16 Therefore this is what the Lord [a]God says:

(A)Behold, I am laying a stone in Zion, a tested (B)stone,
A precious cornerstone for the foundation, [b]firmly placed.
The one who believes in it will not be [c]disturbed.
17 I will make (C)justice the measuring line
And righteousness the level;
Then (D)hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
And the waters will overflow the secret place.
