2 shepherd (A)the flock of God among you, overseeing (B)not under compulsion, but willingly, according to God; and (C)not for dishonest gain, but with eagerness; 3 nor yet as (D)lording it over [a]those allotted to you, but being (E)examples to the flock. 4 And when the Chief (F)Shepherd appears, you will receive the (G)unfading [b](H)crown of glory. 5 (I)You younger men, likewise, (J)be subject to your elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with (K)humility toward one another, for (L)God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
6 Therefore (M)humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, 7 (N)casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. 8 (O)Be of sober spirit, (P)be watchful. Your adversary, (Q)the devil, prowls around like a roaring (R)lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 [c](S)But resist him, (T)firm in the faith, knowing that (U)the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished among your [d]brethren who are in the world. 10 And after you have suffered (V)for a little while, the (W)God of all grace, who (X)called you to His (Y)eternal glory in Christ, will Himself (Z)restore, (AA)strengthen, confirm, and ground you. 11 (AB)To Him be might forever and ever. Amen.
12 Through (AC)Silvanus, our faithful brother as I regard him, (AD)I have written to you briefly, exhorting and bearing witness that this is (AE)the true grace of God. (AF)Stand firm in it! 13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you greetings, and so does my son, (AG)Mark. 14 (AH)Greet one another with a kiss of love.
(AI)Peace be to you all who are in Christ.

New International Version
2 Be shepherds of God’s flock(A) that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be;(B) not pursuing dishonest gain,(C) but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over(D) those entrusted to you, but being examples(E) to the flock. 4 And when the Chief Shepherd(F) appears, you will receive the crown of glory(G) that will never fade away.(H)
5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves(I) to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility(J) toward one another, because,
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.(L) 7 Cast all your anxiety on him(M) because he cares for you.(N)
8 Be alert and of sober mind.(O) Your enemy the devil prowls around(P) like a roaring lion(Q) looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him,(R) standing firm in the faith,(S) because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.(T)
10 And the God of all grace, who called you(U) to his eternal glory(V) in Christ, after you have suffered a little while,(W) will himself restore you and make you strong,(X) firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.(Y)
