1 Peter 2:4-9
4To whom comingG4334, a livingG2198 stoneG3037, cast away indeedG3303 as worthless by menG444, but with 1GodG2316 chosen, preciousG1784,
5yourselves alsoG2532, as livingG2198 stonesG3037, are being builtG3618 up a spiritualG4152 houseG3624, a holyG40 priesthoodG2406, to offerG399 spiritualG4152 sacrificesG2378 acceptableG2144 to 2GodG2316 by JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
6Because it is contained in the scriptureG1124: BeholdG2400, I lay in ZionG4622 a corner stoneG3037, electG1588, preciousG1784: and he that believesG4100 on him shall not be putG5087 to shameG2617.
7To you thereforeG3767 who believeG4100 [is] the preciousness; but to the disobedient, the stoneG3037 which the builders cast away as worthless, this is becomeG1096 headG2776 of [the] cornerG1137,
8and a stoneG3037 of stumbling and rockG4073 of offence; [who] stumble at the wordG3056, being disobedientG544 to which alsoG2532 they have been appointedG5087.
9But ye [are] a chosen raceG1085, a kingly priesthoodG2406, a holyG40 nationG1484, a peopleG2992 for a possessionG4047, that ye might set forth the excellencies of him who has calledG2564 you out of darknessG4655 to his wonderful lightG5457;
