6 For this is contained in Scripture:
“aBehold, I lay in Zion a choice stone, a bprecious corner stone,
And he who believes upon Him will not be put to shame.”
7 aThis precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for those who disbelieve,
“bThe stone which the builders crejected,
This has become the chief corner stone,”
8 and,
“aA stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.”
bThey stumble because they are disobedient to the word, cand to this stumbling they were also appointed.
