1Peter:2:4 @
unto whom coming ,
a living stone ,
rejected indeed of men ,
but with God elect ,
precious ,
asv @
1Peter:2:5 @
ye also ,
as living stones ,
are built up a spiritual house ,
to be a holy priesthood ,
to offer up spiritual sacrifices ,
acceptable to God through Jesus Christ .
asv @
1Peter:2:6 @
Because it is contained in scripture ,
Behold ,
I lay in Zion a chief corner stone ,
elect ,
precious :
And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame .
asv @
1Peter:2:7 @
For you therefore that believe is the preciousness :
but for such as disbelieve ,
The stone which the builders rejected ,
The same was made the head of the corner ;
asv @
1Peter:2:8 @
and ,
A stone of stumbling ,
and a rock of offence ;
for they stumble at the word ,
being disobedient :
whereunto also they were appointed .
asv @
1Peter:2:9 @
But ye are a elect race ,
a royal priesthood ,
a holy nation ,
a people for God '
s own possession ,
that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light :
asv @
1Peter:2:10 @
who in time past were no people ,
but now are the people of God :
who had not obtained mercy ,
but now have obtained mercy .
asv @
1Peter:2:11 @
Beloved ,
I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims ,
to abstain from fleshly lust ,
which war against the soul ;
asv @
1Peter:2:12 @
having your behavior seemly among the Gentiles ;
that ,
wherein they speak against you as evil-doers ,
they may by your good works ,
which they behold ,
glorify God in the day of visitation .
