- Kapitel 5 -

(1 Timothy 3:1–7; Titus 1:5–9)
1
The elders which are among you, I beseech which am also an elder, and a witnesse of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shalbe reueiled,
2
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:
3
Not as though ye were lords ouer Gods heritage, but that yee may bee ensamples to the flocke.
4
And when that chiefe shepheard shall appeare, ye shall receiue an incorruptible crowne of glory.

Cast Your Cares on Him

5
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.
6
Humble your selues therefore vnder the mightie hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.
7
Cast all your care on him: for he careth for you.
8
Be sober, and watch: for your aduersarie the deuil as a roaring lyon walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure:
9
Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren which are in the world.

Benediction and Farewell

10
And the God of all grace, which hath called vs vnto his eternall glory by Christ Iesus, after that ye haue suffered a litle, make you perfite, confirme, strengthen and stablish you.
11
To him be glory and dominion for euer and euer, Amen.
12
By Syluanus a faithfull brother vnto you, as I suppose, haue I written briefly, exhorting and testifying how that this is the true grace of God, wherein ye stand.
13
The Church that is at Babylon elected together with you, saluteth you, and Marcus my sonne.
14
Greete yee one another with the kisse of loue. Peace be with you all which are in Christ Iesus, Amen.
(1 Timothy 3:1–7; Titus 1:5–9)
1
Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
2
shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
3
not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
4
When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.

Cast Your Cares on Him

5
Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”(a)
6
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
7
casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
8
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
9
Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.

Benediction and Farewell

10
But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
11
To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
12
Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
13
She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
14
Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
