The eldersG4245 which are amongG1722 youG5213 I exhortG3870, whoG3588 am also an elderG4850, andG2532 a witnessG3144 of the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, and alsoG2532 a partakerG2844 of the gloryG1391 that shallG3195 be revealedG601:
FeedG4165 the flockG4168 of GodG2316 which is amongG1722 youG5213, taking the oversightG1983 thereof, notG3361 by constraintG317, butG235 willinglyG1596; notG3366 for filthy lucreG147, butG235 of a ready mindG4290; {which…: or, as much as in you is}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
AndG2532 when the chief ShepherdG750 shall appearG5319, ye shall receiveG2865 a crownG4735 of gloryG1391 that fadeth not awayG262.
LikewiseG3668, ye youngerG3501, submit yourselvesG5293 unto the elderG4245. YeaG1161, allG3956 of you be subjectG5293 one to anotherG240, and be clothedG1463 with humilityG5012: forG3754 GodG2316 resistethG498 the proudG5244, andG1161 givethG1325 graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.
Humble yourselvesG5013 thereforeG3767 underG5259 the mightyG2900 handG5495 of GodG2316, thatG2443 he may exaltG5312 youG5209 inG1722 due timeG2540:
CastingG1977 allG3956 yourG5216 careG3308 uponG1909 himG846; forG3754 heG846 carethG3199 forG4012 youG5216.
Be soberG3525, be vigilantG1127; becauseG3754 yourG5216 adversaryG476 the devilG1228, asG5613 a roaringG5612 lionG3023, walketh aboutG4043, seekingG2212 whomG5101 he may devourG2666:
WhomG3739 resistG436 stedfastG4731 in the faithG4102, knowingG1492 that the sameG846 afflictionsG3804 are accomplishedG2005 in yourG5216 brethrenG81 that are inG1722 the worldG2889.
ButG1161 the GodG2316 of allG3956 graceG5485, whoG3588 hath calledG2564 usG2248 untoG1519 hisG846 eternalG166 gloryG1391 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, after that ye have sufferedG3958 a whileG3641+G846, makeG2675 youG5209 perfectG2675, stablishG4741, strengthenG4599, settleG2311 you.
To himG846 be gloryG1391 andG2532 dominionG2904 forG1519 everG165 and everG165. AmenG281.
ByG1223 SilvanusG4610, a faithfulG4103 brotherG80 unto youG5213, asG5613 I supposeG3049, I have writtenG1125 brieflyG1223+G3641, exhortingG3870, andG2532 testifyingG1957 that thisG5026 isG1511 the trueG227 graceG5485 of GodG2316 whereinG1519+G3739 ye standG2476.
The church that is atG1722 BabylonG897, elected together withG4899 you, salutethG782 youG5209; andG2532 so doth MarcusG3138 myG3450 sonG5207.
Greet yeG782 one anotherG240 withG1722 a kissG5370 of charityG26. PeaceG1515 be with youG5213 allG3956 that are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. AmenG281.

If thou knowH3045 not, O thou fairestH3303 among womenH802, go thy way forthH3318 by the footstepsH6119 of the flockH6629, and feedH7462 thy kidsH1429 beside the shepherds'H7462 tentsH4908.
Then he rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769, MosesH4872, and his peopleH5971, saying, Where is he that brought them upH5927 out of the seaH3220 with the shepherdH7462 of his flockH6629? where is he that putH7760 his holyH6944 SpiritH7307 withinH7130 him? {shepherd: or, shepherds}
From followingH310 the ewes great with youngH5763 he broughtH935 him to feedH7462 JacobH3290 his peopleH5971, and IsraelH3478 his inheritanceH5159. {following: Heb. after}
Looking diligentlyG1983 lestG3361 any manG5100 failG5302 ofG575 the graceG5485 of GodG2316; lestG3361 anyG5100 rootG4491 of bitternessG4088 springingG5453 upG507 troubleG1776 you, andG2532 therebyG1223+G5026 manyG4183 be defiledG3392; {fail…: or, fall from}
Also I heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH136, sayingH559, Whom shall I sendH7971, and who will goH3212 for us? Then saidH559 I, Here am I; sendH7971 me. {Here…: Heb. behold me}
Yea, they are greedyH5794+H5315 dogsH3611 which canH3045 never haveH3045 enoughH7654, and they are shepherdsH7462 that cannot understandH995: they all lookH6437 to their own wayH1870, every oneH376 for his gainH1215, from his quarterH7097. {greedy: Heb. strong of appetite} {can…: Heb. know not to be satisfied}
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 answeredG611, WhatG5101 mean yeG4160 to weepG2799 andG2532 to breakG4919 mineG3450 heartG2588? forG1063 IG1473 amG2192 readyG2093 notG3756 to be boundG1210 onlyG3440, butG2532 alsoG235 to dieG599 atG1519 JerusalemG2419 forG5228 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
He shall feedH7462 his flockH5739 like a shepherdH7462: he shall gatherH6908 the lambsH2922 with his armH2220, and carryH5375 them in his bosomH2436, and shall gently leadH5095 those that are with youngH5763. {that…: or, that give suck}
But if ye will not hearH8085 it, my soulH5315 shall weepH1058 in secret placesH4565 forH6440 your prideH1466; and mine eyeH5869 shall weepH1830 soreH1830, and run downH3381 with tearsH1832, because the LORD'SH3068 flockH5739 is carried away captiveH7617.
