1 Peter 2:9-10 But ye are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for an acquired possession, so that ye might broadly proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ But ye are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for an acquired possession, so that ye might broadly proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. ¹⁰ Men formerly not a people, but now are a people of God. Men who had not obtained mercy, but who now have obtained mercy.
