1 Peter 5:5-11 - Instructions For Christians
5 Again, you younger men should show deference to the older. And all of you should put on the badge of humility in mutual service, for 'God is opposed to the proud, but gives his help to the humble.'
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you in his good time, 7 laying all your anxieties upon him, for he makes you his care.
8 Exercise self-control, be watchful. Your adversary, the Devil, like a roaring lion, is prowling about, eager to devour you. 9 Stand firm against him, strong in your faith; knowing, as you do, that the very sufferings which you are undergoing are being endured to the full by your Brotherhood throughout the world.
10 God, from whom all help comes, and who called you, by your union with Christ, into his eternal glory, will, when you have suffered for a little while, himself perfect, establish, strengthen you. 11 To him be ascribed dominion for ever. Amen.
