1 Peter 2:8-10
Good News Translation
8 (A)And another scripture says,
“This is the stone that will make people stumble,
the rock that will make them fall.”
They stumbled because they did not believe in the word; such was God's will for them.
9 (B)But you are the chosen race, the King's priests, the holy nation, God's own people, chosen to proclaim the wonderful acts of God, who called you out of darkness into his own marvelous light. 10 (C)At one time you were not God's people, but now you are his people; at one time you did not know God's mercy, but now you have received his mercy.
