“Nyota ni kipaji, kipawa, takdiri, karama, au uweza; ni kiashiria cha rohoni kinachoonyesha mtu atakuwa nani baadaye, mafanikio ya mtu, au takdiri ya maisha ya mwanadamu. Unabii na nyota ya ufalme ni kibali cha Mungu katika maisha ya mtu. Kupata kibali hicho, tembea na watu sahihi katika maisha yako (tembea na watu ambao Mungu amekuchagulia kushika funguo za takdiri ya maisha yako). Tamka na kukiri kibali cha Mungu katika maisha yako yote. Panda mbegu za kibali cha Mungu katika udongo wa maisha yako. Jifunze kutenda mema bila malipo, kwani wema ni mbegu ya kibali cha Mungu. Jali mambo ya ufalme wa Mungu.”

Le diable (qui a un costume sport et d茅clare volontiers que le cynisme est la grande tentation de l'intelligence) lui dit avec douceur : 芦 Mais les biens de ce monde, tu les as. C'est 脿 Dieu qu'il faut demander ce qui te manque - si tu crois que quelque chose te manque. Tu feras march茅 avec Dieu et, pour les biens de l'autre monde, tu lui vendras ton corps. 禄
