1 Peter 2:9-10

9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people,[a] in order that you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
10 Once you were not a people,

once you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.
