As you come to him, the living Stone— rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him—

Christ is the living Stone. People did not accept him, but God chose him. God places the highest value on him.

As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious,

You are coming to Christ, who is the living cornerstone of God’s temple. He was rejected by people, but he was chosen by God for great honor.

As you come to him, a living stone— rejected by people but chosen and honored by God—

And coming to Him as to a living stone which has been rejected by people, but is choice and precious in the sight of God,

Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious,

unto whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed of men, but with God elect, precious,

Coming to Him, a living stone— rejected by men but chosen and valuable to God—

To whom coming,[ as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God,[ and] precious,

So as you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but chosen and priceless in God’s sight,

coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.

梓人所棄。竟成隅石。主之所為。神妙莫測。

耶穌者即「梓人所棄、竟成隅石」者是。舍彼而外、別無救主；普天之下、更無其他名義、可恃以獲救恩。』

斯石於爾等信賴之者、實為至寶。然於不信之徒、則曰：『梓人所棄、竟成隅石。』

耶穌曰：『予即復活！予即生命！凡置信於予者、雖死必生；生而置信於予者、永不死。汝信之否？』

基督乃吾人之真生命、一俟基督之顯、爾將與之同顯於光榮之中。

耶穌基督之僕兼宗徒、西門、伯鐸祿、致書於因我天主救主耶穌基督之仁義而與我輩一體共承無上之寶信者曰：

乃為基督之寶血。基督乃無玷無染之羔羊！

經云、「梓人所棄、竟成隅石；主之所為、神妙莫測；」爾未讀乎？』

而爾等獨不願歸予、以獲生命！

耶穌目之曰：『然則經中所云：梓人所棄、竟成隅石、果何謂乎？凡躓於斯石者、受傷必重、斯石而隕於其身、體則糜矣。』

當時吾人尚為天主之悖逆、且得緣其聖子之死、而與天主重相契合、今既重相契合、不更能緣其永生、而承無疆之休乎？

耶穌曰：『予即途也、真諦也、生命也。人欲諧父、舍予末由。

食吾體而飲吾血者、存乎我而我亦存乎其中也。

凡爾服勞負重之人、其咸來就我、我當與爾休息。

蓋父自具生命、賜子亦自具生命。

凡父所賜於予之人、必來歸予；來歸予者、予決不拒。

『斯乃吾僕、吾所簡擢；吾愛所鍾、吾心所樂；賦以吾神、宣義萬族；

耶穌曰：『經云、「梓人所棄、乃成基石；主之所為、神妙莫測；」爾豈未寓目耶？

瞬息之間、世將不復見予、爾獨見予。蓋予永生、爾亦因以有生焉。

然此乃所以鍛鍊爾之信德、而於耶穌基督顯現之日、玉成爾之光榮及天爵耳。夫黃金乃必朽之物、尚且以火煉之；而信德固貴於黃金也。

賴斯大榮大德、吾人復受有無上無疆之恩諾、俾吾人脫世俗縱情恣慾之腐敗惡習、得躋於神化之境、而融於天主之性。
