5In like manner, ye young men, be subject to the ancients. And do you all insinuate humility one to another: for God resisteth the proud, but to the humble he giveth grace.

6Be you humbled therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in the time of visitation:

7Casting all your care upon him, for he hath care of you.

8Be sober and watch: because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about seeking whom he may devour.
