1 Peter 2:4-8
New King James Version
The Chosen Stone and His Chosen People(A)
4 Coming to Him as to a living stone, (B)rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, 5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
(C)“Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”
7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who [a]are disobedient,
(D)“The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone,”
8 and
(E)“A stone of stumbling
And a rock of offense.”
(F)They stumble, being disobedient to the word, (G)to which they also were appointed.

Until (D)Messiah (E)the Prince,

Even in troublesome times.

(F)Messiah shall [f]be cut off, (G)but not for Himself;
And (H)the people of the prince who is to come
(I)Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 Then he shall confirm (J)a [g]covenant with (K)many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
(L)Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the [h]desolate.”

Hebrews 10:10-18
New King James Version
10 (A)By that will we have been [a]sanctified (B)through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Christ’s Death Perfects the Sanctified
11 And every priest stands (C)ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 (D)But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down (E)at the right hand of God, 13 from that time waiting (F)till His enemies are made His footstool. 14 For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being [b]sanctified.
15 But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,
16 (G)“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” 17 then He adds, (H)“Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” 18 Now where there is [c]remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.
