1 Peter 5:1-3

Shepherd the Flock of God

1 So I exhort the elders among you, ^aas a fellow elder and ^ba witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as a partaker in the glory that is going to be revealed: 2 ^cshepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight, ^{▼▼Some manuscripts omit exercising oversight} ^enot under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you; ^{▼▼Some manuscripts omit as God would have you} ^gnot for shameful gain, but eagerly; 3 not ^hdomineering over those in your charge, but ⁱbeing examples to the flock.
