1 Peter 2:4-8 Unto whom going forth, to a living stone, indeed rejected by men, but elect with God, precious,

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Unto whom going forth, to a living stone, indeed rejected by men, but elect with God, precious, ⁵ and you, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, into a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, acceptable unto God through Jesus Christ. ⁶ Because it runs thus in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: and the one believing on him can not be ashamed. ⁷ Therefore to you who believe he is precious: but to the unbelievers, the stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of the corner, and the stone of stumbling, and the rock of offence, ⁸ who stumble over the word, disbelieving: unto which they indeed were appointed.
