web@1Peter:5:2 @Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
web@1Peter:5:3 @neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

web@1Peter:5:6 @Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;
web@1Peter:5:7 @casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
web@1Peter:5:8 @Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
web@1Peter:5:9 @Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
web@1Peter:5:10 @But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
web@1Peter:5:11 @To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
