1 Pet. 5:2 (LIT/UBS4) Shepherd (poimanate) the (to) little flock (poimnion) of the (tou) God (theou) among (en) you (humin).

 

Be episcopating (episkopountes) not (mē) constrainedly (anankastōs), BUT (alla) willingly (hekousiōs), down according to (kata) God (theon);

 

but not (mēde) shamefully (shamefully), BUT (alla) passionately (prothumōs);

1 Pet. 5:9 (LIT/UBS4) to whom (hō) stand opposed (antistēte), solid (stereoi) for the (tē) belief (pistei), you having seen (eidotes) the (ta) same (auta) sufferings (pathēmatōn) of the (tōn) [chief shepherd, v4, RE] to be completed over (epiteleisthai) [the sake, AE] of the (tē) brotherhood (adelphotēti) of you (humōn) in (en) the (tō) cosmos (kosmō).

 

1 Pet. 5:10 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) God (theos) of every (pasēs) gracious thing (charitos), the one (ho) having called you aloud (kalesas humas) into (eis) the (tēn) ageless (aiōnion) glory (doxan) of him (autou) in (en) Christ (Christō) Jesus (Iēsou), you having suffered (pathontas) [a] little (oligon), he (autos) shall make [you, v9, ER] fit (katartisei);

 

he shall stabilize (stērixei) [you, v9, ER];

 

he shall strengthen (sthenōsei) [you, v9, ER];

 

he shall found (themeliōsei) [you, v9, ER]!

consoling (parakalōn) and (kai) witnessing upon (epimarturōn) this (tautēn) to be (einai) [the] true (alēthē) grace (charin) of the (tou) God (theou) in (eis) which (hēn) you stand (stēte)!
