1 Peter 5:1-5
Wycliffe Bible

5 Therefore I, an even-elder man, and a witness of Christ's passions, which also am a communer of that glory, that shall be showed in time to come; beseech the elder men, that be among you,[a]

2 feed ye the flock of God, that is among you, and purvey ye, not as constrained, but willfully, by God [purveying not constrainingly, but willfully, after God]; not for love of foul winning, but willfully,

3 neither as having lordship in the clergy, but that ye be made ensample to the flock, of will.[b]

4 And when the prince of shepherds shall appear, ye shall receive the crown of glory, that may never fade [that shall never fade].

5 Also, ye young men, be ye subject to elder men, and all show ye together meekness[c]; for the Lord withstandeth proud men, but he giveth grace to meek men.
