1 Peter: Chapter 5 (web)

1 Peter 5
- 1 I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed.
- 2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
- 3 neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
- 4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
- 5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, to subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
- 6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;
- 7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
- 8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
- 9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
- 10 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
- 11 To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
- 12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
- 13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you; and so does Mark, my son.
- 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
