1 Peter 5:1

Jesus
Serving othersSufferingHope
As a fellow elder, a witness of Christ’s sufferings, and a partaker of the glory to be revealed, I appeal to the elders among you:

2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is among you, watching over them not out of compulsion, but because it is God’s will; not out of greed, but out of eagerness;

3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.
