1 Peter 2:8-10
21st Century King James Version
8 and, “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense,” even to those who stumble at the Word, being disobedient, unto which also they were appointed.
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
10 In times past ye were not a people, but are now the people of God; who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
