Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

1 Peter 5

1 He exhorteth the elders to feed their flocks, 5 the younger to obey, 8 and all to be sober, watchful, and constant in the faith: 9 to resist the cruel adversary the devil.

 5:1 ¶ The elders 4245 which x3588 are among 1722 you 5213 I exhort, 3870 z5719 who y3588 am also an elder, 4850 and 2532 a witness 3144 of the x3588 sufferings 3804 of Christ, 5547 and x2532 also y2532 a partaker 2844 of the glory 1391 that shall 3195 z5723 be revealed: 601 z5745

 5:2 Feed 4165 z5657 the x3588 flock 4168 of God 2316 which is among 1722 you, 5213 taking the oversight 1983 z5723 [thereof], not 3361 by constraint, 317 but 235 willingly; 1596 not 3366 for filthy lucre, 147 but 235 of a ready mind; 4290

 5:3 Neither 3366 as 5613 being lords over 2634 z5723 [God's] heritage, 2819 but 235 being 1096 z5740 ensamples 5179 to the x3588 flock. 4168

 5:4 And 2532 when the x3588 chief Shepherd 750 shall appear, 5319 z5685 ye shall receive 2865 z5695 a crown 4735 of glory 1391 that fadeth not away. 262

 5:5 Likewise, 3668 ye younger, 3501 submit yourselves 5293 z5649 unto the elder. 4245 Yea, 1161 all 3956 [of you] be subject 5293 z5746 one to another, 240 and x2532 be clothed y1463 z5663 with x1463 humility: 5012 for 3754 God 2316 resisteth 498 z5731 the proud, 5244 and 1161 giveth 1325 z5719 grace 5485 to the humble. 5011

 5:6 Humble yourselves 5013 z5682 therefore 3767 under 5259 the x3588 mighty 2900 hand 5495 of God, 2316 that 2443 he may exalt 5312 z5661 you 5209 in 1722 due time: 2540

 5:7 Casting 1977 z5660 all 3956 your 5216 care 3308 upon 1909 him; 846 for 3754 he 846 careth 3199 z5719 for 4012 you. 5216

 5:8 Be sober, 3525 z5657 be vigilant; 1127 z5657 because 3754 your 5216 adversary 476 the devil, 1228 as 5613 a roaring 5612 z5740 lion, 3023 walketh about, 4043 z5719 seeking 2212 z5723 whom 5101 he may devour: 2666 z5632

 5:9 Whom 3739 resist 436 z5628 stedfast 4731 in the x3588 faith, 4102 knowing 1492 z5761 that the x3588 same 846 afflictions 3804 are accomplished 2005 z5745 in your 5216 brethren 81 that are in 1722 the world. 2889

 5:10 But 1161 the x3588 God 2316 of all 3956 grace, 5485 who y3588 hath called 2564 z5660 us 2248 unto 1519 his y846 x848 eternal 166 glory 1391 by 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus, 2424 after that ye have suffered 3958 z5631 a while, 3641 y846 make y2675 z0 you y5209 perfect, 2675 z5659 x5209 stablish, 4741 z5659 strengthen, 4599 z5659 settle 2311 z5659 [you].

 5:11 To him 846 [be] glory 1391 and 2532 dominion 2904 for y1519 ever y165 and ever. 165 x1519 Amen. 281

 5:12 By 1223 Silvanus, 4610 a faithful 4103 brother 80 unto you, 5213 as 5613 I suppose, 3049 z5736 I have written 1125 z5656 briefly, 1223 3641 exhorting, 3870 z5723 and 2532 testifying 1957 z5723 that this 5026 is 1511 z5750 the true 227 grace 5485 of God 2316 wherein 1519 3739 ye stand. 2476 z5758

 5:13 The x3588 [church that is] at 1722 Babylon, 897 elected together with 4899 [you], saluteth 782 z5736 you; 5209 and 2532 [so doth] Marcus 3138 my 3450 son. 5207

 5:14 Greet x782 ye y782 z5663 one another 240 with 1722 a kiss 5370 of charity. 26 Peace 1515 [be] with you 5213 all 3956 that x3588 are in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus. 2424 Amen. 281
