- Kapitel 5 -

(1 Timothy 3:1–7; Titus 1:5–9)
1
I am exhorting the elders among you, I, who am a fellow elder. I am also a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and am also a participant in the glory that will be revealed.
2
Therefore, I exhort you, elders, tend the flock of God that is among you. Look after them, not because you must, but because you wish to, according to God’s will. Look after them, not for dishonest money, but willingly.
3
Do not act as a master over the people who are in your care. Instead, be an example to the flock.
4
Then when the Chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive an unfading crown of glory.

Cast Your Cares on Him

5
In the same way, you younger men, submit to the older men. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility and serve one another. For God resists the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.
6
Therefore, humble yourselves under God’s mighty hand so that he may lift you up in due time.
7
Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.
8
Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, is stalking around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.
9
Stand against him. Be strong in your faith. You know that your community of believers that is in the world is enduring the same sufferings.

Benediction and Farewell

10
After you suffer for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will perfect you, establish you, and strengthen you.
11
To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
12
I regard Silvanus as a faithful brother, and I have written to you briefly through him. I am exhorting you and I am testifying to you that what I have written is the true grace of God. Stand in it.
13
The woman who is in Babylon, who is chosen together with you, greets you. Also Mark, my son, greets you.
14
Greet one another with a kiss of love. May peace be to you all who are in Christ.

(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.
