Isaiah 8:14-15
Amplified Bible
14
“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)
15
“Many [among them] will stumble over them;
Then they will fall and be broken,
They will even be snared and trapped.”
Daniel 2:34-35
Amplified Bible
34 As you were looking, a [a]stone was cut out without [human] hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them.(A) 35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together and became like the chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them could be found. And the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
