1 Peter 5:1-4 ▼

1 Elders who [are] among you, I exhort [you], [as] a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and a partaker of the glory about to be revealed,

2 feed the flock of God that [is] among you, overseeing not by compulsion, but willingly, neither for shameful gain, but eagerly,

3 neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but becoming patterns for the flock,

4 and the Chief Shepherd having appeared, you will receive the unfading garland of glory.
