"if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:"
— 1 Peter 2:3, World English Bible
“If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.”
“if ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious: ”
“if you have experienced the Lord’s kindness.”
“If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet.”
“If you have had a taste of the grace of the Lord:”
“If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.”
Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:
coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
You 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.
Because it is contained in Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, and precious: He who believes in him will not be disappointed."
