1 Peter 5:1-3

Worldwide English (New Testament)

5 So I am talking to the leaders among you. I am also a leader. I saw the sufferings of Christ. And I will have some part of his greatness when he comes again.

² Take good care of God's people. They have been given to you to care for. Do this, not because you must do it, but because you want to please God. Do it not for the money that you get for doing it, but because you are glad to do it.

³ Do not be like a boss over the people you care for, telling them how to live. But show them how to live by the way you live.
