1 Pedro 5

2 Shepherd God’s flock among you,  * 5:2 Jr 3:15; 23:1; Jn 21:16; Ac 20:28 not overseeing  * 5:2 Other mss omit overseeing out of compulsion but willingly, as God would have you;  * 5:2 Other mss omit as God would have you not out of greed for money but eagerly; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd  * 5:4 Jn 10:11,14; 21:15–17; Heb 13:20; 1Pt 2:25 appears, you will receive the unfading crown  * 5:4 1Co 9:25; Rv 12:1 of glory. 5 In the same way, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. All of you clothe yourselves with  * 5:5 Or you tie around yourselves humility toward one another, because

God resists the proud

but gives grace to the humble.* 5:5 Pr 3:34 LXX,* 5:5 Pr 3:34; Jms 4:6
