1 Peter 5
King James Version
1 Peter 5
King James Version
5 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:
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;
3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.
13 The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.
14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Serve God Willingly
5 (A)Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your (B)fellow elder and (C)witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a (D)partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed, 2 shepherd (E)the flock of God among you, exercising oversight (F)not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and (G)not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; 3 nor yet as (H)lording it over [a]those allotted to your charge, but [b]proving to be (I)examples to the flock. 4 And when the Chief (J)Shepherd appears, you will receive the (K)unfading [c](L)crown of glory. 5 (M)You younger men, likewise, (N)be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with (O)humility toward one another, for (P)God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
6 Therefore (Q)humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, 7 casting all your (R)anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. 8 (S)Be of sober spirit, (T)be on the alert. Your adversary, (U)the devil, prowls around like a roaring (V)lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 [d](W)But resist him, (X)firm in your faith, knowing that (Y)the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your [e]brethren who are in the world. 10 After you have suffered (Z)for a little while, the (AA)God of all grace, who (AB)called you to His (AC)eternal glory in Christ, will Himself (AD)perfect, (AE)confirm, strengthen and establish you. 11 (AF)To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.
12 Through (AG)Silvanus, our faithful brother [f](for so I regard him), (AH)I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is (AI)the true grace of God. (AJ)Stand firm in it! 13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you greetings, and so does my son, (AK)Mark. 14 (AL)Greet one another with a kiss of love.
(AM)Peace be to you all who are in Christ.

Förmaningar
5 (A) Nu uppmanar jag de äldste bland er, jag som själv är en äldste och ett vittne till Kristi lidanden och som också har del i den härlighet som ska uppenbaras: 2 (B) var herdar för Guds hjord hos er och vaka över den, inte av tvång utan frivilligt, så som Gud vill[a], inte för egen vinning utan med hängivet hjärta. 3 (C) Uppträd inte som herrar över dem som anförtrotts er, utan var föredömen för hjorden. 4 (D) När den högste herden sedan uppenbarar sig, ska ni få härlighetens segerkrans som aldrig vissnar.
5 (E) Likaså ni yngre, underordna er de äldre[b]. Och ni alla, klä er i ödmjukhet mot varandra, för Gud står emot de högmodiga men ger nåd åt de ödmjuka.[c] 6 (F) Ödmjuka er därför under Guds mäktiga hand, så ska han upphöja er när tiden är inne. 7 (G) Och kasta alla era bekymmer på honom, för han har omsorg om er.
Var vakna
8 (H) Var nyktra och vakna. Er fiende djävulen går omkring som ett rytande lejon och söker efter någon att sluka. 9 (I) Stå emot honom, orubbliga i tron, och tänk på att era bröder här i världen går igenom samma lidanden. 10 (J) Efter en liten tids lidande ska all nåds Gud, som har kallat er till sin eviga härlighet i Kristus, upprätta, stödja, styrka och befästa er. 11 Hans är makten i evighet. Amen.
Avslutning
12 (K) Med hjälp av Silvanus[d], som jag anser vara en trofast broder, har jag skrivit kort till er för att förmana[e] er och bekräfta att detta är Guds sanna nåd. Stå fasta i den.[f]
13 (L) Församlingen i Babylon[g], utvald liksom ni, hälsar till er. Det gör även min son Markus[h]. 14 (M) Hälsa varandra med kärlekens kyss[i]. Frid vare med er alla i Kristus.

Consejos a los ancianos de la iglesia
5 Por tanto, a los ancianos entre vosotros(A), exhorto yo, anciano como ellos(B) y testigo de los padecimientos de Cristo(C), y también participante de la gloria que ha de ser revelada(D): 2 pastoread el rebaño de Dios entre vosotros(E), velando por él, no por obligación(F), sino voluntariamente, como quiere Dios; no por la avaricia del dinero[a](G), sino con sincero deseo; 3 tampoco como teniendo señorío(H) sobre los que os han sido confiados[b], sino demostrando ser[c] ejemplos del rebaño(I). 4 Y cuando aparezca el Príncipe de los pastores[d](J), recibiréis la corona inmarcesible(K) de gloria(L). 5 Asimismo, vosotros los más jóvenes, estad sujetos a los mayores[e](M); y todos, revestíos de humildad en vuestro trato mutuo(N), porque Dios resiste a los soberbios, pero da gracia a los humildes(O).
Consejos para la iglesia
6 Humillaos(P), pues, bajo la poderosa mano de Dios, para que Él os exalte a su debido tiempo, 7 echando toda vuestra ansiedad sobre Él, porque Él tiene cuidado de vosotros(Q). 8 Sed de espíritu sobrio(R), estad alerta(S). Vuestro adversario, el diablo(T), anda al acecho como león rugiente(U), buscando a quien devorar. 9 Pero resistidle[f](V) firmes en la fe(W), sabiendo que las mismas experiencias de sufrimiento(X) se van cumpliendo en vuestros hermanos[g] en todo el mundo. 10 Y después de que hayáis sufrido un poco de tiempo(Y), el Dios de toda gracia(Z), que os llamó(AA) a su gloria eterna en Cristo(AB), Él mismo os perfeccionará(AC), afirmará(AD), fortalecerá y establecerá. 11 A Él sea el dominio por los siglos de los siglos(AE). Amén.
Saludos finales
12 Por conducto(AF) de Silvano, nuestro fiel hermano (porque así[h] lo considero), os he escrito brevemente(AG), exhortando y testificando que esta es la verdadera gracia de Dios(AH). Estad firmes en ella(AI). 13 La[i] que está en Babilonia, elegida juntamente con vosotros, os saluda, y también mi hijo Marcos(AJ). 14 Saludaos unos a otros con un beso de amor fraternal(AK).
La paz sea con todos vosotros, los que estáis en Cristo(AL).

To the Elders and the Flock
5 To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder(A) and a witness(B) of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed:(C) 2 Be shepherds of God’s flock(D) that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be;(E) not pursuing dishonest gain,(F) but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over(G) those entrusted to you, but being examples(H) to the flock. 4 And when the Chief Shepherd(I) appears, you will receive the crown of glory(J) that will never fade away.(K)
5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves(L) to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility(M) toward one another, because,
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.(O) 7 Cast all your anxiety on him(P) because he cares for you.(Q)
8 Be alert and of sober mind.(R) Your enemy the devil prowls around(S) like a roaring lion(T) looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him,(U) standing firm in the faith,(V) because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.(W)
10 And the God of all grace, who called you(X) to his eternal glory(Y) in Christ, after you have suffered a little while,(Z) will himself restore you and make you strong,(AA) firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.(AB)
Final Greetings
12 With the help of Silas,[b](AC) whom I regard as a faithful brother, I have written to you briefly,(AD) encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand fast in it.(AE)
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you her greetings, and so does my son Mark.(AF) 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love.(AG)
Peace(AH) to all of you who are in Christ.
