1 Peter 2:1-5

¹Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking, ²as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that with it you may grow, ³if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious: ⁴coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious. ⁵You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 2:1-5
