PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 A los ancianos que están entre ustedes, yo, anciano como ellos, testigo de los sufrimientos de Cristo y participante de la gloria que será revelada, les ruego:
1 Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
1 Πρεσβυτέρους τοὺς ἐν ὑμῖν παρακαλῶ ὁ συμπρεσβύτερος καὶ μάρτυς τῶν τοῦ Χριστοῦ παθημάτων, ὁ καὶ τῆς μελλούσης ἀποκαλύπτεσθαι δόξης κοινωνός,
2 pastoreen el rebaño de Dios que está entre ustedes, cuidándolo no por obligación, sino de buena voluntad, como Dios quiere; no por ganancia deshonesta, sino con ánimo dispuesto.
2 shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
2 ποιμάνατε τὸ ἐν ὑμῖν ποίμνιον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἐπισκοποῦντες μὴ ἀναγκαστῶς, ἀλλ᾽ ἑκουσίως, μηδὲ αἰσχροκερδῶς, ἀλλὰ προθύμως,
3 No actúen como dueños de los que están a su cuidado, sino sean ejemplos para el rebaño.
3 not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
3 μηδ᾽ ὡς κατακυριεύοντες τῶν κλήρων, ἀλλὰ τύποι γινόμενοι τοῦ ποιμνίου·
4 Y cuando aparezca el Príncipe de los pastores, ustedes recibirán la corona de gloria que nunca se marchita.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
4 καὶ φανερωθέντος τοῦ ἀρχιποίμενος κομιεῖσθε τὸν ἀμαράντινον τῆς δόξης στέφανον.
5 De la misma manera, jóvenes, sométanse a los ancianos. Y todos, revístanse de humildad unos hacia otros, porque Dios resiste a los orgullosos, pero da gracia a los humildes.
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
5 Ὁμοίως νεώτεροι ὑποτάγητε πρεσβυτέροις, πάντες δὲ ἀλλήλοις ὑποτασσόμενοι τὴν ταπεινοφροσύνην ἐγκομβώσασθε· ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς ὑπερηφάνοις ἀντιτάσσεται, ταπεινοῖς δὲ δίδωσι χάριν.
6 Humíllense, pues, bajo la poderosa mano de Dios, para que él los exalte a su debido tiempo.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
6 Ταπεινώθητε οὖν ὑπὸ τὴν κραταιὰν χεῖρα τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἵνα ὑμᾶς ὑψώσῃ ἐν καιρῷ.
7 Echen sobre él toda su ansiedad, porque él cuida de ustedes.
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
7 πᾶσαν τὴν μέριμναν ὑμῶν ἐπιρρίψαντες ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν, ὅτι αὐτῷ μέλει περὶ ὑμῶν,
8 Sean sobrios y estén alerta. Su adversario, el diablo, anda alrededor como león rugiente, buscando a quien devorar.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
8 νήψατε, γρηγορήσατε· ὁ ἀντίδικος ὑμῶν διάβολος ὡς λέων ὠρυόμενος περιπατεῖ ζητῶν τίνα καταπίῃ.
9 Resístanlo firmes en la fe, sabiendo que sus hermanos en todo el mundo están pasando por los mismos sufrimientos.
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
9 ᾧ ἀντίστητε στερεοὶ τῇ πίστει, εἰδότες τὰ αὐτὰ τῶν παθημάτων τῇ ἐν κόσμῳ ὑμῶν ἀδελφότητι ἐπιτελεῖσθαι.
10 Y después de que ustedes hayan sufrido un poco de tiempo, el Dios de toda gracia, quien los llamó a su gloria eterna en Cristo Jesús, él mismo los perfeccionará, afirmará, fortalecerá y establecerá.
10 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
10 Ὁ δὲ Θεὸς πάσης χάριτος, ὁ καλέσας ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν αἰώνιον αὐτοῦ δόξαν ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ὀλίγον παθόντας, αὐτὸς καταρτίσει ὑμᾶς, στηρίξει, σθενώσει, θεμελιώσει·
11 A él sea la gloria y el poder por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
11 To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
11 αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα καὶ τὸ κράτος εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.
12 Por medio de Silvano, a quien considero un hermano fiel, les he escrito brevemente, exhortándolos y dando testimonio de que esta es la verdadera gracia de Dios. Permanezcan firmes en ella.
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
12 Διὰ Σιλουανοῦ ὑμῖν τοῦ πιστοῦ ἀδελφοῦ, ὡς λογίζομαι, δι᾽ ὀλίγων ἔγραψα, παρακαλῶν καὶ ἐπιμαρτυρῶν ταύτην εἶναι ἀληθῆ χάριν τοῦ Θεοῦ, εἰς ἣν ἑστήκατε.
13 La iglesia que está en Babilonia, escogida juntamente con ustedes, los saluda; también Marcos, mi hijo.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
13 Ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς ἡ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι συνεκλεκτὴ καὶ Μᾶρκος ὁ υἱός μου.
14 Salúdense unos a otros con un beso de amor. Paz a todos ustedes que están en Cristo Jesús. Amén.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
14 ἀσπάσασθε ἀλλήλους ἐν φιλήματι ἀγάπης. Εἰρήνη ὑμῖν πᾶσι τοῖς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
"For God," saith [the Scripture], "resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble." Let us cleave, then, to those to whom grace has been given by God.
… man, very skilful in medicine, and much renowned therein, who had with his own proconsular hand put the Agonistic garland upon my distempered head, not, though, as a physician; for this disease Thou alone healest, who resistest the proud, and givest grace to the humble. But didst Thou fail me even by that old man, or forbear from healing my …

… and lest from taking the wolf to be a sheep we become his prey, and from supposing the destroying Devil to be a beneficent Angel we be devoured: for, as the Scripture saith, he goeth about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

If a ravening and roaring lion, seeking what he may devour of our souls or of our words; or a wild boar, trampling under foot the precious and translucent pearls of the Truth; or an Arabian and alien wolf, or one keener even than these in tricks of argument; or a fox, that is a treacherous and faithless soul, changing …

For the King and Founder of this city of which we speak, has in Scripture uttered to His people a dictum of the divine law in these words: "God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble." But this, which is God's prerogative, the inflated ambition of a proud spirit also affects, and dearly loves that this be numbered …
