1 Peter 2:7 in Context — 1 Peter 2

5 Também vós, como pedras vivas, sois edificados como casa espiritual [e] sacerdócio santo, para oferecerdes sacrifícios espirituais, agradáveis a Deus por meio de Jesus Cristo.

6 Por isso também está contido na Escritura: Eis que eu ponho em Sião uma pedra principal de esquina, escolhida [e] preciosa. Quem nela crer de maneira nenhuma será envergonhado.

7 Assim, para vós, que credes, ela é preciosa. Mas para os rebeldes: A pedra que os construtores rejeitaram, essa se tornou a principal de esquina,

8 assim como pedra de tropeço, e pedra que causa queda. Eles tropeçam na palavra por serem rebeldes. Para isso eles foram destinados.

9 Mas vós sois a geração escolhida, o sacerdócio real, a nação santa, o povo adquirido; a fim de que anuncieis as virtudes daquele que vos chamou das trevas para a sua maravilhosa luz.