So he fedH7462 them according to the integrityH8537 of his heartH3824; and guidedH5148 them by the skilfulnessH8394 of his handsH3709.
ForG1063 thoughG1437 I preach the gospelG2097, IG3427 haveG2076 nothingG3756 to glory ofG2745: forG1063 necessityG318 is laid uponG1945 meG3427; yeaG1161, woeG3759 isG2076 unto meG3427, ifG3362 I preachG2097 notG3362 the gospelG2097!
For from the leastH6996 of them even unto the greatestH1419 of them every one is givenH1214 to covetousnessH1215; and from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548 every one dealethH6213 falselyH8267.
SoG3779, as much asG2596 in me isG1691, I am readyG4289 to preach the gospelG2097 to youG5213 that are atG1722 RomeG4516 alsoG2532.
SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012 against the shepherdsH7462 of IsraelH3478, prophesyH5012, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 unto the shepherdsH7462; WoeH1945 be to the shepherdsH7462 of IsraelH3478 that do feedH7462 themselves! should not the shepherdsH7462 feedH7462 the flocksH6629?
Lift upH5375 your eyesH5869, and beholdH7200 them that comeH935 from the northH6828: where is the flockH5739 that was givenH5414 thee, thy beautifulH8597 flockH6629?
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
ForG1063 ifG1487 I doG4238 this thingG5124 willinglyG1635, I haveG2192 a rewardG3408: butG1161 ifG1487 against my willG210, a dispensationG3622 of the gospel is committed unto meG4100.
Therefore will I giveH5414 their wivesH802 unto othersH312, and their fieldsH7704 to them that shall inheritH3423 them: for every one from the leastH6996 even unto the greatestH1419 is givenH1214 to covetousnessH1215, from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548 every one dealethH6213 falselyH8267.
WhoG3739 gaveG1325 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257, thatG2443 he might redeemG3084 usG2248 fromG575 allG3956 iniquityG458, andG2532 purifyG2511 unto himselfG1438 a peculiarG4041 peopleG2992, zealousG2207 of goodG2570 worksG2041.
Ye eatH398 the fatH2459, and ye clotheH3847 you with the woolH6785, ye killH2076 them that are fedH1277: but ye feedH7462 not the flockH6629.
And yeH859 my flockH6629, the flockH6629 of my pastureH4830, are menH120, and I am your GodH430, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
The headsH7218 thereof judgeH8199 for rewardH7810, and the priestsH3548 thereof teachH3384 for hireH4242, and the prophetsH5030 thereof divineH7080 for moneyH3701: yet will they leanH8172 upon the LORDH3068, and sayH559, Is not the LORDH3068 amongH7130 us? none evilH7451 can comeH935 upon us. {and say: Heb. saying}
PutG5279 themG846 in mindG5279 to be subjectG5293 to principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849, to obey magistratesG3980, to beG1511 readyG2092 toG4314 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041,
And I will set upH6965 oneH259 shepherdH7462 over them, and he shall feedH7462 them, even my servantH5650 DavidH1732; he shall feedH7462 them, and he shall be their shepherdH7462.
WoeH1945 to the idolH457 shepherdH7473 that leavethH5800 the flockH6629! the swordH2719 shall be upon his armH2220, and upon his rightH3225 eyeH5869: his armH2220 shall be cleanH3001 dried upH3001, and his rightH3225 eyeH5869 shall be utterlyH3543 darkenedH3543.
Who is there even among you that would shutH5462 the doorsH1817 for nought? neither do ye kindleH215 fire on mine altarH4196 for noughtH2600. I have no pleasureH2656 in you, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, neither will I acceptH7521 an offeringH4503 at your handH3027.
And he shall standH5975 and feedH7462 in the strengthH5797 of the LORDH3068, in the majestyH1347 of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430; and they shall abideH3427: for now shall he be greatH1431 unto the endsH657 of the earthH776. {feed or, rule}
FearG5399 notG3361, littleG3398 flockG4168; forG3754 it isG2106 yourG5216 Father'sG3962 good pleasureG2106 to giveG1325 youG5213 the kingdomG932.
