1 The elders therefore among you I exhort, who am a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, who am also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: RV1885 — 1Peter 5:1
2 Tend the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not of constraint, but willingly, according unto God; nor yet for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; RV1885 — 1Peter 5:2
3 neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you, but making yourselves ensamples to the flock. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:3
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall be manifested, ye shall receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:4

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time; RV1885 — 1Peter 5:6
7 casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:7
8 Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: RV1885 — 1Peter 5:8
9 whom withstand stedfast in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are accomplished in your brethren who are in the world. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:9
10 And the God of all grace, who called you unto his eternal glory in Christ, after that ye have suffered a little while, shall himself perfect, stablish, strengthen you. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:10
11 To him be the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:11
12 By Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I account him, I have written unto you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God: stand ye fast therein. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:12
13 She that is in Babylon, elect together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Mark my son. RV1885 — 1Peter 5:13
