I PETER
Chapter 5
I Pe | AKJV | 5:1 | The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:2 | Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:4 | And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a crown of glory that fades not away. | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:5 | Likewise, you younger, submit yourselves to the elder. Yes, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resists the proud, and gives grace to the humble. | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:6 | Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:8 | Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour: | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:9 | Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brothers that are in the world. | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:10 | But the God of all grace, who has called us to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that you have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you. | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:12 | By Silvanus, a faithful brother to you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein you stand. | |
I Pe | AKJV | 5:13 | The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, salutes you; and so does Marcus my son. | |
