Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
Wherefore {G1352} also {G2532} it is contained {G4023} in {G1722} the scripture {G1124}, Behold {G2400}, I lay {G5087} in {G1722} Sion {G4622} a chief corner {G204} stone {G3037}, elect {G1588}, precious {G1784}: and {G2532} he that believeth {G4100} on {G1909} him {G846} shall {G2617} not be {G3364} confounded {G2617}.
This is why the Tanakh says,
“Look! I am laying in Tziyon a stone,
a chosen and precious cornerstone;
and whoever rests his trust on it
will certainly not be humiliated.”
“Look! I am laying in Tziyon a stone,
a chosen and precious cornerstone;
and whoever rests his trust on it
will certainly not be humiliated.”
For it stands in Scripture: “See, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and precious cornerstone; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
Because it is contained in scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
