2
Be shepherds of God's flock1 that is under your care, serving as overseers--not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be;2 not greedy for money,3 but eager to serve;
3
not lording it over4 those entrusted to you, but being examples5 to the flock.
4
And when the Chief Shepherd6 appears, you will receive the crown of glory7 that will never fade away.8
