1The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
2⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟϩⲓ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϣⲓⲛⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϭⲓ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲓⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲟⲩⲧϥ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ.
2Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof , not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
3ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳪ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓ⳿ⲕⲗⲏ ⲣⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲣⲓⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟϩⲓ.
3Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓϫⲱϫ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲛ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲗⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲁⲑⲗⲱⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ.
4And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

5Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6ⲙⲁⲑⲉⲃⲓ⳿ⲉ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϧⲁ ϯϫⲓϫ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲁⲙⲁϩⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϭⲉⲥ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϫⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲓⲛⲓ.
6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲣⲱⲟⲩϣ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲟⲩⲁϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⳿ⲥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲗⲓⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ϧⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9ⲫⲏ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲱϥ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁϫⲣⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓϧⲓⲥⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲡϫⲱⲕ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
9Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

10But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you .
11ⲫⲱϥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲙⲁϩⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲱⲟⲩ ϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ.
11To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

12By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.

13The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you , saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.

14Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
