Opening verses of 1 Peter 5 (KJV)
5:1 The elders 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:
5:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight [thereof], not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
5:3 Neither as being lords over [God’s] heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
