1 Peter 2:6-8
New International Version
1 Peter 2:6-8
New International Version
6 For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,(A)
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame.”[a](B)
7 Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe,(C)
8 and,
They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.(G)

6 For it is contained in Scripture:
Look! I lay a stone in Zion,(A)
a chosen and honored[a] cornerstone,[b](B)
and the one who believes in Him
will never be put to shame[d]
7 So honor will come to you who believe, but for the unbelieving,
8 and
They stumble because they disobey the message; they were destined(F) for this.
