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.

Because it is said in the Writings, See, I am placing a keystone in Zion, of great and special value; and the man who has faith in him will not be put to shame.

δια τουτο και περιεχεται εν τη γραφη· Ιδου, θετω εν Σιων λιθον ακρογωνιαιον, εκλεκτον, εντιμον, και ο πιστευων επ' αυτον δεν θελει καταισχυνθη.

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.
