So elders constantly meditate on the words that the apostle Peter wrote to those with authority in the congregation: “Shepherd the flock of God in your care, not under compulsion, but willingly; neither for love of dishonest gain, but eagerly; neither as lording it over those who are God’s inheritance, but becoming examples to the flock. ” ​ — 1 Peter 5: 2, 3; 1 Thessalonians 2: 7, 8.
और जो लोग तुम्हें सौंपे गए हैं, उन पर अधिकार न जताओ, बरन झुंड के लिये आदर्श बनो । ” — 1 पतरस 5: 2, 3; 1 थिस्सलुनीकियों 2: 7, 8.
