En pro gregis custódia nullos labóres néglegunt, tutántur illum, sánius impertiéntes pábulum.
To safeguard the flock, they spare no effort, guarding it and nurturing it with sound doctrine.

They chase the wolves from their land, drive away brigands, feed the sheep richly, and never forsake the cattle.

Lectio brevis (1 Petr 5, 1-4)
Senióres, qui in vobis sunt, óbsecro, consénior et testis Christi passiónum, qui et eius, quæ in futúro revelánda est glóriæ communicátor: Páscite, qui est in vobis, grégem Dei, providéntes non coácto sed spontánee secúndum Deum, neque turpis lucri grátia sed voluntárie, neque ut dominántes in cleris sed formæ facti gregis. Et cum apparúerit Princeps pastórum, percipiétis immarcescíbilem glóriæ corónam.
The ancients therefore that are among you, I beseech, who am myself also an ancient, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ: as also a partaker of that glory which is to be revealed in time to come: Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking care of it, not by constraint, but willingly, according to God: not for filthy lucre's sake, but voluntarily: Neither as lording it over the clergy, but being made a pattern of the flock from the heart. And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a never fading crown of glory.
