16 therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “Here I am laying* as a foundation in Zion+ a stone,*+ a tried stone,+ the precious corner+ of a sure foundation.*+ No one exercising faith will get panicky.*+

7 Who are you, O great mountain?+ Before Ze·rubʹba·bel+ [you will become] a level land. And he will certainly bring forth the headstone.+ There will be shoutings+ to it: “How charming! How charming!”’”+

17 But he looked upon them and said: “What, then, does this that is written mean, ‘The stone which the builders rejected,+ this has become the chief cornerstone’?+

11 This is ‘the stone that was treated by YOU builders as of no account that has become the head of the corner.’+

11 For no man can lay any other foundation+ than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ.+

20 and YOU have been built up upon the foundation*+ of the apostles+ and prophets,+ while Christ Jesus himself is the foundation cornerstone.+

6 For it is contained in Scripture: “Look! I am laying in Zion a stone, chosen, a foundation cornerstone, precious; and no one exercising faith in it will by any means come to disappointment.”*+
