 | 5:1 | The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: |
| 5:2 | Feed the flock of Elohim which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; |
| 5:3 | Neither as being masters over Yahweh's heritage, but being examples to the flock. |
| 5:4 | And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. |
| 5:5 | Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for Elohim resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. |
| 5:6 | Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of Elohim, that he may exalt you in due time: |
| 5:7 | Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. |
| 5:8 | Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. |
| 5:9 | Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. |
| 5:10 | But the Elohim of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Messiah Yahshua, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. |
| 5:11 | To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. |
| 5:12 | By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of Elohim wherein ye stand. |
| 5:13 | The assembly that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son. |
| 5:14 | Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Messiah Yahshua. Amen. |
