6 For this is contained in [a]Scripture:
“(A)Behold, I lay in Zion a choice stone, a (B)precious corner stone,
And he who believes in [b]Him will not be [c]disappointed.”

“(F)A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”;
(G)for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, (H)and to this doom they were also appointed.
