1 Peter 5:5-10
English Standard Version
5 Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. (A)Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for (B)“God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
6 (C)Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 (D)casting all your anxieties on him, because (E)he cares for you. 8 (F)Be sober-minded; (G)be watchful. Your (H)adversary the devil (I)prowls around (J)like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 (K)Resist him, (L)firm in your faith, knowing that (M)the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10 And (N)after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, (O)who has called you to his (P)eternal glory in Christ, will himself (Q)restore, (R)confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
