2 Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;

3 Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

2 务要牧养你们中间的羊群， 按着 神的旨意照顾他们。不是出于勉强， 而是出于甘心； 不是因为贪财， 而是出于热诚；

3 也不是要辖制托付你们的羊群， 而是作他们的榜样。
