²² A stone the builders refused Hath become head of a corner.

¹⁷ and he, having looked upon them, said, `What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected -- this became head of a corner?

⁴² Jesus saith to them, `Did ye never read in the Writings, A stone that the builders disallowed, it became head of a corner; from the Lord hath this come to pass, and it is wonderful in our eyes.

¹¹ `This is the stone that was set at nought by you -- the builders, that became head of a corner;

²⁰ being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner-`stone',

²¹ in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,

²² in whom also ye are builded together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

⁴ to whom coming -- a living stone -- by men, indeed, having been disapproved of, but with God choice, precious,

⁵ and ye yourselves, as living stones, are built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

⁶ Wherefore, also, it is contained in the Writing: `Lo, I lay in Zion a chief corner-stone, choice, precious, and he who is believing on him may not be put to shame;'

⁷ to you, then, who are believing `is' the preciousness; and to the unbelieving, a stone that the builders disapproved of, this one did become for the head of a corner,

⁸ and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence -- who are stumbling at the word, being unbelieving, -- to which also they were set;

¹⁰ And this Writing did ye not read: A stone that the builders rejected, it did become the head of a corner:

¹¹ from the Lord was this, and it is wonderful in our eyes.'

⁷ Who `art' thou, O great mountain Before Zerubbabel -- for a plain! And he hath brought forth the top-stone, Cries of Grace, grace -- `are' to it.'
