1 Peter 2:4

A Living Stone, a Chosen People

2:4 So as you come to him,¹ a living stone rejected by men but² chosen and priceless³ in God’s sight,

1 Peter 3:4

Context
3:4 but the inner person⁴ of the heart, the lasting beauty of a gentle and tranquil spirit, which is precious in God’s sight.

¹tn Grk “to whom coming…you are built up…” as a continuation of the reference to the Lord in v. 3.

²tn Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two phrases more than can be easily expressed in English.

³tn Grk “chosen, priceless.”

⁴tn Grk “the hidden man.” KJV’s “the hidden man of the heart,” referring to a wife, could be seriously misunderstood by the modern English reader.
