1 Petrus 2:6-7

2:6 For it says ¹  in scripture, “Look, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and priceless cornerstone, ²  and whoever believes ³  in him ⁴  will never ⁵  be put to shame.” ⁶  2:7 So you who believe see ⁷  his value, ⁸  but for those who do not believe, the stone that the builders rejected has become the ⁹  cornerstone, ¹⁰ 

1 Petrus 3:6

3:6 like Sarah who obeyed ¹¹  Abraham, calling him lord. You become her children ¹²  when you do what is good and have no fear in doing so. ¹³ 

[2:6]  ¹ tn Grk “it contains,” “it stands.”

[2:6]  ² tn Grk “chosen, priceless.”

[2:6]  ³ tn Grk “the one who believes.”

[2:6]  ⁴ tn Grk either “in him” or “in it,” but the OT and NT uses personify the stone as the King, the Messiah whom God will establish in Jerusalem.

[2:6]  ⁵ tn The negative (οὐ μή, ou mh) is emphatic: “will certainly not.”

[2:6]  ⁶ sn A quotation from Isa 28:16.

[2:7]  ⁷ tn Grk “to you who believe is the value,” referring to their perception of the stone in contrast to those who reject (vv. 7b-8). But the expression may also be translated as “to you who believe is this honor,” referring to the lack of shame cited in v. 6b.

[2:7]  ⁸ tn Grk “the value” or “the honor,” but the former is preferred since it comes from the same root as “priceless” in vv. 4, 6, and it is in contrast to the negative estimate of the stone by those who reject (vv. 7b-8).

[2:7]  ⁹ tn Grk “the head of the corner.”

[2:7]  ¹⁰ sn A quotation from Ps 118:22 (cf. Matt 21:42; Mark 12:10; Luke 20:17; Acts 4:11).

[3:6]  ¹¹ tn Grk “as Sarah obeyed.”

[3:6]  ¹² tn Grk “whose children you become.”

[3:6]  ¹³ tn Grk “doing good and not fearing any intimidation.”
