⁴⁴ And ^(A)whoever falls on this stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, ^(B)it will grind him to powder.”

²³ but we preach Christ crucified, ^(A)to the Jews a ^[a]stumbling block and to the ^[b]Greeks ^(B)foolishness,

³² Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, ^[a]by the works of the law. For ^(A)they stumbled at that stumbling stone.

^66 (A)From that time many of His disciples went ^[a]back and walked with Him no more.

¹⁷ Then He looked at them and said, “What then is this that is written:

¹⁸ Whoever falls on that stone will be ^(B)broken; but ^(C)on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.”

¹⁴ Let them alone. ^(A)They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”

⁶ And blessed is he who is not ^(A)offended because of Me.”
