1 Peter 2:8-10
New Matthew Bible
8 and a stone to stumble at, and a rock to offend those who stumble at the word and do not believe that whereon they were set.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and his own special people, in order that you should show forth the virtues of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light – 10 you who in time past were not a people, yet are now the people of God; who were not under mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
