1 Peter 5

1 He exhorteth the elders to feed their flocks, 5 the younger to obey, 8 and all to be sober, watchful, and constant in the faith: 9 to resist the cruel adversary the devil.

 5:1 ¶ The elders who are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

 5:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight [of it], not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but from a ready mind;

 5:3 Neither as being lords over [God's] heritage, but being examples to the flock.

 5:4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

 5:5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves to the elder. Yes, all [of you] be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

 5:9 Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

 5:10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle [you].

 5:11 To him [be] glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

 5:12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother to you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which ye stand.

 5:13 The [church that is] at Babylon, elected together with [you], saluteth you; and [so doth] Mark my son.

 5:14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace [be] with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
