“Then He shall be a sanctuary [a sacred, indestructible shelter for those who fear and trust Him];
But to both the houses of Israel [both the northern and southern kingdoms—Israel and Judah, He will be] a stone on which to stumble and a rock on which to trip,
A trap and a snare for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.(A)

Then they will fall and be broken,
They will even be snared and trapped.”

And the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
