1 Peter 5

1 The elders
ℵBA ⟨elders therefore⟩
 which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
1 Πρεσβυτέρους τοὺς
WH οὖν
 ἐν ὑμῖν παρακαλῶ ὁ συμπρεσβύτερος
WH συνπρεσβύτερος
 καὶ μάρτυς τῶν τοῦ χριστοῦ παθημάτων, ὁ καὶ τῆς μελλούσης ἀποκαλύπτεσθαι δόξης κοινωνός·
2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof,
ℵB omit
 not by constraint, but willingly
ℵA ⟨willingly according to God⟩
; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
2 ποιμάνατε τὸ ἐν ὑμῖν ποίμνιον τοῦ θεοῦ, ἐπισκοποῦντες
WH omit
 μὴ ἀναγκαστῶς, ἀλλ’
WH ἀλλὰ
 ἑκουσίως· μηδὲ αἰσχροκερδῶς, ἀλλὰ προθύμως·
3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.

3 μηδὲ
WH μηδ’
 ὡς κατακυριεύοντες τῶν κλήρων, ἀλλὰ τύποι γινόμενοι τοῦ ποιμνίου.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
4 Καὶ φανερωθέντος τοῦ ἀρχιποίμενος, κομιεῖσθε τὸν ἀμαράντινον τῆς δόξης στέφανον.
5 Likewise
ℵ ⟨And likewise⟩
, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject
ℵBA omit
 one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
5 Ὁμοίως, νεώτεροι, ὑποτάγητε πρεσβυτέροις· πάντες δὲ ἀλλήλοις ὑποτασσόμενοι,
WH omit
 τὴν ταπεινοφροσύνην ἐγκομβώσασθε· ὅτι ὁ
WH [ὁ]
 θεὸς ὑπερηφάνοις ἀντιτάσσεται, ταπεινοῖς δὲ δίδωσιν χάριν.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time
A ⟨the time of visitation⟩
:
6 Ταπεινώθητε οὖν ὑπὸ τὴν κραταιὰν χεῖρα τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα ὑμᾶς ὑψώσῃ ἐν καιρῷ,
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you
ℵ ⟨us⟩
.
7 πᾶσαν τὴν μέριμναν ὑμῶν ἐπιρρίψαντες
WH ἐπιρίψαντες
 ἐπ’ αὐτόν, ὅτι αὐτῷ μέλει περὶ ὑμῶν.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because
ℵBA omit
 your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about
ℵBA ⟨walketh about as a roaring lion⟩
, seeking whom he may
B ⟨to⟩; ℵ ⟨someone to⟩
 devour:
8 Νήψατε, γρηγορήσατε· ὁ ἀντίδικος ὑμῶν διάβολος, ὡς λέων ὠρυόμενος, περιπατεῖ ζητῶν τίνα καταπίῃ
WH καταπιεῖν
·
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
9 ᾧ ἀντίστητε στερεοὶ τῇ πίστει, εἰδότες τὰ αὐτὰ τῶν παθημάτων τῇ ἐν [+]
WH τῷ
 κόσμῳ ὑμῶν ἀδελφότητι ἐπιτελεῖσθαι.
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us
ℵBA ⟨you⟩
 unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus

, after that ye have suffered a while, make
ℵBA ⟨will make⟩
 you
ℵA omit
 perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle

 you.
10 Ὁ δὲ θεὸς πάσης χάριτος, ὁ καλέσας ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν αἰώνιον αὐτοῦ δόξαν ἐν χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ,

12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying

 that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.
12 Διὰ Σιλουανοῦ ὑμῖν τοῦ πιστοῦ ἀδελφοῦ, ὡς λογίζομαι, δι’ ὀλίγων ἔγραψα, παρακαλῶν καὶ ἐπιμαρτυρῶν ταύτην εἶναι ἀληθῆ χάριν τοῦ θεοῦ εἰς ἣν ἑστήκατε
WH στῆτε
.
13 The church that is
ℵ ⟨church⟩
 at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.
13 Ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς ἡ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι συνεκλεκτή, καὶ Μάρκος ὁ υἱός μου.
14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus
BA omit
