) They no longer live by their own judgment, giving in to their whims and appetites; rather they walk according to an other's decisions and directions, choosing to live in monasteries and to have an abbot over them.
(13) Men of this resolve unquestionably conform to the saying of the Lord: "I have come not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me," (John 6:38).
