    1 Peter 5
    • 1   The elders therefore among you I exhort, who am a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, who am also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
    • 2   Tend the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not of constraint, but willingly, according to the will of God; nor yet for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
    • 3   neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you, but making yourselves ensamples to the flock.
    • 4   And when the chief Shepherd shall be manifested, ye shall receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away.
    • 5   Likewise, ye younger, be subject unto the elder. Yea, all of you gird yourselves with humility, to serve one another: for God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.
    • 6   Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;
    • 7   casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you.
    • 8   Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
    • 9   whom withstand stedfast in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are accomplished in your brethren who are in the world.
    • 10   And the God of all grace, who called you unto his eternal glory in Christ, after that ye have suffered a little while, shall himself perfect, establish, strengthen you.
    • 11   To him be the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
    • 12   By Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I accounthim, I have written unto you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God: stand ye fast therein.
    • 13   She that is in Babylon, elect together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Mark my son.
    • 14   Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be unto you all that are in Christ.

    The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.

    The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.

    While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.

    Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.
