1 Peter 5:6-11
6 You are under God's power. Do not be proud, so that at the right time he may put you into a higher place.
7 Turn all your troubles over to him, because he cares for you and is watching over you.
8 Keep awake! Watch! Your enemy the devil is walking around like a growling lion. He is looking for someone to catch.
9 Fight against the devil. Be strong because you believe. Remember that your brothers all over the world suffer the same kind of trouble as you.
10 God gives all blessings. He has called you through Christ to be great with him for ever. When you have suffered for a short time, he will make you all right. He will make you strong and steady.
11 He has power for ever. Yes, he has!
