< 1 Peter 5 >
1 The elders which [are] among you I exhort, who [am their] fellow-elder and witness of the sufferings of the Christ, who also [am] partaker of the glory about to be revealed:
πρεσβυτερους τους εν υμιν παρακαλω ο συμπρεσβυτερος και μαρτυς των του χριστου παθηματων ο και της μελλουσης αποκαλυπτεσθαι δοξης κοινωνος
2 shepherd the flock of God which [is] among you, exercising oversight, not by necessity, but willingly; not for base gain, but readily;
ποιμανατε το εν υμιν ποιμνιον του θεου επισκοπουντες μη αναγκαστως αλλ εκουσιως μηδε αισχροκερδως αλλα προθυμως
3 not as lording it over your possessions, but being models for the flock.
μηδε ως κατακυριευοντες των κληρων αλλα τυποι γινομενοι του ποιμνιου
4 And when the chief shepherd is manifested ye shall receive the unfading crown of glory.
και φανερωθεντος του αρχιποιμενος κομιεισθε τον αμαραντινον της δοξης στεφανον
5 Likewise [ye] younger, be subject to [the] elder, and all of you bind on humility towards one another; for God sets himself against [the] proud, but to [the] humble gives grace.
ομοιως νεωτεροι υποταγητε πρεσβυτεροις παντες δε αλληλοις υποτασσομενοι την ταπεινοφροσυνην εγκομβωσασθε οτι ο θεος υπερηφανοις αντιτασσεται ταπεινοις δε διδωσιν χαριν
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in [the due] time;
ταπεινωθητε ουν υπο την κραταιαν χειρα του θεου ινα υμας υψωση εν καιρω
7 having cast all your care upon him, for he cares about you.
πασαν την μεριμναν υμων επιρριψαντες επ αυτον οτι αυτω μελει υπερ υμων
8 Be vigilant, watch. Your adversary [the] devil as a roaring lion walks about seeking whom he may devour.
νηψατε γρηγορησατε οτι ο αντιδικος υμων διαβολος ως λεων ωρυομενος περιερχεται ζητων τινα καταπιειν
9 Whom resist, stedfast in faith, knowing that the selfsame sufferings are accomplished in your brotherhood which [is] in [the] world.
ω αντιστητε στερεοι τη πιστει ειδοτες τα αυτα των παθηματων τη εν κοσμω υμων αδελφοτητι επιτελεισθαι
10 But the God of all grace who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, when ye have suffered for a little while, himself shall make perfect, stablish, strengthen, ground: (aiōnios )
ο δε θεος πασης χαριτος ο καλεσας υμας εις την αιωνιον αυτου δοξαν εν χριστω ιησου ολιγον παθοντας αυτος καταρτισαι υμας στηριξαι σθενωσαι θεμελιωσαι (aiōnios )
11 to him [be] the glory and the might for the ages of the ages. Amen. (aiōn )
αυτω η δοξα και το κρατος εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων αμην (aiōn )
12 By Silvanus, the faithful brother, as I suppose, I have written to you briefly; exhorting and testifying that this is [the] true grace of God in which ye stand.
δια σιλουανου υμιν του πιστου αδελφου ως λογιζομαι δι ολιγων εγραψα παρακαλων και επιμαρτυρων ταυτην ειναι αληθη χαριν του θεου εις ην εστηκατε
13 She that is elected with [you] in Babylon salutes you, and Marcus my son.
ασπαζεται υμας η εν βαβυλωνι συνεκλεκτη και μαρκος ο υιος μου
14 Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be with you all who [are] in Christ.
ασπασασθε αλληλους εν φιληματι αγαπης ειρηνη υμιν πασιν τοις εν χριστω ιησου αμην
