American Standard Version
1 Peter 2:4-9
4unto whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed of men, but with God elect, precious, 5ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6Because it is contained in scripture,
Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious:And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
7For you therefore that believe is the preciousness: but for such as disbelieve,
The stone which the builders rejected,The same was made the head of the corner;
8and,
A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence;
for they stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. 9But ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
