¹⁶ Therefore the Lord God said:
“Look, I have laid a stone^(A) in Zion,
a tested stone,
a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation;^(B)
the one who believes will be unshakable.^[a](C)

¹⁴ He will be a sanctuary;^(A)
but for the two houses of Israel,
he will be a stone^(B) to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,^(C)
and a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.^[a]
This is what the Lord has done
and it is wonderful in our eyes?^[b](A)

Look, I am putting a stone in Zion to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,
and the one who believes on him^(A)
will not be put to shame.^[a](B)
