SHEPHERDING THE SHEPHERDDOM
I beseech the elders among you - I a co-elder and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and also a partaker of the glory to be unveiled. 2 Shepherd the shepherddom of Elohim among you, overseeing - not by compulsion, but voluntarily; not for avarice, but eagerly; 3 not as overlording the inheritance, but being types to the shepherddom: 4 so that when the Arch Shepherd manifests, you receive a wreath of glory - amaranthine. 5 Likewise, younger: subjugate yourselves to the elder. Yes, all subjugate to one another and enrobe with humblemindedness: because Elohim opposes the proud and gives charism to the humble.
