The First Letter of Peter 5: 1-4

5:1 Perciò, I beg the elders who are among you, as one who is also an elder and a witness of the Passion of Christ, who also shares in that glory which is to be revealed in the future:
5:2 pasture the flock of God that is among you, providing for it, not as a requirement, but willingly, in accordo con Dio, and not for the sake of tainted profit, but freely,
5:3 not so as to dominate by means of the clerical state, but so as to be formed into a flock from the heart.
5:4 And when the Leader of pastors will have appeared, you shall secure an unfading crown of glory.

The Holy Gospel According to Matthew 16: 13-19

16:13 Then Jesus went into parts of Caesarea Philippi. And he questioned his disciples, detto, “Who do men say that the Son of man is?"
16:14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, still others say Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
16:15 disse loro Gesù, “But who do you say that I am?"
16:16 Simon Peter responded by saying, “Tu sei il Cristo, the Son of the living God.”
16:17 And in response, gli disse Gesù: “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. Perché la carne e il sangue non te lo hanno rivelato, but my Father, who is in heaven.
16:18 E ti dico, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
16:19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.”
