3neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but patterns becoming of the flock,
4and at the manifestation of the chief Shepherd, ye shall receive the unfading crown of glory.
5In like manner, ye younger, be subject to elders, and all to one another subjecting yourselves; with humble-mindedness clothe yourselves, because God the proud doth resist, but to the humble He doth give grace;
6be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that you He may exalt in good time,
7all your care having cast upon Him, because He careth for you.
8Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the devil, as a roaring lion, doth walk about, seeking whom he may swallow up,
9whom resist, stedfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings to your brotherhood in the world to be accomplished.
