1 Peter 2:4-8
21st Century King James Version
4 Coming to Him as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious,
5 ye also as living stones are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture: “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious; and he that believeth in Him shall not be confounded.”
7 Unto you therefore who believe, He is precious; but unto those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,”
8 and, “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense,” even to those who stumble at the Word, being disobedient, unto which also they were appointed.

1 Peter 2:4-8
English Standard Version
4 As you come to him, a living stone (A)rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 (B)you yourselves like living stones are being built up as (C)a spiritual house, to be (D)a holy priesthood, (E)to offer spiritual sacrifices (F)acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture:
(G)“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
(H)and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”
7 So the honor is for you who (I)believe, but for those who (J)do not believe,
8 and
(L)“A stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense.”
They stumble because they disobey the word, (M)as they were destined to do.
