8 Be abstemious, watch; for your adversary the accuser, as a roaring lion, walks around, seeking whom he might swallow down: 9 Whom resist firm in the faith, knowing that the same of sufferings are completed by your brotherhood in the world. 10 And the God of all grace, having called us to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, may he put you in proper order, having suffered a little time, may he support you, make firm, lay the foundation. 11 To him the glory and the strength for the time of times. Amen. 12 By Silvanus, to you the faithful brother, as I reckon, I wrote briefly, beseeching, and bearing testimony this to be the true grace of God in which ye stand. 13 The chosen together in Babylon, greet you; also Marcus my son. 14 Greet one another in a kiss of love. Peace to all you which in Christ Jesus. Amen. 1 Peter 5:8-14, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
