1 Peter 2.6 dioti periecei en grafh:

Behold, I lay for the foundation
of Sion
a costly stone, a choice, a cornerstone,
a precious stone, for its foundations: and he that believes
on
him shall by no means be ashamed
|
Romans 9.33: even as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame Romans 10.11: For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be put to shame 1 Peter 2.6: 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 |
therefore, thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not be in haste |
| Comments: The MT omits the notion of being
“put to shame.” The NIV says, “the one who trusts will never be dismayed.”
The RSV: “He who believes will not be in haste.” The NRSV:
“One who trusts will not panic.”
In Romans 9.33, “stumbling stone” is supplied by Isaiah 8.14. As a minor point, the agreement with the Septuagint is stronger if Codices Alexandrinus and Sinaiticus are considered. These both include ep autw (on him), omitted from Brenton’s text above. |
