1 Peter 5:2-8

2Give a shepherd’s care to God’s flock among you, exercising oversight not merely as a duty but willingly under God’s direction, not for shameful profit but eagerly.

3And do not lord it over those entrusted to you, but be examples to the flock.

4Then when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that never fades away.

5In the same way, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.

6And God will exalt you in due time, if you humble yourselves under his mighty hand

7by casting all your cares on him because he cares for you.

8Be sober and alert. Your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is on the prowl looking for someone to devour.
