1 Peter 2:6-8

English Standard Version

⁶For it stands in Scripture:

^(A)“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
^(B)and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

⁷So the honor is for you who ^(C)believe, but for those who ^(D)do not believe,

^(E)“The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,”^[a]

⁸and

^(F)“A stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense.”

They stumble because they disobey the word, ^(G)as they were destined to do.

1 Peter 2:6-8

New American Standard Bible

⁶For this is contained in ^[a]Scripture:

“^(A)Behold, I am laying in Zion a choice stone, a ^(B)precious cornerstone,
And the one who believes in ^[b]Him will not be ^[c]put to shame.”

⁷^(C)This precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for unbelievers,

“^(D)A stone which the builders ^(E)rejected,
This became the ^[d]chief cornerstone,”

⁸and,

“^(F)A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”;

^(G)for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, ^(H)and to this they were also appointed.