FeedH7462 thy peopleH5971 with thy rodH7626, the flockH6629 of thine heritageH5159, which dwellH7931 solitarilyH910 in the woodH3293, in the midstH8432 of CarmelH3760: let them feedH7462 in BashanH1316 and GileadH1568, as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769. {Feed: or, Rule}
WhoG5101 goeth a warfareG4754 any time atG4218 his ownG2398 chargesG3800? whoG5101 plantethG5452 a vineyardG290, andG2532 eatethG2068 notG3756 ofG1537 the fruitG2590 thereofG846? orG2228 whoG5101 feedethG4165 a flockG4167, andG2532 eatethG2068 notG3756 ofG1537 the milkG1051 of the flockG4167?
YeaG1161, ye yourselvesG846 knowG1097, thatG3754 theseG3778 handsG5495 have ministeredG5256 unto myG3450 necessitiesG5532, andG2532 to them that wereG5607 withG3326 meG1700.
SoG3767 whenG3753 they had dinedG709, JesusG2424 saithG3004 to SimonG4613 PeterG4074, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165 more thanG4119 theseG5130? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 lambsG721.
He saithG3004 to himG846 againG3825 the second timeG1208, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG4165 myG3450 sheepG4263.
He saithG3004 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovestG5368 thou meG3165? PeterG4074 was grievedG3076 becauseG3754 he saidG2036 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, LovestG5368 thou meG3165? AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, LordG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492 all thingsG3956; thouG4771 knowestG1097 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 sheepG4263.
BeholdG2400, the third timeG5154 I amG2192 readyG2093 to comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209; andG2532 I willG2655 notG3756 be burdensomeG2655 to youG5216: forG1063 I seekG2212 notG3756 yoursG5216, butG235 youG5209: forG1063 the childrenG5043 oughtG3784 notG3756 to lay upG2343 for the parentsG1118, butG235 the parentsG1118 for the childrenG5043.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
AndG1161 IG1473 will very gladlyG2236 spendG1159 andG2532 be spentG1550 forG5228 youG5590+G5216; thoughG1499 the more abundantlyG4056 I loveG25 youG5209, the lessG2276 I be lovedG25. {for you: Gr. for your souls}
NotG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 greedy of filthy lucreG146; butG235 patientG1933, not a brawlerG269, not covetousG866; {given…: or, ready to quarrel, and offer wrong, as one in wine}
LikewiseG5615 must the deaconsG1249 be graveG4586, notG3361 doubletonguedG1351, notG3361 givenG4337 to muchG4183 wineG3631, notG3361 greedy of filthy lucreG146;
ForG1063 a bishopG1985 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG410, asG5613 the stewardG3623 of GodG2316; notG3361 selfwilledG829, notG3361 soon angryG3711, notG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 given to filthy lucreG146;
WhoseG3739 mouthsG1993 mustG1163 be stoppedG1993, whoG3748 subvertG396 wholeG3650 housesG3624, teachingG1321 things whichG3739 they oughtG1163 notG3361, forG5484 filthyG150 lucre'sG2771 sakeG5484.
AndG2532 throughG1722 covetousnessG4124 shall they with feignedG4112 wordsG3056 make merchandiseG1710 of youG5209: whoseG3739 judgmentG2917 now of a long timeG1597 lingerethG691 notG3756, andG2532 theirG846 damnationG684 slumberethG3573 notG3756.
The merchandiseG1117 of goldG5557, andG2532 silverG696, andG2532 preciousG5093 stonesG3037, andG2532 of pearlsG3135, andG2532 fine linenG1040, andG2532 purpleG4209, andG2532 silkG4596, andG2532 scarletG2847, andG2532 allG3956 thyineG2367 woodG3586, andG2532 all mannerG3956 vesselsG4632 of ivoryG1661, andG2532 all mannerG3956 vesselsG4632 ofG1537 most preciousG5093 woodG3586, andG2532 of brassG5475, andG2532 ironG4604, andG2532 marbleG3139, {thyine: or, sweet}
AndG2532 cinnamonG2792, andG2532 odoursG2368, andG2532 ointmentsG3464, andG2532 frankincenseG3030, andG2532 wineG3631, andG2532 oilG1637, andG2532 fine flourG4585, andG2532 wheatG4621, andG2532 beastsG2934, andG2532 sheepG4263, andG2532 horsesG2462, andG2532 chariotsG4480, andG2532 slavesG4983, andG2532 soulsG5590 of menG444. {slaves: or, bodies}
