Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

5:1
Πρεσβυτέρους οὖν τοὺς ἐν ὑμῖν παρακαλῶ ὁ συμπρεσβύτερος καὶ μάρτυς τῶν τοῦ Χριστοῦ παθημάτων, ὁ καὶ τῆς μελλούσης ἀποκαλύπτεσθαι δόξης κοινωνός·
Seniores ergo, qui in vobis sunt, obsecro, consenior et testis Christi passionum : qui et ejus, quae in futuro revelanda est, gloriae communicator :
ወለእለኒ ይትለሀቁ እምኔክሙ አስተበቍዖሙ አነ ልሂቅ ካልኦሙ ወሰማዕት በእንተ ሕማሙ ለክርስቶስ ዘሀለዎ ያስተርኢ በስብሐቲሁ ከመ ትኩኑ ሱታፎ።
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:
5:2
ποιμάνατε τὸ ἐν ὑμῖν ποίμνιον τοῦ θεοῦ, μὴ ἀναγκαστῶς ἀλλὰ ἑκουσίως κατὰ θεόν, μηδὲ αἰσχροκερδῶς ἀλλὰ προθύμως,
pascite qui in vobis est gregem Dei, providentes non coacte, sed spontanee secundum Deum : neque turpis lucri gratia, sed voluntarie :
ረዐዩ ዘሀለዉ ኀቤክሙ መርዔቶ ለእግዚአብሔር እንዘ ተዐቅብዎሙ ወኢትቅንይዎሙ በኵርህ አላ በጽድቅ በእንተ እግዚአብሔር እንዘ ኢትትሬብሕዎሙ አላ በምልአ ልብክሙ ወበትፍሥሕት።
shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
5:3
μηδ’ ὡς κατακυριεύοντες τῶν κλήρων ἀλλὰ τύποι γινόμενοι τοῦ ποιμνίου·
neque ut dominantes in cleris, sed forma facti gregis ex animo.
እንዘ ኢትትኄየሉ ሕዝቦ አላ አርኣያ ኩንዎሙ ለመርዔቱ።
not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
5:4
καὶ φανερωθέντος τοῦ ἀρχιποίμενος κομιεῖσθε τὸν ἀμαράντινον τῆς δόξης στέφανον.
Et cum apparuerit princeps pastorum, percipietis immarcescibilem gloriae coronam.
ከመ አመ ያስተርኢ እግዚአ ኖሎት ትንሥኡ አክሊለ ስብሐት ዘኢይጸመሂ።
When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
5:5
Ὁμοίως νεώτεροι ὑποτάγητε πρεσβυτέροις, πάντες δὲ ἀλλήλοις τὴν ταπεινοφροσύνην ἐγκομβώσασθε, ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ὑπερηφάνοις ἀντιτάσσεται, ταπεινοῖς δὲ δίδωσιν χάριν.
Similiter adolescentes subditi estote senioribus. Omnes autem invicem humilitatem insinuate, quia Deus superbis resistit, humilibus autem dat gratiam.
ወከማሁ አንትሙሂ ወራዙት ተኰነኑ ለእለ ይልህቁክሙ ወኵልክሙ ተመሀርዋ ለአትሕቶ ርእስክሙ እስመ እግዚአብሔር ያኀሥሮሙ ለዕቡያን ወያከብሮሙ ለእለ ያቴሕቱ ርእሶሙ።
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.”
5:6
ταπεινώθητε οὖν ὑπὸ τὴν κραταιὰν χεῖραν τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα ὑμᾶς ὑψώσῃ ἐν καιρῷ,
Humiliamini igitur sub potenti manu Dei, ut vos exaltet in tempore visitationis :
አትሕቱ እንከ ርእሰክሙ ታሕተ እዴሁ ለእግዚአብሔር ጽንዕት ከመ ያልዕልክሙ አመ ይሔውጸክሙ።
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
5:7
πᾶσαν τὴν μέριμναν ὑμῶν ἐπιρίψαντες ἐπ’ αὐτόν, ὅτι αὐτῷ μέλει περὶ ὑμῶν.
omnem sollicitudinem vestram projicientes in eum, quoniam ipsi cura est de vobis.
