                                   Chapter 3
                                   Renewal


                                            a
            If we do not regard powerful men highly
            People will not fight for power
                                    b
            If we do not value rare goods
            People will not become thieves
                                   c
            If we display desirable things
            We bring confusion in our hearts

                                             d
            Thus, one who is with the Spirit leads by:
            Clearing our minds under the law
            And renewing our hearts under grace
            Weakening our selfish ambition
                                     e
            And strengthening our core with love

            The Spirit steers us away from our desires    f
            So those who cleverly scheme have no power over us

                  g
            Be still
            And everything will be in order
