1 Peter 2:5-7

Christian Standard Bible

⁵you yourselves, as living stones, a spiritual house, are being built to be a holy priesthood^[a] to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God^(A) through Jesus Christ. ⁶For it stands in Scripture:

See, I lay a stone in Zion,^(B)
a chosen and honored^[b] cornerstone,^(C)
and the one who believes in him
will never be put to shame.^[c]^(D)

⁷So honor will come to you who believe; but for the unbelieving,

The stone that the builders rejected—
this one has become the cornerstone,^[d]^(E)
