1 Peter 2:8-10
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
8 and “a Stone of stumbling and a Rock of [a] falling” [Isa 8:14]— who stumble while[b] disobeying the word, to which indeed they were appointed[c].
And You Are Chosen By God To Report His Virtues To The World
9 And you are a chosen family[d], a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His possession, so that you may report the virtues[e] of the One having called you out of darkness into His marvelous light— 10 who once were not a people, but now are the people of God; the ones not having received-mercy, but now having received-mercy.
