19 But God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: ^a“The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone ^bwho names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.”

1 Peter 2:6-8

6 For it stands in Scripture:

^c“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
^dand whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”
7 So the honor is for you who ^ebelieve, but for those who ^fdo not believe,

^g“The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,” ^{▼▼Greek the head of the corner}
8 and

ⁱ“A stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense.”
They stumble because they disobey the word, ^jas they were destined to do.
