1 Peter 5:1-3
11Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your 2fellow elder and 3witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a 4partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed,
2shepherd 5the flock of God among you, exercising oversight 6not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and 7not for sordid gain, but with eagerness;
3nor yet as 8lording it over 9those allotted to your charge, but 10proving to be 11examples to the flock.
