Daniel 2:5

The king [Nebuchadnezzar] replied, "My decision is final. You must tell me what I dreamed and what it means. If you do not, you will be torn to pieces and your [families'] houses will be [demolished and] turned into piles of rubble. [See also Dan. 3:29; Ezra 6:11, where the same words are used. Even today, in some parts of the Middle East, the houses of convicted criminals are demolished to erase their memory. In ancient times, there are also examples where temples and houses have been demolished and turned into public toilets to humiliate and dishonor the name of the former owner, see 2 Kings 10:27.]
