1 The elders among you I beseech, a fellow elder, and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a participator of the glory which is about to be revealed: 2 Tend the flock of God which among you, inspecting, not by force, but voluntarily; neither occupied in sordid gain, but of a ready will; 3 Neither as ruling over the portions obtained by lot, but being types of the flock. 1 Peter 5:1-3, Smith's Literal Translation.
