# Have you not read this scripture?

This can be stated in active form. AT: "the Lord made into the cornerstone"
# This was from the Lord
"The Lord has done this"
# it is marvelous in our eyes
Here "in our eyes" stands for seeing, which is a metaphor for the people's opinion. AT: "we have seen it and think that it is marvelous" or "we think that it is wonderful" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
