彼前5:1 我这同作长老，也是为基督受苦作见证，又是同享将来所要显现的荣耀的，劝你们当中作长老的：
彼前5:1 I who am myself one of the rulers of the church, and a witness of the death of Christ, having my part in the coming glory, send this serious request to the chief men among you:
彼前5:2 务要牧养你们中间的羊群，按着 神的旨意照顾他们。不是出于勉强，而是出于甘心；不是因为贪财，而是出于热诚；
彼前5:2 Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;
彼前5:3 也不是要辖制托付你们的羊群，而是作他们的榜样。
彼前5:3 Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
彼前5:4 到了牧长显现的时候，你们必定得着那永不衰残的荣耀冠冕。
彼前5:4 And at the coming of the chief Keeper of the sheep, you will be given the eternal crown of glory.
彼前5:5 照样，你们青年人要顺服年长的。就是你们各人也要彼此以谦卑为装束，因为“ 神敌挡骄傲的人，赐恩给谦卑的人。”
彼前5:5 And in the same way, let the younger men be ruled by the older ones. Let all of you put away pride and make yourselves ready to be servants: for God is a hater of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low.
彼前5:6 所以你们要谦卑，服在 神大能的手下，到了时候，他必叫你们升高。
彼前5:6 For this cause make yourselves low under the strong hand of God, so that when the time comes you may be lifted up;
彼前5:7 你们要把一切忧虑卸给 神，因为他顾念你们。
彼前5:7 Putting all your troubles on him, for he takes care of you.
彼前5:8 你们要谨守、警醒。你们的仇敌魔鬼，好像吼叫的狮子走来走去，寻找可以吞吃的人；
彼前5:8 Be serious and keep watch; the Evil One, who is against you, goes about like a lion with open mouth in search of food;
彼前5:9 你们要用坚强的信心抵挡他，因为知道你们在世上的弟兄，也经历过同样的苦难。
彼前5:9 Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.
彼前5:10 但满有恩典的 神，就是在基督里召你们进入他永远荣耀的那一位，在你们受了短暂的苦难之后，必定亲自成全你们，坚固你们，赐力量给你们，建立你们。
彼前5:10 And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;
彼前5:11 愿权能归给他，直到永远。阿们。
彼前5:11 His is the power for ever. So be it.
彼前5:12 我借着我认为忠心的弟兄西拉，简略地写了这封信劝勉你们，又向你们证实这是 神真正的恩典；你们要在这恩典上站立得住。
彼前5:12 I have sent you this short letter by Silvanus, a true brother, in my opinion; comforting you and witnessing that this is the true grace of God; keep to it.
彼前5:13 在巴比伦与你们同蒙拣选的，和我儿子马可都问候你们。
彼前5:13 She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.
彼前5:14 你们要用爱心彼此亲嘴问安。愿平安归与你们所有在基督里的人。
彼前5:14 Give one another the kiss of love. Peace be to you all in Christ.
