1 Peter 5:5-9

5LikewiseG3668, ye younger, be subjectG5293 unto the elderG4245. Yea, all of you gird yourselves with humilityG5012, to serve oneG240 another: for GodG2316 resisteth the proud, but giveth graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.

6HumbleG5013 yourselvesG4771 thereforeG3767 under the mighty handG5495 of GodG2316, that he may exaltG5312 you in due timeG2540;

7castingG1977 all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you.

8Be soberG3525, be watchful: your adversaryG476 the devilG1228, as a roaring lionG3023, walketh about, seekingG2212 whom he may devour:

9whom withstand stedfast in your faithG4102, knowing that the sameG846 sufferings are accomplished in your brethren who are in the worldG2889.
