A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”

(B)“The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone,”

and

(C)“A stone of stumbling
And a rock of offense.”

(D)They stumble, being disobedient to the word, (E)to which they also were appointed.

  1. 1 Peter 2:7 NU disbelieve

Por lo cual también contiene la Escritura:

He aquí, pongo en Sion la principal piedra del ángulo, escogida, preciosa;

Y el que creyere en él, no será avergonzado.(A)

Para vosotros, pues, los que creéis, él es precioso; pero para los que no creen,

La piedra que los edificadores desecharon,

Ha venido a ser la cabeza del ángulo;(B)

y:

Piedra de tropiezo, y roca que hace caer,(C)

porque tropiezan en la palabra, siendo desobedientes; a lo cual fueron también destinados.
