1 Petrus 2:6

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 

1 Petrus 2:23

2:23 When he was maligned, he ⁷  did not answer back; when he suffered, he threatened ⁸  no retaliation, ⁹  but committed himself to God ¹⁰  who judges justly.

1 Petrus 4:17

4:17 For it is time for judgment to begin, starting with the house ¹¹  of God. And if it starts with us, what will be the fate ¹²  of those who are disobedient to the gospel of God?

[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.

[2:23]  ⁷ tn Grk “who being maligned,” continuing the reference to Christ. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:23]  ⁸ tn Grk “he did not threaten, but.”

[2:23]  ⁹ sn An allusion to Isa 53:7.

[2:23]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “to the one”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[4:17]  ¹¹ tn Grk “to begin from the house.”

[4:17]  ¹² tn Or “the end.”
