The vital building-stone and the believers

1 Pet 2:4–10

2:4 The vital building-stone and the believers

4 As you chosen people approach the living building-stone (which was rejected by humans yet chosen and honoured by God), 5 you’re being built into a temple and joining a holy group of priests to offer up spiritual sacrifices that are acceptable to God through Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) the messiah, 6 because it’s written in the scriptures:

‘Look, I’m placing a building-stone in Tsiyon (Zion),

the vital cornerstone that’s chosen and honoured,

and anyone who believes in him certainly won’t be disgraced.’[ref]

7 To all of you who believe, this cornerstone is valuable, but to those who don’t believe:

‘The building-stone which the builders rejected

ended up becoming the vital cornerstone.’[ref]

8 and he’ll be:

‘A stone that people stumble over

and a rock that upsets people.’[ref]

They stumble because they won’t believe in the message—this is what was appointed for them.

9 But you believers are a chosen tribe, a group of royal priests, a holy nation,[ref] a people group that God has procured,[ref] so that you can tell others about the virtues of the one[ref] who called you out of darkness and into his marvellous light.[ref] 10 Previously you weren’t a people group, but now you’re God’s people—previously you hadn’t been shown mercy, but now you have been.[ref]

4 To whom approaching a_ living _stone, on_one_hand having_been_rejected by humans, on_the_other_hand chosen by god, honoured,
5 also yourselves as living stones you_all_are_being_built, a_ spiritual _house, into a_ holy _priesthood to_offer_up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to_god through Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) chosen_one/messiah.
6 Because it_is_contained in in_scripture:
Behold, I_am_laying a_stone in Siōn/(Tsiyyōn), a_cornerstone chosen honoured, and the one believing in him, by_no_means may_ not _be_disgraced.
7 Therefore is the value to_you_all, the ones believing, but to_disbelieving ones The_stone which the ones building rejected, this was_become to the_head of_the_corner,
8 and:
A_stone of_stumbling, and a_rock of_offense, who are_stumbling disbelieving in_the message, to which also they_were_appointed.
9 But you_all are a_ chosen _race:
a_royal priesthood, a_ holy _nation, a_people for his_procuring, so_that the virtues you_all_may_proclaim_out, of_the one having_called you_all out_of darkness, to the marvellous light of_him,
10 who once were not a_people, but now are the_people of_god, the ones not having_been_shown_mercy, and now having_been_shown_mercy.
