The elders ⁴²⁴⁵ which are among ¹⁷²² you ⁵²¹³ I exhort ^{3870 , 5719} , who ³⁵⁸⁸ am also an elder ⁴⁸⁵⁰ , and ²⁵³² a witness ³¹⁴⁴ of the sufferings ³⁸⁰⁴ of Christ ⁵⁵⁴⁷ , and also ²⁵³² a partaker ²⁸⁴⁴ of the glory ¹³⁹¹ that shall ^{3195 , 5723} be revealed ^{601 , 5745} :

Feed ^{4165 , 5657} the flock ⁴¹⁶⁸ of God ²³¹⁶ which is among ¹⁷²² you ⁵²¹³ , taking the oversight ^{1983 , 5723} thereof , not ³³⁶¹ by constraint ³¹⁷ , but ²³⁵ willingly ¹⁵⁹⁶ ; not ³³⁶⁶ for filthy lucre ¹⁴⁷ , but ²³⁵ of a ready mind ⁴²⁹⁰ ; [which...: or, as much as in you is]

And ²⁵³² when the chief Shepherd ⁷⁵⁰ shall appear ^{5319 , 5685} , ye shall receive ^{2865 , 5695} a crown ⁴⁷³⁵ of glory ¹³⁹¹ that fadeth not away ²⁶² .

Likewise ³⁶⁶⁸ , ye younger ³⁵⁰¹ , submit yourselves ^{5293 , 5649} unto the elder ⁴²⁴⁵ . Yea ¹¹⁶¹ , all ³⁹⁵⁶ of you be subject ^{5293 , 5746} one to another ²⁴⁰ , and be clothed ^{1463 , 5663} with humility ⁵⁰¹² : for ³⁷⁵⁴ God ²³¹⁶ resisteth ^{498 , 5731} the proud ⁵²⁴⁴ , and ¹¹⁶¹ giveth ^{1325 , 5719} grace ⁵⁴⁸⁵ to the humble ⁵⁰¹¹ .

Humble yourselves ^{5013 , 5682} therefore ³⁷⁶⁷ under ⁵²⁵⁹ the mighty ²⁹⁰⁰ hand ⁵⁴⁹⁵ of God ²³¹⁶ , that ²⁴⁴³ he may exalt ^{5312 , 5661} you ⁵²⁰⁹ in ¹⁷²² due time ²⁵⁴⁰ :

Casting ^{1977 , 5660} all ³⁹⁵⁶ your ⁵²¹⁶ care ³³⁰⁸ upon ¹⁹⁰⁹ him ⁸⁴⁶ ; for ³⁷⁵⁴ he ⁸⁴⁶ careth ^{3199 , 5719} for ⁴⁰¹² you ⁵²¹⁶ .

Be sober ^{3525 , 5657} , be vigilant ^{1127 , 5657} ; because ³⁷⁵⁴ your ⁵²¹⁶ adversary ⁴⁷⁶ the devil ¹²²⁸ , as ⁵⁶¹³ a roaring ^{5612 , 5740} lion ³⁰²³ , walketh about ^{4043 , 5719} , seeking ^{2212 , 5723} whom ⁵¹⁰¹ he may devour ^{2666 , 5632} :

Whom ³⁷³⁹ resist ^{436 , 5628} stedfast ⁴⁷³¹ in the faith ⁴¹⁰² , knowing ^{1492 , 5761} that the same ⁸⁴⁶ afflictions ³⁸⁰⁴ are accomplished ^{2005 , 5745} in your ⁵²¹⁶ brethren ⁸¹ that are in ¹⁷²² the world ²⁸⁸⁹ .

But ¹¹⁶¹ the God ²³¹⁶ of all ³⁹⁵⁶ grace ⁵⁴⁸⁵ , who ³⁵⁸⁸ hath called ^{2564 , 5660} us ²²⁴⁸ unto ¹⁵¹⁹ his ⁸⁴⁶ eternal ¹⁶⁶ glory ¹³⁹¹ by ¹⁷²² Christ ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus ²⁴²⁴ , after that ye have suffered ^{3958 , 5631} a while ³⁶⁴¹ , # ⁸⁴⁶ make ^{2675 , 0} you ⁵²⁰⁹ perfect ^{2675 , 5659} , stablish ^{4741 , 5659} , strengthen ^{4599 , 5659} , settle ^{2311 , 5659} you .

To him ⁸⁴⁶ be glory ¹³⁹¹ and ²⁵³² dominion ²⁹⁰⁴ for ¹⁵¹⁹ ever ¹⁶⁵ and ever ¹⁶⁵ . Amen ²⁸¹ .

By ¹²²³ Silvanus ⁴⁶¹⁰ , a faithful ⁴¹⁰³ brother ⁸⁰ unto you ⁵²¹³ , as ⁵⁶¹³ I suppose ^{3049 , 5736} , I have written ^{1125 , 5656} briefly ^{1223 , 3641} , exhorting ^{3870 , 5723} , and ²⁵³² testifying ^{1957 , 5723} that this ⁵⁰²⁶ is ^{1511 , 5750} the true ²²⁷ grace ⁵⁴⁸⁵ of God ²³¹⁶ wherein ^{1519 , 3739} ye stand ^{2476 , 5758} .

The church that is at ¹⁷²² Babylon ⁸⁹⁷ , elected together with ⁴⁸⁹⁹ you , saluteth ^{782 , 5736} you ⁵²⁰⁹ ; and ²⁵³² so doth Marcus ³¹³⁸ my ³⁴⁵⁰ son ⁵²⁰⁷ .

Greet ye ^{782 , 5663} one another ²⁴⁰ with ¹⁷²² a kiss ⁵³⁷⁰ of charity ²⁶ . Peace ¹⁵¹⁵ be with you ⁵²¹³ all ³⁹⁵⁶ that are in ¹⁷²² Christ ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus ²⁴²⁴ . Amen ²⁸¹ .
