1 Peter 2:4-6

English Standard Version

⁴As you come to him, a living stone ^(A)rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, ⁵^(B)you yourselves like living stones are being built up as ^(C)a spiritual house, to be ^(D)a holy priesthood, ^(E)to offer spiritual sacrifices ^(F)acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ⁶For it stands in Scripture:

^(G)“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
^(H)and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”
