1The elders which 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:Select 1 Peter 5:1

2Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;Select 1 Peter 5:2

3Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.Select 1 Peter 5:3

4And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.Select 1 Peter 5:4

5Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.Select 1 Peter 5:5
