1 Now as an elder myself and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as one who shares in the glory to be revealed, I exhort the elders among you
1 To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed:
2 to tend the flock of God that is in your charge, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion but willingly, as God would have you do it —not for sordid gain but eagerly.
2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve;
3 Do not lord it over those in your charge, but be examples to the flock.
3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief shepherd appears, you will win the crown of glory that never fades away.
4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
