  you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
  "Behold, I lay in Zion
  A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
  And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame." Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,
  "The stone which the builders rejected
  Has become the chief cornerstone,"
