1 Peter 2:4-6 Come to Him, the ever-living Stone, rejected indeed by men as worthless, but in God's esteem chosen and held in honour.

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Come to Him, the ever-living Stone, rejected indeed by men as worthless, but in God's esteem chosen and held in honour. ⁵ And be yourselves also like living stones that are being built up into a spiritual house, to become a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ⁶ For it is contained in Scripture, "SEE, I AM PLACING ON MOUNT ZION A CORNERSTONE, CHOSEN, AND HELD IN HONOUR, AND HE WHOSE FAITH RESTS ON HIM SHALL NEVER HAVE REASON TO FEEL ASHAMED."
