1 Peter 5:2-4

New Century Version

² shepherd God’s flock, for whom you are responsible. Watch over them because you want to, not because you are forced. That is how God wants it. Do it because you are happy to serve, not because you want money. ³ Do not be like a ruler over people you are responsible for, but be good examples to them. ⁴ Then when Christ, the Chief Shepherd, comes, you will get a glorious crown that will never lose its beauty.
