1 Peter 5:1-3 New English Translation (NET)

1. So as your fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings and as one who shares in the glory that will be revealed, I urge the elders among you:

2. Give a shepherd’s care to God’s flock among you, exercising oversight not merely as a duty but willingly under God’s direction, not for shameful profit but eagerly.

3. And do not lord it over those entrusted to you, but be examples to the flock.
