A Living Stone, A Chosen People

⁴ Unto whom going forth, to a living stone, indeed rejected by men, but elect with God, precious, ⁵ and you, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, into a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, acceptable unto God through Jesus Christ. ⁶ Because it runs thus in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: and the one believing on him can not be ashamed.
