1 Peter 2:5-7
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
5 you yourselves also as living stones are being built[a] as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 Because it is contained in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying a Stone in Zion— a chosen, precious Cornerstone. And the one putting-faith upon Him will never be put-to-shame” [Isa 28:16]. 7 The precious-value then is for you, the ones believing. But for ones not-believing: “The Stone which the ones building rejected, this became the head[b] of the corner” [Ps 118:22]
