1 Peter 5:5-7 Likewise, you younger, submit yourselves to the elder. Yes, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility… Mosquitoes are not nationalised everywhere; but worries are. Their sting is not outwardly perceptible, but it is painful enough within. Some of our foreign friends want to know, as they retire to rest themselves, "How to make outdoor life attractive to mosquitoes?" — a humorous enough puzzle. We know, however, one thing — that mosquitoes come without our consent; but that we are foolish enough to invent worries — to entertain worries — and to do everything else with them but cast them where we know that all our cares may and ought to be cast. (W. M. Statham, M. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. |
