5:1 所以，我这同作长老，作基督受苦的见证人，并同享那将要显出之荣耀的，劝你们中间作长老的人，
Therefore the elders among you I exhort, who am a fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, who am also a partaker of the glory to be revealed:
5:2 务要牧养你们中间神的群羊，按着神监督他们，不是出于勉强，乃是出于甘心；不是为着卑鄙的利益，乃是出于热切；
Shepherd the flock of God among you, overseeing not under compulsion but willingly, according to God; not by seeking gain through base means but eagerly;
5:3 也不是作主辖管所委托你们的产业，乃是作群羊的榜样。
Nor as lording it over your allotments but by becoming patterns of the flock.
5:4 到了牧长显现的时候，你们必得着那不能衰残的荣耀冠冕。
And when the Chief Shepherd is manifested, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.
5:5 照样，年幼的，要服从年长的；你们众人彼此相待，也都要以谦卑束腰，因为神敌挡狂傲的人，赐恩给谦卑的人。
In like manner, younger men, be subject to elders; and all of you gird yourselves with humility toward one another, because God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
5:6 所以你们要谦卑，服在神大能的手下，使祂到了时候，可以叫你们升高。
Therefore be humbled under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due time,
5:7 你们要将一切的忧虑卸给神，因为祂顾念你们。
Casting all your anxiety on Him because it matters to Him concerning you.
5:8 务要谨守、儆醒。你们的对头魔鬼，如同吼叫的狮子，遍地游行，寻找可吞吃的人；
Be sober; watch. Your adversary, the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking someone to devour.
5:9 你们要抵挡他，要在信上坚固，知道你们在世上的众弟兄，也是遭遇同样的苦难。
Him withstand, being firm in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being accomplished among your brotherhood in the world.
5:10 但那全般恩典的神，就是那曾在基督耶稣里召你们进入祂永远荣耀的，等你们暂受苦难之后，必要亲自成全你们，坚固你们，加强你们，给你们立定根基。
But the God of all grace, He who has called you into His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself perfect, establish, strengthen, and ground you.
5:11 愿荣耀权能归与祂，直到永永远远。阿们。
To Him be the glory and the might forever and ever. Amen.
5:12 我藉着我所看为忠信的弟兄西拉，略略的写了这信给你们，劝勉你们，又充分见证这是神真实的恩典；你们务要进入这恩典，并在其中站住。
Through Silvanus, the faithful brother, as I account him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying fully that this is the true grace of God; enter into this grace and stand in it.
5:13 在巴比伦同蒙拣选的问你们安，我儿子马可也问你们安。
The co- chosen in Babylon and Mark my son greet you.
5:14 你们要用爱心的亲嘴彼此问安。愿平安归与你们凡在基督里的人。
Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ.
