8 and
“A stone that makes them stumble
and a rock that makes them fall.”
They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.(A)
9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people,[a] in order that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.(B)
10 Once you were not a people,
but now you are God’s people;
once you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.(C)
