Feede the flocke of God, which dependeth vpon you, caring for it not by constraint, but willingly: not for filthy lucre, but of a ready minde:
Not as though ye were lords ouer Gods heritage, but that yee may bee ensamples to the flocke.
And when that chiefe shepheard shall appeare, ye shall receiue an incorruptible crowne of glory.

Likewise ye yonger, submit your selues vnto the elders, and submit your selues euery man, one to another: decke your selues inwardly in lowlinesse of minde: for God resisteth the proude, and giueth grace to the humble.
Humble your selues therefore vnder the mightie hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.
Cast all your care on him: for he careth for you.
