Daniel 9:24-26

24“Seventy 1 2weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to 3finish the transgression, to 4make an end of sin, to 5make atonement for iniquity, to bring in 6everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and 7prophecy and to anoint the most holy place.

25So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a 8 9decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until 10 11Messiah the 12Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with 13plaza and moat, even in times of distress.

26Then after the sixty-two weeks the 14Messiah will be 15cut off and have 16nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will 17destroy the city and the sanctuary. And 18its end will come with a 19flood; even to the end 20there will be war; desolations are determined.
