About the Elders

5Therefore, as a fellow elder and witness to the sufferings of the Messiah, and also a participant in the glory about to be revealed, I exhort the elders among you:G4245G1722G5213G3870G3588G4850G2532G3144G3804G5547G2532G2844G1391G3195G601
2shepherd God's flock among you, not overseeing out of compulsion but freely, according to God's [will]; not for the money but eagerly;G4165G4168G2316G1722G5213G1983G3361G317G235G1596G3366G147G235G4290
3not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.G3366G5613G2634G2819G235G1096G5179G4168
4And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.G2532G750G5319G2865G4735G1391G262
5Likewise, you younger men, be subject to the elders. And all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.G3668G3501G5293G4245G1161G3956G5293G240G1463G5012G3754G2316G498G5244G1161G1325G5485G5011
6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time,G5013G3767G5259G2900G5495G2316G2443G5312G5209G1722G2540
7casting all your care upon Him, because He cares about you.G1977G3956G5216G3308G1909G846G3754G846G3199G4012G5216

Conclusion

8Be sober! Be on the alert! Your adversary the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour.G3525G1127G3754G5216G476G1228G5613G5612G3023G4043G2212G5101G2666
9Resist him, firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your brothers in the world.G3739G436G4731G4102G1492G846G3804G2005G5216G81G1722G2889
10Now the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will personally restore, establish, strengthen, and support you after you have suffered a little.G1161G2316G3956G5485G3588G2564G2248G1519G846G166G1391G1722G5547G2424G3958G3641G846G2675G5209G2675G4741G4599G2311
11To Him be the dominion forever. Amen.G846G1391G2532G2904G1519G165G165G281
12Through Silvanus, whom I consider a faithful brother, I have written briefly, encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Take your stand in it!G1223G4610G4103G80G5213G5613G3049G1125G1223G3641G3870G2532G1957G5026G1511G227G5485G2316G1519G3739G2476
13She who is in Babylon, also chosen, sends you greetings, as does Mark, my son.G1722G897G4899G782G5209G2532G3138G3450G5207
14Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to all of you who are in Christ.G782G240G1722G5370G26G1515G5213G3956G1722G5547G2424G281
