^x“Behold, I am laying in Zion ^ya stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense;

^zand whoever believes in him will not be ^aput to shame.”

^t“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,

a cornerstone chosen and precious,

^uand whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

16  therefore thus says the Lord God,

^r“Behold, I am the one who has laid¹ as a foundation ^sin Zion,

a stone, a tested stone,

a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation:

‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’
