2 shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly; 3 not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

2 Whangainga te kahui a te Atua i roto i a koutou; kaua e ngakaukore ina tirotiro, engari kia hihiko; kaua mo te taonga he, engari i runga i te ngakau nui;

3 Kaua ano hoki e whakatupu rangatira ki ta te Atua wahi, engari hei tauira koutou ki te kahui.
