Daniel 9:24-27

Seventy Weeks and the Messiah

24 “Seventy ¹^aweeks have been determined for your people and for your holy city, to ²finish the transgression, to ³make an end of sin, to ^bmake atonement for iniquity, to bring in ^ceverlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and ⁴prophecy, and to anoint the Holy of Holies. 25 So you are to know and have insight that from the going out of a ¹^aword to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until ²^bMessiah the ^cPrince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be restored and rebuilt, with ³plaza and moat, even in times of distress. 26 Then after the sixty-two weeks the ¹Messiah will be ^acut off and have ²nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will ^bdestroy the city and the sanctuary. And ³its end will come with a ^cflood; even to the end ⁴there will be war; desolations are decreed. 27 And he will make a ¹firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will make sacrifice and grain offering cease; and on the wing of ²^aabominations will come one who ³makes desolate, even until a ^bcomplete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who ³makes desolate.”
