1
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
Tend the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
3
neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
4
When the chief Shepherd will be revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn`t fade away.