ወኵሎ ኅሊናክሙ ግድፉ ላዕሌሁ እስመ ውእቱ ይኄሊ በእንቲኣክሙ።
casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
5:8
Νήψατε, γρηγορήσατε. ὁ ἀντίδικος ὑμῶν διάβολος ὡς λέων ὠρυόμενος περιπατεῖ ζητῶν τίνα καταπιεῖν·
Sobrii estote, et vigilate : quia adversarius vester diabolus tamquam leo rugiens circuit, quaerens quem devoret :
ጥበቡ እንከ ወአጥብቡ ልበክሙ እስመ ጸላኢክሙ ጋኔን ይጥሕር ከመ አንበሳ ወየኀሥሥ ዘይውኅጥ።
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
5:9
ᾧ ἀντίστητε στερεοὶ τῇ πίστει, εἰδότες τὰ αὐτὰ τῶν παθημάτων τῇ ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ὑμῶν ἀδελφότητι ἐπιτελεῖσθαι.
cui resistite fortes in fide : scientes eamdem passionem ei quae in mundo est vestrae fraternitati fieri.
አጽንዑ ቀዊመ በሃይማኖትክሙ እንዘ ተአምሩ ከመ ሕማሙ ለዝ ዓለም ትረክቦሙ ለኵሎሙ አኀዊክሙ ወአጽንዕዋ ለተፋቅሮ።
Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
5:10
ὁ δὲ θεὸς πάσης χάριτος, ὁ καλέσας ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν αἰώνιον αὐτοῦ δόξαν ἐν Χριστῷ, ὀλίγον παθόντας αὐτὸς καταρτίσει, στηρίξει, σθενώσει, θεμελιώσει.
Deus autem omnis gratiae, qui vocavit nos in aeternam suam gloriam in Christo Jesu, modicum passos ipse perficiet, confirmabit, solidabitque.
ወእግዚአብሔርሰ ዘበኵሉ ክብር ጸውዐክሙ ውስተ ዘለዓለም ስብሐቲሁ በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ወኅዳጠ ሐሚመክሙ ውእቱ ይፌጽም ለክሙ ወያጸንዐክሙ ወያሌብወክሙ።
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.
5:11
αὐτῷ τὸ κράτος εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων, ἀμήν.
Ipsi gloria, et imperium in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
ውእቱ ዘሎቱ ስብሐት ወኀይል ለዓለመ ዓለም አሜን።
To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
5:12
Διὰ Σιλουανοῦ ὑμῖν τοῦ πιστοῦ ἀδελφοῦ, ὡς λογίζομαι, δι’ ὀλίγων ἔγραψα, παρακαλῶν καὶ ἐπιμαρτυρῶν ταύτην εἶναι ἀληθῆ χάριν τοῦ θεοῦ· εἰς ἣν στῆτε.
Per Silvanum fidelem fratrem vobis, ut arbitror, breviter scripsi : obsecrans et contestans, hanc esse veram gratiam Dei, in qua statis.
ምስለ ስልዋኖስ እኁነ ምእመን በከመ ኀለይኩ ኅዳጠ ጸሐፍኩ ለክሙ እንዘ አስተበቍዐክሙ ወእከውን ስምዐ ከመ በአማን ስብሐቲሁ ለእግዚአብሔር ዛቲ እንተ ባቲ ትቀውሙ።
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.
5:13
ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς ἡ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι συνεκλεκτὴ καὶ Μᾶρκος ὁ υἱός μου.
Salutat vos ecclesia quae est in Babylone coëlecta, et Marcus filius meus.
ትኤምኀክሙ ቤተ ክርስቲያን ኅሪት እንተ ውስተ ባቢሎን ዘግብጽ ወማርቆስ ወልድየ።
She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
5:14
ἀσπάσασθε ἀλλήλους ἐν φιλήματι ἀγάπης. Εἰρήνη ὑμῖν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἐν Χριστῷ.
Salutate invicem in osculo sancto. Gratia vobis omnibus qui estis in Christo Jesu. Amen.
ተአምኁ በበይናቲክሙ በአምኃ ተፋቅሮ ወተሰናአዉ ኵልክሙ እለ በክርስቶስ ሀሎክሙ ጸጋ ምስለ ኵልክሙ። አሜን። መልአት መልእክተ ጴጥሮስ ቀዳሚት። ወስብሐት ለእግዚአብሔር አሜን።
Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
