1 # The elders <4245> which are among <1722> you <5213> I exhort <3870> (5719), who <3588> am also an elder <4850>, and <2532> a witness <3144> of the sufferings <3804> of Christ <5547>, and also <2532> a partaker <2844> of the glory <1391> that shall <3195> (5723) be revealed <601> (5745):
2 Feed <4165> (5657) the flock <4168> of God <2316> which is among <1722> you <5213>, taking the oversight <1983> (5723) thereof, not <3361> by constraint <317>, but <235> willingly <1596>; not <3366> for filthy lucre <147>, but <235> of a ready mind <4290>;
3 Neither <3366> as <5613> being lords over <2634> (5723) God's heritage <2819>, but <235> being <1096> (5740) ensamples <5179> to the flock <4168>.
4 And <2532> when the chief Shepherd <750> shall appear <5319> (5685), ye shall receive <2865> (5695) a crown <4735> of glory <1391> that fadeth not away <262>.

Yea <1161> , all <3956> of you be subject <5293> (5746) one to another <240>, and be clothed <1463> (5663) with humility <5012>: for <3754> God <2316> resisteth <498> (5731) the proud <5244>, and <1161> giveth <1325> (5719) grace <5485> to the humble <5011>.
6 Humble yourselves <5013> (5682) therefore <3767> under <5259> the mighty <2900> hand <5495> of God <2316>, that <2443> he may exalt <5312> (5661) you <5209> in <1722> due time <2540>:

9 Whom <3739> resist <436> (5628) stedfast <4731> in the faith <4102>, knowing <1492> (5761) that the same <846> afflictions <3804> are accomplished <2005> (5745) in your <5216> brethren <81> that are in <1722> the world <2889>.

11 To him <846> be glory <1391> and <2532> dominion <2904> for <1519> ever <165> and ever <165>. Amen <281>.
12 By <1223> Silvanus <4610>, a faithful <4103> brother <80> unto you <5213>, as <5613> I suppose <3049> (5736), I have written <1125> (5656) briefly <1223> <3641>, exhorting <3870> (5723), and <2532> testifying <1957> (5723) that this <5026> is <1511> (5750) the true <227> grace <5485> of God <2316> wherein <1519> <3739> ye stand <2476> (5758).
13 The church that is at <1722> Babylon <897>, elected together with <4899> you, saluteth <782> (5736) you <5209>; and <2532> so doth Marcus <3138> my <3450> son <5207>.
14 Greet ye <782> (5663) one another <240> with <1722> a kiss <5370> of charity <26>. Peace <1515> be with you <5213> all <3956> that are in <1722> Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>. Amen <281>.
