1 Peter 5
- 1 So I exhort the Elders among you--I who am their fellow Elder and have been an eye-witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and am also a sharer in the glory which is soon to be revealed.
- 2 Be shepherds of God's flock which is among you. Exercise the oversight not reluctantly but eagerly, in accordance with the will of God; not for base gain but with cheerful minds;
- 3 not lording it over your Churches but proving yourselves patterns for the flock to imitate.
- 4 And then, when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the never-withering wreath of glory.
- 5 In the same way you younger men must submit to your elders; and all of you must gird yourselves with humility towards one another, for God sets Himself against the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
- 6 Humble yourselves therefore beneath the mighty hand of God, so that at the right time He may set you on high.
- 7 Throw the whole of your anxiety upon Him, because He Himself cares for you.
- 8 Curb every passion, and be on the alert. Your great accuser, the Devil, is going about like a roaring lion to see whom he can devour.
- 9 Withstand him, firm in your faith; knowing that your brethren in other parts of the world are passing through just the same experiences.
- 10 And God, the giver of all grace, who has called you to share His eternal glory, through Christ, after you have suffered for a short time, will Himself make you perfect, firm, and strong.
- 11 To Him be all power unto the Ages of the Ages! Amen.
- 12 I send this short letter by Silas, our faithful brother--for such I regard him--in order to encourage you, and to bear witness that what I have told you is the true grace of God. In it stand fast.
- 13 The Church in Babylon, chosen like yourselves by God, sends greetings, and so does Mark my son.
- 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be with all of you who are in Christ.
