1 Peter 2:4-8

RKJNT(i) 4 Coming to him as to a living stone, rejected by men, but chosen by God, and precious, 5 You also, as living stones, are being built up into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For this is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a cornerstone, chosen and precious: and he who believes in him shall not be put to shame. 7 Therefore, to you who believe, he is precious: but to those who disbelieve, the stone which the builders rejected has become the very cornerstone, 8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence; they stumble at the word, being disobedient: as they were appointed to do.
