Daniel 9:21–27

²¹yea, ^swhiles I was speaking in prayer, even ^uthe man ^vGabriel, ^vwhom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, ^wtouched me ^xabout the time of the evening oblation. ²²And ^yhe informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding. ^23sAt the beginning of thy ^hsupplications the commandment came forth, and ^zI am come to shew thee; ^afor thou art greatly beloved: therefore ^bunderstand the matter, and consider the vision. ²⁴Seventy ^cweeks are determined upon thy people and upon ^dthy holy city, to finish ^ethe transgression, and ^fto make an end of sins, and ^gto make reconciliation for iniquity, and to ^hbring in everlasting righteousness, and ⁱto seal up the vision and prophecy, and ^kto anoint ^lthe most Holy. ^25bKnow therefore and understand, that ^mfrom the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem ⁿunto ^othe Messiah ^pthe Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, ^qeven in troublous times. ²⁶And ^rafter threescore and two weeks ^sshall ^oMessiah be cut off, ^tbut not for himself: and ^uthe people of the prince that shall come ^vshall destroy the city and ^wthe sanctuary; and ^xthe end thereof shall be ^ywith a flood, and unto ^xthe end of the war desolations are determined. ²⁷And he shall confirm ^zzthe covenant with ^amany for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for ^bthe overspreading of ^cabominations he shall make it desolate, ^deven until the consummation, and ^dthat determined ^eshall be poured upon ^fthe desolate.
