^3 (A)And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem ^(B)a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it.

⁴⁴ And ^(A)whoever falls on this stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, ^(B)it will grind him to powder.”

³⁴ You watched while a stone was cut out ^(A)without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. ^35 (B)Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together, and became ^(C)like chaff from the summer threshing floors; the wind carried them away so that ^(D)no trace of them was found. And the stone that struck the image ^(E)became a great mountain ^(F)and filled the whole earth.

¹⁸ Whoever falls on that stone will be ^(A)broken; but ^(B)on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.”

Idolatry Cut Off

13 “In that ^(A)day ^(B)a fountain shall be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for ^(C)uncleanness.

⁴⁴ And in the days of these kings ^(A)the God of heaven will set up a kingdom ^(B)which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; ^(C)it shall ^[a]break in pieces and ^[b]consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. ^45 (D)Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold—the great God has made known to the king what will come to pass after this. The dream is certain, and its interpretation is sure.”

⁸ and will go out ^(A)to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, ^(B)Gog and Magog, ^(C)to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. ^9 (D)They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.
