1 Peter 2:6-8

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

⁶ Because it is contained in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying a Stone in Zion— a chosen, precious Cornerstone. And the one putting-faith upon Him will never be put-to-shame” [Isa 28:16]. ⁷ The precious-value then is for you, the ones believing. But for ones not-believing: “The Stone which the ones building rejected, this became the head^[a] of the corner” [Ps 118:22] ⁸ and “a Stone of stumbling and a Rock of ^[b] falling” [Isa 8:14]— who stumble while^[c] disobeying the word, to which indeed they were appointed^[d].
